“After losing my mum in June 2022, Radfield carers started helping look after my father. At an extremely difficult time, they were kind, supportive and most of all professional. I honestly couldn’t have coped without their sensitive advice. The lady in head office went out of her way to accommodate my requested schedule. All the members of the care team treated my dad with respect and consideration and saw him as person rather than just a client.Thank you for your help. I couldn’t have looked after my dad without you!”
