Both my father in law and my father…

Both my father in law and my father were cared for by Agincare in their Edgehill Care Home and both experiences have left me feeling as if Edgehill was a second home to me.
All staff were so friendly and caring on all levels.
I cannot praise the level of care and commitment highly enough and Edgehill is a place I would have no reservations in recommending.

Excellent service and communications

From the moment I contacted Agincare regarding caring for my mum the communications about how they can help have been excellent. Within a week we've had a lovely visitor to talk things through and come up with a plan which will start this week. There are options to revise the plan at short notice as mum's needs change. I feel confident that mum will be able to stay living at home for now,as she would like, with the extra care provided by staff from Agincare.

Nothing is too much trouble

Nothing is too much trouble. My father Howard Mears was made to feel at home instantly. He was used to doing things his way and at his time, but once he had adjusted to the new life style he felt very happy. It's an awful high amount to have to pay for self funding care, but the support he has gotten all the way, and it's only been his first week, it's money well spent. Edgehill Care Home is brilliant, but the system takes far too much advantage financially on help that is so needed!
Having said that, the staff at Edgehill Care Home already feel like family with their attitudes and CARE 🙏🤗😎

Waterside Care home is an excellent home for your loved ones. The first thing you notice is the cleanness of the home. It’s fresh and inviting. The staff are really friendly. I visited a close family member and was so pleased to see how well taken care of she is.

Dad's care

Dad has only been in a week and a bit so too early to tell for sure but a few teething issues so far.

To be fair I suspect most of these are down to us not understanding the processes and what is expected of us.

My wife and carer were interacting wonderfully when I arrived at 1.45 pm just one hour and a quarter into day 4. Carer had done a very good job but was keen to leave as soon as I returned. I would have appreciated a full debriefing of all that happened

My fresh eyes on Aginccare

Being newly introduced to Aginccare, my overall opinion on this company I must say is a cut above the rest. Compared to other larger companies I have dealt with, Agin stands apart when witnessing real outcomes of what they do, compared to what they say.

The motivational force behind everything they do is wholeheartedly based on the individual using their services because I have felt it and I have witnessed it.

I wish I had found Agincare sooner. You can feel the benefits of the fact that this is a family ran provider, rather than a big chain which I have felt lost and hit dead ends with in the past.

Thankyou Agincare for truly reflecting the services you provide!

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
We are very sorry to hear that your time at St Peter’s Park did not meet expectations, particularly due to the interaction you describe with one member of our team. This is clearly not the standard of care or professionalism we aim to provide.
We are also concerned to learn that you did not receive a response following your written complaint. This is not acceptable, and we sincerely apologise for the lack of communication. All concerns should be acknowledged and addressed in a timely and respectful manner.
Your comments regarding your mum’s progress have also been noted, and we are sorry that you felt her recovery reached a plateau during her stay. Ensuring positive outcomes and continuous support is incredibly important to us.
We would very much welcome the opportunity to investigate this further and respond to you directly. Please contact us at customercare@agincare.com so that we can review your concerns in full and ensure they are properly addressed.

Respect, Be kind and be professional


I held a senior role at St Peter’s Park Care Home in Bexhill, but resigned just after 2 weeks due to deeply concerning management practices and a complete lack of support. Communication was consistently aggressive rather than professional, and there was little to no regard for staff wellbeing. The nursing team was unwelcoming, with one nurse explicitly stating, “It’s my way or no way,” reflecting a culture with no sense of teamwork. This atmosphere is clearly echoed in the last CQC report, which highlights failures in leadership and staff support. I have never worked in such a harsh environment, and I chose to prioritise my mental health. While the carers were truly fantastic, they were let down by the leadership above them. My predecessor also lasted only a week, was this investigated, or were concerns dismissed in favour of protecting existing staff?
I wish the new manager all the best and hope she receives the support this role demands.

Good experience with recruitment

I applied for a Healthcare role with Agincare and had a good experience. The process was simple and communication was clear throughout. The team was professional and overall, a positive experience.

I would not recommend this care company…

I would not recommend this care company based on our experience.

As first-time users of care services, we found the overall standard to be disappointing and, at times, distressing for my elderly parents.

On the first visit, the carer arrived without any identification and was not in uniform, which was very unsettling. There were also repeated issues with timing—carers would arrive as early as 7am, knocking loudly and repeatedly ringing the doorbell, despite being asked to come later due to one patient returning late from dialysis and needing adequate rest.

We also experienced a lack of appropriate staffing, particularly female carers to assist a vulnerable elderly woman with personal care. This resulted in her going without a wash for an entire week, which is unacceptable.

In addition, there was no consistency in carers or visit times, with different individuals arriving at varying times each day.

Overall, our experience suggests that this company does not prioritise the wellbeing and dignity of its patients.
