Our Partners & Testimonials
Maria is the most caring person I know. She goes above and beyond for her clients. Maria helped me on my journey to become a self employed carer myself a couple of years ago, the best decision I've ever made.
PCN is really useful, has helped me grow a self employed carer, thinking about things I hadn’t thought of before and how important other things are. I am now fully booked thanks to help from Maria. Definitely worth joining
Maria is very professional and efficient with any of my queries. I feel fully supported. PCN is like a comfort blanket for Private Carers/companions.
Pros: The induction process was quite quick and in depth and you learnt a lot both hands on and taught. The staff in the office and out in community are very warm and personable. A range of support networks are available from fellow carers to supervisors and management. It’s a job that makes you feel like you make a positive impact.Cons: In community it can be difficult to manage timings and physically demanding when you’re walking a lot.
The supervisor had preprinted the agreement based on the incorrect referral. This was subsequently discussed, revised and agreed between all parties.Unfortunately, the supervisor did not update the information at the office. Consequently, Carers are not adhering to the revised times.This has had a negative impact on the client’s health and wellbeing, their family and other health care visitors.As you are paying for Carers to work to your agreed schedule, it is seriously worth considering other care agencies this before you commission Professional Carers.
The recruitment process was quick and done well, the training before starting the job was great, very informative and the team were amazing, very helpful if you ever needed to ask a questionleah millington
Brilliant company and very professional! Fantastic carers, always on time and great at motivating my mum. Thankyou! X
I have worked with professional carers for around 4 weeks now, I started my 3 day induction the week after my interview which was thorough and covered all bases that I would need to know once I was out working , once my DBS was back I did 2 shadow shifts which really gave me a feel for what I would be doing once working alone and this really help me when I went out on my first independent run. The staff are great and are there if you need anything and I am thoroughly enjoying my time with the company and can’t wait to see what’s ahead for me.Kirsty cooper
Almost three years working for professional carers, I've never really felt valued by management until working here. Training is frequent and mandatory. There is always someone available if you have an issue. All the staff I've come across in or out the office are lovely. I've heard a few negative things about other care companies I'm happy I'm at the right one. The clients always come first and the carers are paid better than most. This is also the first job as a carer (of 20 years) that I've been paid over minimum age.
As a new member to Professional Carers I have settled into what I feel a lovely compassionate company within 3 weeks. The recruitment, online training and thorough induction/training has all been done correctly and was extremely useful. Following some not so nice experiences, Professional Carers are as they say, caring to their service users and staff also, many thanks
