Testimonials

After more than twenty years in the homecare industry we have met and cared for some wonderful people. Here’s what some of them have to say:

As Donna has no doubt let you know, Mum died peacefully in Christchurch Hospital Emergency early yesterday morning. Her passing was quick in the end. Donna was extremely helpful and supportive to us all on Friday night in helping Mum accept the need to call an ambulance and go to hospital. I spoke to her last night to let her know how great she was.

I just want to say again how much we, as Sylvia’s family, have appreciated the exceptionally caring and experienced, professional overnight MS team who have cared for Mum during the last three and a half weeks of her life. We couldn’t have kept Mum at home as she wished without your support. We valued the continuity of care that she received from your team; Esther, Donna, Vicki, Anne and Trish, each one of whom provided sensitive and competent care. Also, l’ve appreciated Helen’s daily phone calls and superb communication which kept me “in the loop” when l wasn’t able to be here.

On behalf of my father, siblings and wider family, please pass on our deepest gratitude for all that your team did for Mum. We will highly recommend your service to other families who are looking for expert and compassionate care for their loved ones.

I don’t know how I would have coped without the help of the carer after my operation – I couldn’t even fold my washing let alone hang it out! I didn’t want to rely on my family all the time – having the carer take me out to get my shopping let me keep my independence

Ethel wanted to stay in her home and everyone drew comfort from having such genuine and competent carers helping her.

The two ladies, Delores and Helen were the loveliest, most trustworthy, caring ladies you could possibly have provided. I can no speak highly enough about the ladies. They showed total commitment to my mother’s care and wellbeing in every possible way, at every moment of the day and night.

Miranda Smith Homecare are very responsive. We have used them for emergency care with less than a days’ notice. They have been easy to contact, always have coverage and are very responsive to our requests.

I have to travel on a monthly basis and would find this impossible if it wasn’t for the live in carers who stay with my mother. It is an unbelievable service to have a team of people who can live in and provide 24 hour care as required.

Miranda Smith Homecare has provided kind, capable and empathetic carers, whom I feel they choose carefully based on their knowledge of my needs and requirements. Miranda Smith Homecare really does place a big emphasis on trying to slot the right carer in with each client which is so important.

Thank you Miranda Smith Homecare for giving me my life back and looking after my parents so well.

Jill, Wellington

Following the earthquakes Mum was scared to be alone at night. Just knowing the carer was there for the sleepover service meant she (and I) slept better.

Jane, Wellington

At a time when we were feeling very helpless and could not control our family member’s care from a distance, Miranda Smith Homecare provided what we could not give her. We very much appreciated your services and were very pleased with your concern, the level of care provided and the professional manner in which everything was handled. Thank you!

Miranda Smith Homecare’s team receive high marks from our families for their reliability, care, knowledge and easy assimilation to the challenging situations of Parkinsons clients.

Parkinsons Society, Auckland

Just knowing that Mum and Dad were getting a great home-cooked meal and some help about the house meant I could relax while overseas.

Emma, Christchurch

I used the services of Miranda Smith Homecare from the time my mother was first and very suddenly diagnosed with vascular dementia. At a time when I was myself in shock and unsure of what assistance was available, the office team at Miranda Smith were fantastic – they were highly professional and also extremely reassuring and supportive and helpful to me.
