"Meridian Care looked after my father until he went into a residential home earlier this month and I would like to thank them for all they did for him. They initially came out to do an assessment on him and thereafter a member of their team came out daily. His main carer and was very understanding and
patient with my father and I cannot thank him enough. Other carers covered his days off or holidays and they were very good too. My father could be moody at times and would refuse a wash very frequently but he was very good with him. I had had previous experience with another carer company for my mother and the difference with Meridian was the continuity of the same carer as much as possible. I also found I was able to speak with the office of Meridian and the staff there were very helpful and knew sufficient information about Dad to always help me and to put my mind at rest. I would highly recommend Meridian Care."
