“Di, Paula, Ric, Bon and the staff at Care For You provide care for me.I have high-level quadriplegia as a result of a MVA just over 6 years ago. Care for You's comprehensive approach to my personal care takes the worries away from me and my family, who are unable to provide the necessary high need care I require in my or their homes. The competent care, humour, and compassion of my carers has been comforting for me and my whole family. I know all the staff on a first name basis and consider them friends more so than coordinators or directors of a care agency. The staff at Care for You make regular visits to my home and work like a family, they often spend quality time with me beyond the call of duty and cater to all my needs, often taking me or inviting me to events like the tennis, movies etc... They also support and really take excellent care of my carers and their occasional changing needs, they all really enjoy working for them. I have tried many agencies over the past 5 1/2 years including the largest and supposedly more reputable ones and can highly recommend the services of Di and the team at Care for You.” Mr A. Client
