Wendy’s experience with DANS

Wendy, 74, was referred to home care by her GP due to a range of medical conditions. She says the support she receives from DANS has made a huge difference to her life.

Practical support that goes further

For Wendy, DANS provides more than basic care. The team helps with everyday tasks like washing, even going out of their way to peg it on the line or bring it back in when needed.

She describes DANS as a wonderful, thoughtful and reliable organisation where nothing feels like too much trouble.

Care delivered with warmth

What stands out most to Wendy is the attitude of the carers. They arrive with a smile, leave with a smile, and help Wendy feel brighter too.

One carer even brought Wendy flowers from her garden and a cupcake to share with her husband, a small gesture that meant a great deal.

Something to look forward to

Wendy looks forward to Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, when her carers visit. She describes them as “beautiful faces” who make her day and says the staff are clearly well trained.

Wendy’s recommendation

Wendy says she cannot speak highly enough of DANS. Her advice to anyone considering their services is simple:

Accept them with open arms, because they’re so good.
