What our clients say
From individuals and families to GPs and housing professionals — here is what people say about working with Karken Healthcare.
The medication delivery service has been a lifeline. I was struggling to get to the pharmacy after my hip replacement and Karken stepped in immediately. Reliable, kind, and always on time.
Margaret T.
Client — Medication Delivery & MyMeds Reminders
Medication DeliveryMy father was discharged from hospital with very little support in place. Karken Healthcare filled that gap within 48 hours — practical help, friendly visits, and real peace of mind for our family.
David R.
Family member — Post-Op Recovery Support
Post-Op RecoveryAs a housing support officer, I refer clients to Karken regularly. They are responsive, professional, and genuinely understand the floating support model. My clients consistently report positive experiences.
Sarah M.
Housing Support Officer — Professional Referrer
Floating SupportI was very isolated after my husband passed. The companionship visits gave me something to look forward to each week. My support worker is wonderful — patient, warm, and genuinely interested in my life.
Patricia H.
Client — Companionship & Practical Support
CompanionshipKarken delivered my new glasses the same day my optician called them in. I cannot drive and the bus is difficult for me. It sounds simple but it made a real difference to my day.

Client — Optical & Healthcare Product Delivery
Optical DeliveryWe referred a patient with complex housing needs and limited support network. Karken had a plan in place within two days. The communication throughout has been excellent — exactly what our discharge team needs.

Back home and back on her feet
Background
After a planned knee replacement, a 74-year-old client was discharged with limited family nearby. Her GP surgery referred her to Karken Healthcare for a four-week recovery support package.
Outcome
Daily check-in visits, prescription collection, and light meal preparation allowed her to recover safely at home. By week three she was managing independently. No readmission. No crisis.

Sustaining a tenancy, rebuilding confidence
Background
A 32-year-old man with a learning disability was at risk of losing his tenancy following a period of poor mental health. His housing association referred him to Karken for floating support.
Outcome
Over 12 weeks, his support worker helped him establish daily routines, manage his bills, and engage with his local community. His tenancy was sustained and he transitioned to independent living.
