Independent Praise
“When I discovered MACS, they were such a refreshing change to previous service providers. In particular the flexible assistance times and on-call phone are outstanding features. MACS came along at a difficult point in my life where I felt trapped by other service offerings. They gave me the confidence to live independently by myself in the community.”
“My family have been with MACS for approximately 10 years and we wouldn’t think of going to another organisation for assistance with my brother. We have found that everyone at MACS (both office and support staff) are extremely helpful, friendly, caring and supportive. MACS is a stand out organisation for anyone who needs assistance or has a family member who requires assistance with their needs.”
“I enjoy the freedom and the flexibility that MACS provides. They have always been on hand when I need assistance which enables me to enjoy my independent way of living.”
“The availability of MACS service at night has been one of the factors enabling me to stay on in my own home. For eight years, seven nights a week, they have been punctual, reliable and never let me down.”
“I have been with MACS for many years now and can’t speak about the organisation highly enough. MACS is a fast and reliable service that helps me with all my needs.
MACS also has an overnight call-in service which, I have needed to use on a number of occasions. MACS is simply “peace of mind.”
“I’ve been using Mobile Attendant Care Service for many years now. The assistance they provide has become invaluable to me, providing a solution to a particular area of need that I, and many others, experience. There is no other organisation that I know of which provides the assistance that they can. The office staff and the workers they employ are professional and very client oriented. Their provision of service is excellent.”
“I have been a happy client of Mobile Attendant Care Service for more years than I care to remember. They have always looked after me in a caring friendly manner. The attendants who have visited me over the years have always been very eager to help me in any way they can. The service MACS provides to me in my opinion is unbeatable.”
