The carer is extremely patient, caring and loving. She takes time to understand my mum and give her the attention and care she needs including washing, cleaning, cooking and getting involved with family events outside her duties.

I have been with several agencies and I can say that Caremark is the only agency that I have found to be professional, caring, supportive, etc, etc. The carers look after my mum like they are family members. Thank you all so much for every support provided.

The carer has been fantastic and really looking after my father-in-law in a caring and sensitive nature. Very happy with the care provided and more importantly the carer has built a nice trusting relationship with my father-in-law so he gets the support he needs.

Caremark has been looking after my mum's care for the last 6 years.
They have been fantastic in their care and they have a team of well-trained carers and administrators. My mum was in hospital after a fall and for the last month she has been bed-bound and the team has looked after her so well.

Mum's had care with Caremark since February. It has been most helpful that she has been able to communicate and relate well with carers. Carers are friendly and patient.

My mum was with Caremark for almost 7 years. She died during Covid-19 so I've only just got around do doing this review. She died from terminal cancer. She was treated with the utmost dignity and respect. Her carers were more like friends and they all took great care of her, they brought up her confidence
and put a smile on her face daily. She enjoyed all care calls. She came out of her shell. Carers were always on time, smiling and happy to care for an assist my mum with daily tasks.

Caremark is a very caring agency. They always make sure that my mum is cared for and is happy. Especially during challenging times, they have been juggling around carers to make sure care is provided. They are also very good with communication skills. Definitely recommend them to anyone.

I have received care from Caremark (Harrow) for many years and have been very pleased with the service. All the staff are kind, caring, reliable and professional. There are regular visits by a supervisor who checks that I am happy and I know that I can always contact them if I have a problem. Caremark
is very efficiently run and I would recommend them to others.

I am happy with the carer. She takes me shopping in the wheelchair and comes to hospital appointments. She arranges laundry and does some cleaning.

Reply from Girish Khubchandani, Managing Dir at Caremark Harrow

Our carers always try their best to enhance their clients' quality of life by assisting them to access the community and take them out shopping or to the cinema as well as hospital and GP appointments.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.990)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.990) out of 10 for Caremark Harrow is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 49 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 49 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.990 for Caremark Harrow is calculated as follows: ( (291 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 294 Ratings = 4.99

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Caremark Harrow is based on 49 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
