I could not fault any of the home carers at all, in fact, they made my mum's final months the best they could, they went over and above to ensure all her needs were met. The ladies all were trustworthy, lovely, helpful, knowledgeable and timely. The care coordinator was always helpful and friendly.


I

cannot thank Meridian enough and I'd highly recommend them as a company, their carers that worked in Deal are assets to the company.

As a family, we have found Meridian Community Care to be a very reliable service. My mother has been extremely fortunate in her Carers, who have looked after her with care, compassion, dignity and above all with a sense of humour. Not only have they looked after my mother but they have become good friends
and worked in partnership with the family.
We have always felt listened to and if there have been any issues things have always been dealt with promptly. Their professional service has allowed my mother to remain independent in her home.

I have found carers very helpful, punctual and supportive. My husband has not always been cooperative but all his carers managed to cope with him cheerfully.
All carers came to work appropriately dressed and had a very businesslike, though friendly air.
A very good service all round.

Meridian Care has provided exactly what they promised. Staff names were given before visiting started and the same carers always came. Care was consistent and adaptable to my mother's needs as they changed. Mum had a main carer who was adaptable, kind, gentle and friendly. All appointments were kept
promptly, any unforeseen change in staff was notified prior to the visit.
There was never any problem with invoicing, cancelled visits were never charged for. The management were so flexible with short notice changes, they felt like part of the family.
I trusted them all completely.

We have had Meridian Community Care Ltd taking care of my sister who has dementia. She has now been moved to a nursing home. Whilst in the care of Meridian Community Care Ltd she was treated with kindness and dignity. The office staff were also very polite and showed concern for my sister's welfare.

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 4.901 for Meridian Community Care Ltd (Canterbury) is calculated as follows: ( (64 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.901

  • 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 Meridian Community Care Ltd (Canterbury) is based on 12 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.
