Because of my partner's condition, I was forced to have care 4 times a day. My partner and I were daunted by this prospect but the care and professionalism of the company have allayed our fears. Any issues we have had, have been quickly resolved to our satisfaction.

I have been with Moorlands Care since April 2015 and have found them most satisfactory and would most likely recommend them to anyone needing care.

I have used a cleaner form Moorlands Care Home since May 2015. They come for 2 hours once a week and fo a quick clean of my house. This includes changing my bed and ironing the sheets and pillowcases which I have put into the washing machine and dried. They will help with anything I can not do myself
such as tidying the cupboards or cleaning windows. The only problem is that they are not allowed travelling time and their arrival time varies considerably depending on where the last job was. I couldn't manage without their help.

Reply from Lauren Raper, Deputy Manager at Moorlands Care

Hi
Thank you for your kind review. We are glad to hear you are happy with the cleaning service we provide. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to predict exactly what time the carer will be there for your call due to a number of factors. We do try our best to be as accurate as possible and it is our policy to contact clients if a staff member is running more than 15 minutes late. I can understand your frustrations and if there was any other way around this we would do it. Thank you again for your review

We have found Moorlands Care to be very professional and always attend at the prescribed time. Anything that is requested is undertaken swiftly. My mother has found her carers to be very friendly and demonstrate genuine care. They clearly put the care of my mother as a priority and are very reliable.
It's been a first-class service.

The ladies who do the home care side of Moorlands are really exceptional. After Dad's Parkinson's Disease had progressed to a point where we could no longer struggle along on our own, we tried several agencies in the Darlington area. None were what we needed until we were fortunate enough to find these
lovely people. They helped take some of the strain off me and developed a very good relationship with a strong man at his most vulnerable.
The ladies in the office are amazing too and will sort out any problems or concerns on the side of either staff or client in the most respectful way they can.
If only our governments would place the true value of the work that Carers do and pay them a good wage for less gruelling hours!
Thanks for all you did for us - you know who you are.

Moorlands Care provides daily care in the home of our neighbour. The service is superb. They have a great team of care workers, which my friend is very attached to. They are always on time and nothing is a trouble to them. All very obliging. We all like the main care worker for his certainty and good
manners. We would strongly recommend Moorlands to anybody requiring care at home.

I receive several hours of care each week. It consists of some domestic help, such as vacuuming, dusting and general tidying up. Also I am accompanied to the supermarket and assisted with shopping. I am regularly helped with showers. All of theses matters I could not do for myself, so are valuable to
me.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.958)

Overview of Review Score

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 4 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 4.708 for Moorlands Care is calculated as follows: ( (18 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.708

  • 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 Moorlands Care is based on 4 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 4.25

  • 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.
