Would not be in a position to recommend the service as this is decided via social work. The service provided initially has deteriorated with staff shortages and amendments to allocated times for care visits.

Reply from Heather Weir, Team Manager - Referrals and Assessments at HRM Homecare Services - South West

Thank you for taking the time to fill in the review card. Your feedback is very much appreciated. Unfortunately, staff shortages and amendments to allocated times for care visits are a sectoral wide issue in the present climate. HRM have ensured that every service user has received their visits throughout this particularly difficult time.

My mum has been receiving care from HRM for 7 years now and the care and service she gets is exemplary. One carer has been my mum's main carer over the last 7 years and continuously goes above and beyond to assist my mum's needs. Couldn't recommend highly enough!

Reply from Dominique Larkin, Marketing & Communications Manager at HRM Homecare Services - South West

Thank you very much for your kind words. We are delighted that you are happy with the service your mum receives from HRM Homecare.

My brother has nearly always lived on his own and has been very independent. He now has health issues and found it very difficult to accept that the time has come for a little help.
He is set in his ways so reluctantly accepted a Homecare visit once a day and now looks forward to seeing them.
Everyone
is really cheery and helpful.
He now needs more support and we are both really glad that HRM Homecare is available.
I have tried to step in and muddle through but it is becoming more difficult.
Homecare contacted me and discussed extra support as they know the help available and his individual needs.
I realise he needs professional help and that is exactly the service HRM Homecare provides.
We both have every confidence in HRM Homecare making a big difference in both our lives.

The carers who come in to my mum are fantastic, caring, compassionate and professional. They communicate well and mum clearly enjoys the chat as well as being aided to be as independent as possible. The manager however lets this service down, as always. Lack of communication, organisation and planning.
Would not choose the company but would do so for the carers.

I am very happy at the care my son receives and he is happy with them. They make sure he is okay and talk to him about what they are doing.

At first the pattern of support took time to settle. The staff care workers are friendly, helpful and flexible in adapting to limitations of our house. They have built a bond of trust with my wife and myself and are sensitive to our situation.

I am happy with the service provided. The only comment I can make is when carers are called to an emergency, there should be someone to cover their round while away. This happened to my mother last week, she didn't receive any care in the morning. She called the office but as she is quite deaf she didn't
understand what was being said, hopefully, this won't happen again. Her carers came at lunchtime to explain and apologize for not coming in the morning. That's my only complaint.

Reply from Heather Weir, Team Manager-Referrals and Assessments at HRM Homecare Services - South West

HRM can only apologize for your mother not receiving a service on that particular morning. We will ensure that this never happens again. We appreciate your feedback and are addressing your concerns with regard to emergency cover.

Have received great service from all the carers looking after my mum. Very caring and tolerant. Office staff are also great I’ve emailed a few times about some concerns about my mum and I have had immediate response with solution or suggestions. I’ve also noticed that recently there is more continuity
of carers which is great because they get to know my mum better and that is helpful.

Girls helping are very good. Have a chat with me while helping with my shower.
I don't like it when my times get changed - I like a shower at 9.30 as it helps prepare me for the weekend.

Fantastic, carers are very nice and accommodating. The only thing wrong is the time of arrival in the morning is meant to be here at ten, but not arriving till 12 noon.

Reply from Kelly Murray, Service Manager at HRM Homecare Services - South West

On speaking to our service user he did confirm that the variation to his morning time was a one-off when his scheduled support worker was held up at an emergency at the home of her previous service user. He appreciates and understands this couldn't be helped and he confirmed he is extremely happy with his carers, times and the services we provide.

My dad has only been receiving this care for a month so can only base it on care so far. All the girls have been friendly. Anything you ask they have supported on the matter if they can.

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 4.593 for HRM Homecare Services - South West is calculated as follows: ( (75 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 113 Ratings = 4.593
