Mum seems satisfied with the care she is receiving. Mum thinks the girls who call are pleasant and attentive. Sometimes Mum will not ask for things because she thinks its a bother - I have reassured her that if she needs anything to ask, and if they can, they will. Only one issue a couple of times,
carers have been late and she tends to panic, but this was soon rectified.

The staff are all very good. Very patient at times with me because of my M.S. When my body doesn't work and I need more time to move they are very understanding as not to try and hurry me and not everyone gets it.

Lovely to hear, we always emphasize during training that good care cannot be rushed so its great to hear feedback that this is being delivered in such a great manner.

Heydays have been fantastic with my nana since they started caring for her in October 2018. They have delivered an outstanding standard of care. They are reliable, friendly and go above and beyond for my nana. My nana's previous care providers weren't great, so she was a bit nervous of Heydays coming
in, but it didn't take long for her to see the difference in standard and even began to look forward to their carers visits and refers to them now as more like friends than carers. Heydays are also great to speak to and work well with the family. If I have ever needed to speak to them about anything I've found them to be extremely approachable and friendly with a great attitude and work ethic. Could not recommend this company enough.

Lovely to read your review and so pleased to hear that the carers are known more as friends, and have restored your Nana's faith in homecare.
We think we have an amazing team so its great to hear what a good job they do enriching the lives of others.

I have been a client of Heydays Care for several years and cannot speak more highly of them.
Every carer goes above and beyond to make sure my needs are taken care of and I am grateful to call many of them my friends.
If I do have a problem, it is always dealt with promptly and fairly.

Reply from Kelly Shaw at Heydays Care and Support Services Ltd

Thank you for the lovely comments, we are so pleased that our carers are seen as friends as this is a huge compliment to the staff and it shows the relationships that have formed are truly great.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.875)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.875) out of 10 for Heydays Care and Support Services Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.875 for Heydays Care and Support Services Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (63 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.875

  • 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 Heydays Care and Support Services Ltd 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.
