My mother received excellent help and support from the carers who were all very kind, patient, efficient and reliable. They developed a good rapport with my mother and were always friendly and courteous which my mother appreciated. Office staff dealt with questions and additional requests promptly and
effectively.

The care my Mum gets is personal to her. She actually thinks that her carer is part of the family and has known her for years. In the midst of less personal visits from social services this is a visit she looks forward to. For our part as a family struggling to care and cope with dementia it has quite
simply changed our lives and lifted a burden from our shoulders.

Everything is going as well as expected, my mother is very happy and comfortable with all the girls and that is the most important thing. We have changed the times a few times and this has been dealt with in a professional way and to our satisfaction. All in all we are perfectly happy with the level
of care mum is receiving.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.831) out of 10 for Home Instead (Glasgow North) is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.831 for Home Instead (Glasgow North) is calculated as follows: ( (52 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.831

  • 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 Home Instead (Glasgow North) is based on 10 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.
