Ethos Care has been looking after my nan for some time now, and I would highly recommend them. The carers are great, sympathetic and have been fantastic during the pandemic especially. During a time that has been very worrying for everyone, they ensured the whole family felt safe and comfortable in
their care by following all guidelines, wearing their PPE, and making sure we were aware they have all been vaccinated. We couldn't have coped without them and would recommend them to any family. Thank you!

Carers are friendly and have the best interests of their clients at heart. Managers are quick to respond to queries, offering flexibility in appointments times when needed. We find the nurse buddy an excellent application in keeping up-to-date with our loved ones care. We thank Ethos for the support
they have given our family.

We engaged the services of Ethos carers in December 2019 after mum had returned home from hospital. From the very first visit to meet my until now the management and carers have shown professionalism, understanding, amazing kindness and quality care often going far and beyond what we expected. In mums
words, everyone is "helpful, kind and understanding". They work with and for us all mum and family.

I used Ethos Care to look after an elderly friend of mine. My friend had to have a bed and commode installed in her front room downstairs as she was unable to go upstairs. The staff visited three times a day to help with washing, dressing, going to the toilet, preparing meals and various other chores.
They fulfilled their tasks with diligence and reliability. A daily timetable was drawn up at the outset which was adhered to throughout but able to be modified if necessary. An email link called a 'Family Portal' meant I could see what was happening after every visit by a carer. I found this to be most useful. In conclusion, I would like to say 'thank you' to the staff who looked after my friend. They were very conscientious but also had patience when necessary.

Wow! Sadly moving out of the area, as otherwise, we would have been using Ethos for years to come. You hope for professionalism and expertise. That was delivered and I can’t remember a single bad visit, and certainly no issues, throughout my time with Ethos. But what stood out was the empathy and friendliness
of the carers who visited me. A very special group of people, with a reliable office back-up to call on with timing changes, questions etc. Thoroughly recommend.

I arranged a 1-hour daycare package with Ethos for my mother in November 2018, and Ethos has now been providing this service for 6 months. Mum has been struggling increasingly with dementia symptoms and was widowed just after we engaged Ethos. Mum has been very satisfied with Ethos, despite some initial
resistance about needing a care package. I have found Ethos to be a very well managed and professional organisation, and they have been very proactive in staying in touch with me and supporting any extra needs that Mum has from time to time, such as help with getting to health appointments. This has been really important to me, as I am based abroad and I'm able to visit only once a month.

I have been very happy with the care that my relative received throughout. The care plan was thorough, all the carers were on time (if held up, they would phone us) and they were very kind, gentle and efficient. On the days that I was present, and carers didn't need to make a meal etc, then they stayed
for the duration and talked to him. Managers were always available and the person who usually answered the phone was so helpful and friendly. Hospital staff found exactly the same.

My mother was supported at home with twice daily visits by Ethos for many years. I found the service to be both reasonably priced, extremely reliable and a huge help and comfort to know she was in such good hands. I cannot fault the level of care and empathic attitude delivered by the Ethos carers.
Mum regarded several of them as friends. When she needed additional visits during various periods Ethos were responsive and obliging. I would thoroughly recommend anyone looking for a reliable and caring company to support their elderly loved ones in their own home to look no further than Ethos. Mum moved from Ethos to the associated care home in Burton, Christchurch, when should could no longer stay at home and this was an equally positive experience for her.

In my recent experience, the staff that have attended to my mother have been kind and respectful to her. In general, the staff are on time, have been polite and helpful to myself during a difficult period when my father was in hospital. I am particularly grateful for the way that one carer handled the
situation with my father after his fall.

Ethos care services provide excellent personal care for my husband who has Dementia and other issues. Their services are given four times each day and are always provided with dignity, kindness and a cheerful smile. The carers also give me, as the service user's wife, support, and I don't worry as
I used to do. I couldn't manage without them as we want my husband to remain at home rather than residential care.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.679)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.679) out of 10 for Ethos Care Services is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.679 for Ethos Care Services is calculated as follows: ( (58 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.679

  • 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 Ethos Care Services is based on 14 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.
