Thank you so much for taking the time to review us. We are all so pleased that your parents, who you thought might be a little apprehensive about needing homecare, embraced it and felt it has worked out so well. It's great to hear that all aspects of the care were so good. Thank you for recommending us to others. We really appreciate it.

Thank you for your 5-star review. I can't believe we have been supporting your mother with care at home for 4 years now. Time has gone so quickly and I was so pleased to see her continuing to look so well at our annual carol service.

Thank you for your 5* review recognising many of the different aspects of your experience with Home Instead. We do work hard to ensure the best possible experience for our clients and provide more than would generally be expected from a care provider. We loved the photos of you both enjoying your Valentine's Day meal and knowing that we had helped you celebrate in style. It was great fun too.

Thank you for your heartfelt review of our care services. Supporting your parents as their needs have changed, from a couple of hours a week to live in care, has been a privilege and we are so pleased that no matter what stage their needs, our office team and care professionals were able to provide the high-quality care that they deserved. It's always sad to see clients' health deteriorate as they age but to be able to support them to live out their final years in the comfort of their own homes, surrounded by their memories and loved ones, as they have always wished to do is very rewarding and something the team take pride in doing well. I'm so pleased your siblings also found the support provided and resulting peace of mind to be comforting. We really enjoyed working together with your family, to support your parents, and are grateful to you for the positive relationships we built with you all over the past five years. The team were very fond of your parents. They are missed.

Thank you for your kind review. It was our pleasure to support your aunt and uncle over a five year period enabling them to remain at home, together, until the end of their lives, as they had always wished. When we first met them they were devastated because a period of ill health of one of them had led to them living apart for the first time in their long marriage; one at home and one in a care home. We promised that we would provide care that would enable them to be reunited at home and are so pleased we were able to achieve this. The team supporting your aunt and uncle were exceptional and a couple of them supported them from the first to the last day - a great example of the continuity of care that matters to us at Home Instead. We worked hard to ensure that the care provided met the needs of both your aunt and uncle who had very different and, in later years, complex needs and we are also pleased that you, as their family, also felt supported. Thank you.

This is such a lovely review. Thank you for recommending our services to others. Supporting your dad was such a pleasure and it was lovely working together with you to ensure that all his needs were met. We miss you both but think of you often when we catch sight of your dad's book, that you kindly gave us, on the shelf in the office. Thanks for sharing your lives with us.

Thank you for your 5 star review. It's great to know that our care professionals have got to know your father well enough that they can reassure and relax him during times of confusion. They are a great team and I'll pass on your kind comments to them. It will mean a lot.

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 4.964 for Home Instead Bromley, Chislehurst & Orpington is calculated as follows: ( (405 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 420 Ratings = 4.964
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 relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Home Instead Bromley, Chislehurst & Orpington is based on 70 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.
