Uniquely, Great Park Homecare does not bill for a visit which is cancelled with 24 hours notice.
So lunches out with loved ones and unplanned hospital stays, will not incur fees.
Understanding that family members do not always live locally, Great Park Homecare fees cover the day to day provisioning of support, such as ordering & managing medications and equipment, by engaging with appropriate professionals such as GPs, DIstrict Nurses and Occupational Therapists.
Great Park Homecare has a Review Score of 10 (9.983) out of 10, based on 10 reviews in the last 2 years. Over all time Great Park Homecare has 51 reviews.

Thank you for your feedback, Glenda. We are delighted that you felt our care services to be of an excellent standard across the board. Whilst it is challenging to find several 'Mary Poppins', our recruitment process is very robust and stringent to ensure that we hire not only compassionate carers but also staff who have a 'must do' attitude, show innovation and smart thinking plus demonstrate good written and spoken English. We are pleased that your friend's dignity, choices and wishes were respected by her carers.

We're pleased that since your long tenure with us, you've been able to continue living independently & safely at home. We do not discriminate against "various nationalities & cultural backgrounds'" & are very proud of our diverse & inclusive workforce (95% British), who are all carefully recruited, trained & developed to competently undertake their demanding roles. Indeed, one of our main stringent recruitment criteria amongst others is for good spoken & written English by all Company Staff. The Company's responsible & robust compliance with UK's GDPR legislation & Confidentiality Policy can be mistaken as a 'secretive culture'. All staff are contractually obliged to protect staff & client data. Your carers have always gone above & beyond the call of duty to ensure your safety & positive well-being & your Christmases & birthdays have been recognised. Our Key Worker System has always ensured the effective & safe delivery of your care, meeting your exacting preferences & outcomes.

The Review Score of 10 (9.983) out of 10 for Great Park Homecare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 5.0 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.
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 4.983 for Great Park Homecare is calculated as follows: ( (57 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 58 Ratings = 4.983
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 Great Park Homecare 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.

With over 20 years as a business professional in client service management, Adrian’s previous personal experience of the home care industry, to find appropriate and reliable care for family members, left him with the deep feeling that care provision could and should be much better. More specifically, client communication and quality of service was severely lacking from existing care providers. As a strong advocate of volunteering and proactive Chairman of Windsor Mencap, Adrian has the experience, skills and empathy to fully understand clients’ individual needs and find bespoke care solutions for them. His greatest strength lies in his ability to remain calm and engage collaboratively to ensure a positive and happy outcome for all. Adrian has qualified as a Dementia Friend Champion and is keen to host local information sessions for the community to share his awareness of Dementia.
Adrian said: "I want to wake up in the morning knowing that during the day ahead we will improve the lives of our clients, then to go to sleep at night knowing that my carers felt well trained, equipped and respected for their amazing work."
