Just under a year ago, my mum was discharged from the hospital with a care package with Focus Care. My mum is wheelchair-bound and bed-bound, so her needs can be quite complex. I was so worried about trusting anyone with my mum in her home that we had cameras put in, but all my worries disappeared very
quickly when we saw the level of care my mum was receiving. The care my mum receives is to a good professional standard. Not only is the personal care brilliant, but the respect and keeping my mum's dignity intact is second to none. The way the staff have gotten to build a relationship with her is irreplaceable. She trusts them wholeheartedly. I have found that if problems do arise, the company is very prompt at communicating and between us, we resolve any issues, even during out-of-hours. The carers really are caring and go above and beyond what they get paid to do.
I'm nothing but grateful for all the care my mum has so far received and continues to receive from focus care.

Overall impressed with the level of care and professionalism. My carer could manage my house if I wasn’t in it. Very trustworthy. The care I’m given is very professional and outstanding. Sometimes my carer can be the only person I see during the day.

My nan was discharged from the hospital with many different health issues she is now unable to get out of bed unaided and requires the use of equipment. My family and I have now felt the need to put a camera up as they used over 12 packets of baby wipes in 6 days as well as over 3 months’ supply of
pads. I emailed the manager to file a formal complaint around many different issues we had noticed with their careers, this email took 5 hours to write out and has yet to be responded to 5 days later. Now don’t get me wrong I do understand if people are 'off sick' but considering one of our complaints was over oxygen misuse and another over cross-contamination there should have been someone able to help with our issues.
Instead, the way this company has dealt with these issues is to ignore them and serve notice on my nan instead which to me means they are unable to provide adequate care and not willing to try to improve. This company needs shutting down and we will be seeing them in court.

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 4.200 for Focus Care Link - Waltham Forest Branch is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 30 Ratings = 4.2

  • 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 Focus Care Link - Waltham Forest Branch is based on 4 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 4.25

  • 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.
