Caremark has been providing home care services to my mother for the past five months, and the carers are always very punctual, professional and respectful; they always bring to our attention any welfare concerns they may have. First-class management backup is also being provided.

The carers treat my mum with respect. When they carry out her personal care they are usually very gentle with her. If I’m at home I can often hear them chatting away with her. They’ve probably heard her life history a number of times! If the evening time could be after seven o’clock that would help
me organise her injection and meal.

Very pleased with the care supplied to my father. He can be very obnoxious as he has Alzheimer's, so can be extremely difficult to handle at times. However, the carers are very professional and know exactly how to handle him, so he is in very capable hands. 100% recommend Caremark. All carers are very
polite and helpful.

My brother's three carers are all professional, friendly, caring and it is clear they have a passion for care work. They have built a relationship with him in a short space of time and he enjoys spending time with them, the carers are engaged in various activities with him and they are very proactive
and provide an amazing service.

Generally good, polite carers and diligent in my wife's health concerns and advice given. Visit times, correct agreed times in the morning but some teatime calls a little early and evening (last call on the day) are not always of agreed times, sometimes half an hour before agreed times which makes my
wife longer in bed than she really wants. I understand this cannot always be avoided, due to the last client visits.

Reply from Noemi Varga, Active Care Manager at At Home Care

Thank you for your kind words. We are grateful you can understand the struggles with allocated time, but during this pandemic, it is quite hard to meet all needs at the same time. We will continue to aim to provide a later bed call for your wife. Kind regards.

Never had carers for Dad before so not sure what to expect - the carers are very professional, caring and so nice. They are so helpful with suggestions for Dad - just cannot fault anyone from the office staff to the carers - all such lovely people. Excellent service.

The manager and carer were supportive with me, when I was feeling low. They stopped me from hurting myself and wouldn't leave until I calmed down after the medical team went.
From this, I can see a very caring company.

I wanted to say a massive thank you to Caremark (Dacorum & St Albans). Without Caremark's team of lovely carers, I don’t know how I would have coped. Caring for Mum on my own had been increasingly getting more and difficult for me, but since Caremark have been in Mum's life she has improved tenfold.
I thought I was going to lose her a few months ago, but with Caremark's support, care and looking after my Mum's wellbeing, she now has her quality of life back. You are her Angels.
Thank you.

I cannot thank Caremark enough for doing exactly that, and that is caring. I live almost 300 miles away from my dad, and with his dementia and other issues, it's been a worry every day, until this fantastic agency was found for us. If there are any issues, I am notified and between us, we can sort it
out at that time.
The staff, from the carers to management, are so lovely, kind and very much understanding and importantly my dad as well as myself think they are amazing. They always make time for us and nothing is too much trouble for them.
I imagine at times their job can be challenging but they remain professional, kind, caring and understanding.
After a previous bad experience from an agency, Caremark have been an absolute delight and I would definitely recommend them.
Thank you all so much.

My dad has been with Caremark now for 3 years and I just had to write and say Caremark are a fantastic and very caring company, all the carers are amazing and the office staff too. I feel that my dad's care has always been at a very high standard and nothing is too much trouble. There have been a few
times where my dad has not been well and the swift thinking of the carer to call for a doctor has saved him.
I would defiantly recommend Caremark, my dad is with the Hemel Hempstead team.

At 21:15 on Friday night (04/12/20), the carer arrived for her evening duty. She was concerned at my wife's serious loss of balance and decided to request an ambulance. The carer was told that there were "more important cases to be dealt with", and there was no ambulance available for several hours.
The carer refused to accept this and called again. She was eventually advised the paramedics be called. After a series of tests, they found my wife had a faulty heart condition and took her straight to hospital where she stayed overnight. At around 08:30 Saturday morning, my wife was taken to another hospital from where a surgeon telephoned me to say he was going to operate immediately and give my wife a pacemaker. He agreed her carer's diligence had saved her life! The diagnosis was:- Complete heart block-emergency dual-chamber pacemaker.

Extremely happy with Caremark, they go above and beyond for my friend making sure she is well looked after. They always make sure everything is tidy before leaving and that my friend doesn't need anything else before they go.

My mother is the service user. Although I have not been present when the carers have attended my parents home, they have expressed their appreciation of the level of care my mother has received. On a couple of occasions, the carer that visited, had a concern about my mother's skin on her lower leg and
foot this was reported back to the office who then contacted her GP and an appointment was made, and Mum was seen. I feel confident that when there are concerns this is acted upon giving me confidence in the service provided. My father says the carers are always very cheerful.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.807)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.807) out of 10 for At Home Care 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.807 for At Home Care is calculated as follows: ( (111 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 135 Ratings = 4.807

  • 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 At Home Care is based on 23 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.
