The Review Score of 9.8 (9.753) out of 10 for Home Instead (Northampton) 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.753 for Home Instead (Northampton) is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 186 Ratings = 4.753
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 Home Instead (Northampton) is based on 31 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.

Job Title: Care Professional Compliance
Joined: 2021
My name is Emma Bennett, I have 32 years of experience working as a nurse in the NHS. I have worked for Home Instead since 2018, which means I have 36 years experience of working with people across all age groups.
I now work with the Care Professional Team at Home Instead where I share the role of training and the development of our Care Professionals and key players. This includes supporting them with their inductions and then ongoing support and training. My main role is ensuring and maintaining compliance with Care Professional development and mandatory training, to both Home Instead and CQC standards.
Job Title: Client Experience Team
Joined: 2020
My name is Tina Broadbent. I started with Home Instead in February 2018 and have been in care for about 4 years prior. Upon leaving school I trained as a Chef and worked in the catering sector for just over 10 years. I went back to work in the hotel catering trade for 9-years at the Walnut Tree Inn. During my time there I got chatting with a local customer who was looking for care for his Daughter with complex needs. I loved my time being her PA.
This gave me a completely new angle on care in the community from young adults to our ageing society that want to remain at home. I came to Home Instead after working for another care company and I haven’t looked back. I started as a Care Professional out in the community and had my own lovely clients. I quickly got recognised in the office for other useful qualities, and I’m now full-time in the office.
I’m always thankful to Home Instead for believing in me and seeing my potential.
Outside of work, I have two daughters and my Husband. I enjoy cooking for friends and family. I also enjoy the Gym, walking with the family and the many Dogs we have between us all.
Job Title: Client Experience Team
Hi, my name is Hannah Rootes. I have worked for Home Instead Northampton since August 2020 and have recently joined the Client Experience Team. A big part of my role is that I go and meet new clients and create their Care Plans so that we and our Care Professionals can provide the best level of care possible. When I do this my focus is always, on what our clients want to achieve and what is important to them- our clients are at the centre of everything I do. I have lived in Northampton all my life and have enjoyed growing up here. In my life, I have seen all aspects of care, where before working for Home Instead I cared for the family. Due to this, I use all of my experience as a family member of a loved one needing care and as a Care Professional to ensure all of our Clients receive the best care we can provide.
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my daughter. I also love to read good books and go for a scenic walk where I can take some photographs with my DSLR camera.
Job Title: Recruitment Manager
I have been in healthcare for 18 years and have loved every minute of it. I have worked with children, young adults, and the elderly, all within Care Homes and Domiciliary settings.
I started work in Domiciliary care as a Carer, upon returning from maternity leave I was promoted to a Senior. I later progressed to being a Trainer, Scheduler, Deputy Manager and now Recruitment Manager with Home Instead.
I have only been at Home instead for just over a year and everyone is very welcoming, caring and passionate about what they do.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, going camping, being outdoors and plenty of movie nights.
Job Title: Client Experience Team
My name is Charlee Kaye. I have worked in the Care Sector for 8 years, where I have worked for Home Instead for most of this time. I am a part of the Client Experience team at Home Instead Northampton, where I ensure our client’s experience with Home Instead is what they want. This may be from completing reviews with our clients, attending client visits and supporting Clients and Care Professionals with their needs on a day-to-day basis.
I have always lived in Northampton, where I have raised my family. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family. I enjoy going on holidays, attending social events, and living life to the full. Before joining Home Instead, I trained to become a hairdresser and spent 10 years in a salon. This has given me lots of experience in communicating with clients and understanding their needs.
