The care my husband receives is excellent. Being a nurse lead group they have skin integrity at the top of their list, they listen to my husband’s needs and care for him accordingly. There is no rushing and if they go over the time they still make sure that everything is right. It has helped me tremendously
over the past six years as they are here for me as well and I am safe in the knowledge that my husband is being looked after well, they are part of our family. I would highly recommend the company to anyone needing support for help around the house, company, and of course, personal care of which I can say has been much better than companies we used before having Sarah’s Carers.

Thank you very much for your comments and where has that six years gone. It has been a pleasure to help both of you through many life events and you have shared in some of our challenges when your support has been much appreciated. I know we all feel a strong bond with both of you. Best wishes, Sarah.

I was personally recommended Sarah's Carers by a neighbour of my father as care was required and fairly quickly as my father is registered blind and has dementia. From the first phone call into the office to the manager who then visited and set-up the care package, to the carrying out of the care all
has gone smoothly. Now after 12 months I can say that the team have provided a very good and caring service. They do seem a very caring team, all are friendly and knowledgeable. They have also offered sensible advice. I have never had to deal with a person with the conditions that my father has but the team has and it comes through that they know what they are doing time and time again. Thank you. The team use an app that is updated after every visit and I can read how my father is and it is also used for messages for myself and it works both ways, I can also add messages myself which has proved very useful. I have no hesitation in recommending Sarah's Carers.

Thank you for your feedback, Martyn, and I have passed your comments on to the care team. I am pleased that you find the Family App beneficial, it is proving very useful for families to not only read what the care team have written but also, as you mention for sending us messages. Kind Regards.

Sarah's Carers have provided personal care for my 99-year-old mother for more than three years, enabling her to continue to live independently in her own home. Without exception, every carer provides a professional, reliable and cheerful service. As a family, we appreciate the peace of mind we have
knowing Sarah's Carers will visit every morning.

Reply from Sarah Seaman, Registered Manager at Sarah's Carers

Dear Sue, thank you on behalf of the team for your kind comments. They will all be pleased to know that their visits help give the whole family peace of mind. Your Mother's ability to retain her independence is very important to them. Kind regards, Sarah.

I have been receiving care from Sarah’s Carers for a number of years and during this time I’ve had no reason to complain about the care that I receive. Every carer performed their duties in a very professional manner, always maintaining very high standards. They are reliable, trustworthy and considerate
of individual's needs which gives me a great deal of reassurance. During the COVID pandemic, they have adhered to the guidelines exactly, using PPE at all times, making sure that the clients are protected and of course, themselves.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Sarah’s Carers, each and every one of the carers I meet are kind, understanding, nothing is too much trouble. A thoroughly excellent organisation.

Reply from Sarah Seaman, Registered Manager at Sarah's Carers

Thank you, Richard, for your feedback. It has always been a pleasure to help you and we have shared many a laugh (I am smiling right now remembering one particular story) and I still value the constructive comments and support you gave in the early days of Sarah's Carers. I remember well the real concern you had about receiving care to start with so it's good to know the team have helped overcome that and made a difference. I was also grateful for the interest you took when you knew life was a struggle for me on a personal basis. Not the average client/business relationship but based on mutual respect. You still appear on most of our marketing material so that's another thanks from us. Best wishes, Sarah.

My father has been using the services of Sarah’s Carers for several years. It enables him to stay independent in his own home.
The carers are always happy and willing to do anything he needs help with. He looks forward to their daily visits.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.831 for Sarah's Carers is calculated as follows: ( (68 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 77 Ratings = 4.831

  • 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 Sarah's Carers is based on 13 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.
