Heart and Hands Homecare has provided fantastic care for our mother for over a year. All the carers are professional, caring and conscientious and consistently go above and beyond in their service to her and to us. It has meant that our mother has been able to stay in her own home while living with
Alzheimer's. We would be completely lost without them.

Heart and Hands are fully deserving of their 5-star reviews! They provided care for my wife following a major op. They provided the same carer every day which gave my wife confidence. Their charges were much lower than other local care providers most of whom seemed only interested in providing long-term
care!

Wife has vascular dementia. Unable to make a review. Doing this for her.
She's an advanced case. Heart and Hands visit 3 times a day, 7 days a week. A dreadful, heart-breaking thing to be happening.
Well, not if Heart and Hands are involved!
Wife's needs are comprehensive; a 2-man job. So I'm an
official helper. Had to take a demotion from main carer in March 2023.
The care delivered at the bedside is thorough, professional, competent, effective; comes with happiness, fun, upbeatness and, yes, love!
Wife's demeanour, personality, alertness, awareness sustained; otherwise she'd be failing faster.
On a wider front, support (matters medicals, practical, advisory, you name it!) is experience, useful and gratefully received.
I'm lucky personally to be sane, healthy and a pretty cool guy! At 79. Heart and Hands keep me that way.
So I'm better at looking after/looking out for my wife.
I don't give full marks for anything because nothing is perfect.
Yet I cannot give less than full marks to this crowd (small crowd!).

My wife has rapidly progressing MND. Almost every week, her needs changed and there was new equipment to be used. The carers were always cheerful, helpful and competent. Nothing was too much trouble and they readily adapted to our changing needs.

I have had very good care over the past two years. After I had a replacement hip operation I had carers in 3 times a day instead of the usual once a day and I was well looked after. As well as the usual personal care they gave me they also did my meals and my washing and putting the washing away when
it was dry.

Thank you to the manager and the team of angels that currently provide care for my 84 year old uncle after his hip replacement last year. Staff showed care and understanding from our first meeting and this has continued
throughout her team. We are very fortunate to have found a caring group and nothing
is too much trouble.
I would highly recommend Heart and Hands Homecare to anyone who is looking for home care without hesitation.

Both my mother and I have greatly appreciated the weekly support and care provided to mum by Heart and Hands Homecare.
It had become obvious that mum needed more professional and more regular support and companionship than either I or mum’s friends could provide. The weekly 2 hour visit we instigated
from Heart and Hands has become a genuine highlight of mum’s week. Whether it’s taking her shopping, helping around the house or just having a chat and a laugh, it’s so good for mum!
The staff at Heart and Hands really “get” mum, and are in equal parts friendly yet professional. I definitely recommend them to others needing a range of care and support.

We have been using the services of Heart and Hands Homecare for some two years. It is a small, well managed, reliable, friendly and competent carer.
In my experience it is the very antithesis to the more large and remote caring organisations.

Thank you to Heart and Hands Homecare for their extra special care towards my Aunt. Nothing was ever too much trouble with attention to detail in all areas of her care. She always looked forward to their visits and friendly faces. A very well-organised team led by an experienced manager.
Thank you.

I cannot thank the manager and her team enough for the care that they are providing for my Mum. The difference in my Mum since they have been on board is amazing. The manager is just amazing and I cannot believe how lucky we are to have found her and her team. Thank you so much for everything that you
do. We love you.

My wife has been receiving support for the last 10 months from what I may say is a first class team. Which is lead and controlled by the manager who I have found to very helpful in all matters from changing dates and times to the supervision of her staff. My wife is at ease during visit which in turn
allow me to relax as such. Nothing seem to be to much trouble from her and hers staff. I would like to thank you and your staff for your support which I'm sure will continue in the future. Thanks.

To quote Tina Turner , "Simply the Best"! I am unable to say anything negative about Heart and Hands Home Care, they provide an outstanding service. You are able to contact them at any time of the day or night, they are run with precision and also very flexible with timings. Nothing is too much trouble
for them and they are experts at what they do. We were amazingly lucky in finding them.

The team have been caring for my mother now for around 4 years. Due to it being the same carers over this time Mum has formed a strong bond with them. We have complete confidence in them looking after her and providing a level of care above expectations.

The manager and her team have cared for my very frail parents since 2019. I cannot speak more highly of her agency, the staff are well-trained and always kind and cheerful, the house is left clean and tidy. The manager is prepared to go that extra mile if necessary and communication is excellent. The
standard of care is exceptional and I am certain that my parents couldn’t be in more capable hands.

Heart and Hands Homecare supported my 96-year-old mother for the last 3 months of her life when her health had deteriorated and my brother and I were struggling to provide the level of care she needed. From our first contact, we found the manager to be very approachable, helpful, flexible and "hands-on".
Mum was treated with kindness and respect by her carers at all times. The continuity of care was particularly helpful to her with her dementia and we were very happy with the 2 regular carers who visited. The daily recording in the logbooks was also very helpful to us in knowing what had happened earlier in the day. Extra visits when requested were always willingly provided - usually by the manager herself.
We are very thankful for the high standard of care provided to our mother in the last months of her life and grateful that this enabled her to remain living at home as she wished. I would 100% recommend this agency.

Hearts and Hands Homecare have supported my dad to remain at home for the past year. They have been unfailingly caring and cheerful, both supporting dad and advising us how to move forward with his care. They have organised medication and liaised with other services. The manager and her team are trustworthy
and always at the end of the phone if you have any concerns. I really don't know how we would have got through the past year without them.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.983 for Heart and Hands Homecare is calculated as follows: ( (59 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 60 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 Heart and Hands 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.
