As per my memory, I have been getting service from Silver Stars for the last 3 years. I am very happy with the management and the service that I am getting from them. The carers who are attending for me are brilliant. They do their best for me always. I highly recommend Silverstars to anyone who is
seeking care support.

Silver Stars it can be said are excellent at communication phone. They are pleasant, helpful and unruffled.
If changes to arrangements are in the pipeline I can usually contact a member of staff during the late afternoon. While ready to react to events carers can point to a very acceptable record
for punctuality and they have a sense of humour

My father receives excellent care from this team of carers. They arrive when they say they will and help him get up, washed/showered and dressed. He thinks very highly of them all. The Rota is sent out every evening so I can tell him in advance what time they are arriving the following morning. Very
reassuring for the family too. No complaints.

I find Silverstars Care to be a really outstanding care provider. The overall care is exceptional. Each carer is very attentive and thoughtful of the needs of my wife. They all help her with compassion and in a friendly manner, which helps her a great deal. The atmosphere they create is a real help
to me and I am very grateful for it.
Also, I must say that not only are the staff friendly and cheerful, but they have shown great professionalism and have given me good advice about the care needs of a person with Alzheimer's.
All staff arrive on time, as per the comprehensive rota that the office sends out to me - which again is a real help for me to know when staff are arriving.
Overall, I am so pleased to have Silverstars helping my wife and I through this journey - I would highly recommend them.

Extremely understanding and always looking to meet the client's wishes - and even
demands.
Very predictable and reliable. They have gone out of their way to increase calling frequency from 2x to 3x a day.
A good history and record of each visit is made and on the infrequent times I have called I
have always had the feeling that they were fully on top of events on the day with my mother.

Every carer has been excellent, on time, very cheerful attitude and treats my partner with compassion and care and is always polite. I personally wouldn't know how I would cope without them, as before getting my partner showered and dressed was so hard and made my back ache etc. So thank you very much
for your help.

I think overall the care has been amazing.
There have been a couple of times that I have been fortunate to be there, things would be a bit different.
Very friendly, and you can tell the people that care.
Some spend the time chatting with mum, 1 or 2 do what they have to and go.
Overall my mum is
happy.

Carers excellent and one visit a day at 9.00 is very acceptable. Hopefully this will continue as it has for the last year. My wife has a wash every morning which is essential as she is bed-bound and her skin needs to be checked regularly, which is important and is being done regularly.

Reply from Toni Wiesner, Marketing at Silverstars Care

Thank you for your kind words. We're glad to hear that the care provided has been excellent and that the daily 9:00 am visits are working well for you and your wife.

We are committed to maintaining this high level of care. If you ever need anything more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Having had a holiday during May, we were pleased with the extra care we had asked to be done. Everyone was great, the care and times were spot on. My Mum-in-law had no problems while we were away and so we were able to enjoy our holiday.

Overview of Review Score

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.897 for Silverstars Care is calculated as follows: ( (61 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 68 Ratings = 4.897

  • 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 Silverstars Care is based on 12 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.
