CareUK247 provides quality care in two areas:

a) Domiciliary care.
In the first instance, managers are trained to visit the client and discuss their specific requirements. Where the client is unable to articulate, family and external services are approached to provide the team with the information needed to tailor-make the provision client needs. Offering a personal service ensures bidding for work where CareUK247's services can be provided in a professional manner using the in-house support relevant to the client's needs. A good example of this is one of the recently recruited carers who is encouraging a lady with senile dementia to teach her how to knit and crochet.

The stimulation this has provided has enabled the client to feel useful and increased the client's communication between the two (April 2021). Regular assessment of the service is a feature of the company support together with client questionnaires and regular reviews of care plans involving professionals and family support where appropriate.

Managers are responsible for the risk assessments and subsequent policies associated with the company ethos. Further, they are required to monitor and supervise carers to ensure the maintenance of the high quality service. Training is provided either on-line or one-to-one as appropriate. (A basic package of training, together with shadowing is required before carers can begin work).

b) Residential care
Provision of agency staff to care homes throughout the Cambridgeshire area. As evidence of the quality of staff provided a number of homes have been using the service for several years. During the Covid crisis care homes have been recommending the service and the client list has increased.

We are satisfied with the service provided. All the carers who provide personal care are very caring. Easy to approach the care coordinator.
The care workers are treating my mother with care and dignity whilst providing personal care.

My sister has Down’s and suffers from dementia. The care she is receiving has been exemplary, and has allowed us to cope with the situation we now find ourselves in. The main carers have been outstanding when it comes to making my sister feel comfortable, even to the extent of learning some Makaton
signs so that they may better communicate with her. They constantly reassure her (and us) about what is happening, helping her (and us) to relax. We are always pleased to see them as they are now like a part of our family.

Main issue is leaving heavily soiled washing for me to deal with and not rinsing off the faeces and soaking in cold water. Also not wiping dirty surfaces and clearing away all dirty tissue paper etc. The bathroom is not always left in a clean state.

I don't always get the full-time that's allocated to me. Sometimes I have new carers who come to me but I'm not ever told I will be getting a new carer which is very unsettling for me as I'm a vulnerable woman who lives on my own. Some of the carers are very good but some aren't so good.

The team of carers who are currently taking care of my dad are considerate and respectful. If I have any requests on behalf of Dad, the carers always listen, and we try to come to a suitable agreement which works within the timeframe that is provided.
The office staff always answer all queries and
requests I might have on behalf of Dad.
Dad is still getting used to receiving care since being discharged from a long stay in hospital, so it is still very much a work in progress.

Overall ok. It would help me if the carers filled in their online visit log as fully as possible as generally my mother is unable to remember what care has been given. Also, some visits are quite a bit shorter than the allotted time. Although I do appreciate that my mother is not always very talkative.

Would like rota times to be carried out every single day as I have an early call from the district nurse.
Asked for a 7:30 night call but it is on the carer's rota still as being 7:15.
Carers do not stay with me as long as they should which is three-quarters of an hour.

I am very happy with the care and support I have been given by the care company. The management try their very best to provide continuity of the carers that call and care for me. The carers are very supportive and treat me with complete dignity. I requested that I have a female carer in the mornings
for personal care and this has been kept to that, only on two occasions a male has been sent due to unforeseen circumstances. The timekeeping is good but could be improved. Overall very happy.

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 3.778 for CareUK247 is calculated as follows: ( (7 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 27 Ratings = 3.778

  • 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 CareUK247 is based on 3 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 = 4

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
