Thank you for taking the time to leave a lovely review of our services. Making a decision to have support for a loved one is difficult and then finding a provider who offers high quality, consistent care can also be challenging. We are delighted that you found that level of care and consistency with Visiting Angels and it is what we pride ourselves on. Thank you again.

The Review Score of 10 (9.982) out of 10 for Visiting Angels Burton and Derby is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.982 for Visiting Angels Burton and Derby is calculated as follows: ( (165 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.982
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 Visiting Angels Burton and Derby is based on 28 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: Registered Care Manager
Joined: 2022
Hi, I'm Ashleigh! I started my career in care over 11 years ago and have never looked back. I have experienced highs and lows in this sector but this has made me the person I am today. I always strive to go above and beyond and I'm not afraid to admit I am a bit of a perfectionist.
I want to empower our angels to be the best they can be and deliver excellent quality care and support. I use my knowledge, experience and abilities to train and maintain staff by promoting carer centricity along with exceptional support and maintaining high standards.
My ongoing aim is to support our angels to grow their wings brighter and stronger whilst supporting them to deliver all-around person-centred care. Care is not just a job, it's a journey! A journey we want to help our angels grow in and feel satisfaction for the work and support they give to our amazing clients.
Job Title: Care Team Leader
Joined: 2020
I began working in the care sector at the age of 17, while studying Child Care at College, I started working part-time in a Nursing Home close to where I live. I stayed for a few years alongside my studies, and when I qualified, I started working in a children's nursery and eventually became Room Leader for the baby unit.
As years passed, I decided to try Domiciliary Care and got a job within a company where I slowly made my way up to the Care Co-ordinator role. I spent many happy years there liaising with social workers and families of the clients we delivered care to.
During my career I have worked in several establishments gaining experience along the way, I have been a private nanny for a family who looked after me well and I accompanied them on their family holidays and would also do some extra babysitting for them a few evenings a week, again I spent many happy years with them up to the point the children were starting school. I have also supported young people with complex needs, but after having my own children, I felt I couldn’t carry out my role to support children with complex needs on a part-time basis and needed something more flexible to work around my children, which led me to Visiting Angels.
I started my VA journey as a Caregiver during the month of November 2020 the year Visiting Angels opened their doors, and now have worked my way up to being a Care Team Leader. I am currently learning my new role and I hope to gain more experience along the way. I enjoy aiding people and maintaining their independence in their own homes all whilst delivering the best possible care.
