Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

I have had visits from carers since early last year. They have all been kind and very pleasant. It is nice to have a variety of ladies come in to get my lunch and do various jobs. Some days they are the only people I see. They are all kind and helpful.

The carer has been friendly and has encouraged me to become involved in activities such as jigsaws and drives around the district. I would prefer visits in the morning if possible.

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 4.167 for Helping Hands Home Care (Cheltenham) is calculated as follows: ( (4 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.167

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Helping Hands Home Care (Cheltenham) is based on 2 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 = 3.5
