This agency is the best I have used to assist my father, bar none. The lady that looks after my dad not only takes time but is understanding of his every need, is respectful and very kind. My father adores her, as do the whole family. Care & Grace go above and beyond in their service and even spent
hours of extra time looking after my father after we lost my dear mom in December - because they were worried about him being so sad. Honestly worth their weight in gold! I live in the South West so knowing they are with my dad finally gave me the confidence to do things with my family without sitting with my phone by my side as I have had to with other agencies. They have simply become family. “Thank you” Care & Grace.

Care & Grace has been providing personal care for my father-in-law for over twelve months now. They have been very caring, hygienic and they give attention to detail and at the same time professional in the service that they have been providing. They are punctual and are very prompt in getting back
to you if you have any queries. They have been excellent in providing any emergency cover too. We hope to continue to use your excellent services. Thank you Care & Grace.

Unfortunately, this provider started well, so it's a shame to leave a negative review. They didn't promote independence as much as they could have, with my father-in-law losing some skills, as he was spoon-fed and could feed himself. The council let us down by not paying the finances as they should
have, leaving us unable to pay for the care. We managed to get the social worker to sort the finances out but we were left with no choice and they called time on the package, leaving myself and my partner having to complete the care Saturday as we couldn't get anything in place. We now have emergency care in place as this provider refused to continue until we had the right support. No care or grace about the situation.

Reply from Georgina Mann, Manager at Care & Grace

Thank you for your review. Unfortunately, because of privacy regulations we cannot discuss any specifics about your review.
However, we were committed in providing quality service and when the operational situation turned out otherwise, we gave a reasonable period notice for a replacement of service provider.
We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Thank You.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.500)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.500) out of 10 for Care & Grace 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 2 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 5.000 for Care & Grace is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5

  • 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 Care & Grace is based on 2 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 = 3.5

  • 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.
