Mitchell & Murdoch have been wonderful in supporting my father overall. We had 2 amazing ladies who were consistent but sadly they left. We have 2 new carers, one of which is excellent and the other is new and learning. They don't do as much as the previous ladies eg changing beds, nighttime bag or
hanging up his washing but I maybe need to ask for specific things to be done.

My father receives excellent care from the staff who visit him. The same people cover the shifts (with the exception of holidays) which gives consistency and a good relationship built on trust. The staff are very caring and encourage mobility as far as possible and conversation. They understand Dad's
needs and make sure he has everything required.
I can't praise them highly enough for the job they do.

Avoid like the plague. Happy to abandon a service user for 20% of their daily issues mental health ignoring 80% of her physical health issues which are getting worse. Social Worker agreed to increase my care, not kill it off! Refused to listen to their own staff on the sublet. Claimed paper trail even
though Case Conference 12 days ago made no mention wanting to cease and now claim longer term? Also refused to apologise for upset and depression or to reconsider. Do as we say, Not do as we do.

I am so pleased with the care my mum has been receiving from her two favourite carers since we changed providers in January.
My mum has settled down and is really happy to see her two favourites when they come in to visit her.
I am more relaxed now knowing my mum is in such good hands getting great
treatment and care. Thank you.

Mitchell and Murdoch provide excellent care for my aunt. The carers are prompt and always chatty. My aunt enjoys their visits. They understand her requirements and put any concerns on the app so I can see immediately and they communicate well with us as a family.

Since needing a carer after leaving hospital in June 2020 after having a stroke on my left side, which is now weaker, I am very happy and content with Mitchell & Murdoch Care Ltd. Carers are very capable, well trained and most helpful and kind. Mitchell & Murdoch is now my fifth care provided, and I
have no problems.

From the start, the approach has been friendly and professional. Contacting the office is always quick and knowledgeable about my mum's situation. There is a culture of kindness together with being diligent; they are all willing to help. I feel supported too! Very happy, as my mum is, and other family,
that she is being well cared for. We thank all at Mitchell & Murdoch Care.

Mitchell & Murdoch Care is excellent and treats the client with respect. The carers give the client the best of care and makes them feel they are important as they really care for the person and do not simply do their job. They provide the best of care.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.291)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.291) out of 10 for Mitchell & Murdoch Care Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.491 for Mitchell & Murdoch Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 53 Ratings = 4.491

  • 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 Mitchell & Murdoch Care Ltd is based on 8 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 = 4.8

  • 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.
