Very pleased overall with the quality of care my husband receives. Carers are kind and compassionate and generally knowledgeable especially as my husbands needs are very complex. They are punctual, in uniform with identity badges. He enjoys their company and is happy.

My brother has been a client for nearly 4 years and we are very happy with the excellent care they provide. He enjoys the company of the carers and I have peace of mind knowing he is being well cared for. Problems pop up with my brother from time to time and I feel safe in the knowledge that one phone
call to the carer and it's sorted. Nothing is too much trouble, they truly are a godsend.

My brother is on end-of-life heart failure and they came to the hospital to arrange when they're coming out. The communication is great and the cares are so lovely. I'd highly recommend this company. They care not just about my brother, they care about me and even if I don't need help sometimes just
having a chat helps.

Reply from luke roe, Marketing Executive at Homelium Dorset

Thank you for your kind words and for trusting Homelium with your brother's care. It's our privilege to provide the support he needs. We'll continue to do everything we can to ensure his comfort and well-being. We are glad to hear our carers care for you as well, this is something we value highly.

I have been with this care company since January and this is my first experience of care in the home and the care has been consistently of a very high standard, adapting to my changing needs over this period of time. All carers have taken responsibility for the various required health related equipment
that is used on a daily basis. In the last few weeks I have been suffering from a cold which has required extensive full use of the cough assist which most carers have happily adapted to. All carers are friendly and accommodating and have fitted into our daily family routines with the minimum amount of intrusion.

I do not have many dealings with the provider's office so generally speak to senior carers of needs. Most concerns are the availability of carers at times, of which I believe can affect care providers in general these days. Unfortunately, under today's climate, not all carers are suitable to caring
and do not last long.

Reply from Alison French, Director at Homelium Dorset

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 6 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 4.727 for Homelium Dorset is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 33 Ratings = 4.727

  • 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 Homelium Dorset is based on 6 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 = 4.6

  • 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.

Alison French

Job Title: Operations Director

My journey into the world of care started with late-night shifts for my mother-in-law’s care home, all while my husband was on duty in Bosnia. It was a unique introduction that sparked my passion for personalized care!


What I love most about my role is the opportunity to tailor care for each client and connect them with the perfect team of carers. One memorable accomplishment that stands out is making sure a desperate family could reunite with their dad for Christmas. On Christmas Eve, I went above and beyond, conducting a care assessment in the hospital and checking out the home environment, ensuring a heartwarming Christmas Eve reunion. The smiles on their faces made it all worthwhile.


A little bit about me; I may not have a quirky skill, but I sure can sing! I was an alto in the Military Wives Choir. Singing is my stress-buster and my way of bringing joy to others! My go-to karaoke song would be “Fairytale of New York”- my husband popped the question on a horse-drawn carriage in Central Park- a real-life fairytale in the city that never sleeps!
