I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your staff for the care and support given to my mum. Although she was only in your care for a short while, the attention she received was exceptional and I can not praise the carers enough. I would highly recommend your company to others in similar
circumstances. Once again thank you one and all.

Reply from Sebia Majekodunmi, Deputy Manager at Open Doors Healthcare Services

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I remain very impressed with Open Door Healthcare Service standards of care practice and management, It is clear that the carers are well trained. We have seen about 10 over the past few months but they all follow the same routine with my wife asking 'how was your night?' jollying her along to make
her way to the bathroom to wash and dress, spotting if any of her clothes are soiled or need changing, bringing her a cup of tea, the big benefit of this approach is consistency. It is clear that my wife can't see the same carer every day but she knows what to expect whoever is providing her care on any given day. My wife enjoys their company and is always more lively after the carers visit. The agency is also very efficiently managed with prompt invoicing and phone calls if a carer is going to be late arriving.

Reply from Sophia Ziso, Registered Manager at Open Doors Healthcare Services

Thank you for your heartfelt and detailed review. We're delighted to hear that our carers have made a positive impact on your wife's daily life, providing consistency, compassion and companionship. We appreciate your recognition of our efficient management and communication. Please be assured that we will continue to maintain our high standards of care and service, ensuring that your wife receives the same level of excellence she has come to expect from us.

Ignore the Care Commission Rating. The manager and her team looked after my Dad at home in the last 4 weeks of his life. They always arrived on time, treated my Dad with dignity and respect, and helped reassure my Mum, who had been looking after my Dad for so many months previously. Sophie would regularly
phone my Mum and also pop in to make sure everything was satisfactory. My Dad got his wish which was to die in his own bed at home holding my mum's hand.
Just wish we had used them earlier.

I am very pleased with the carriers who look after my wife. We have 3 visits a day and the care is always friendly and polite and provide a very good service and keep me informed if there are any problems. I would certainly recommend Open Doors Healthcare Services to anyone looking for an excellent
home care service.

I cannot fault this agency. My father was cared for from January 2023 until he died in June 2024. He was looked after with care and kindness at the beginning when he was really ill and this continued as he improved. He was treated respectfully all the time. We, as a family, were treated with kindness
and respect.

All the staff were amazing. My father trusted them to care for him in a respectful way. There were day and night nurses who noted their every care movement and sent them to my brother to review daily. Without their services we would have not coped at all. I cannot recommend them highly enough not only
for their care but the respectful and dignified way they treated our father in his own home when he was discharged from hospital and needed care at the age of 94.

Thank you very much for your kind words. It was such a joy to care for your father. It is good to know that you were happy with our services. Thank you for all your support which made our job such a joy.

Sadly my husband only lived for 4 days after he was discharged from hospital. We will always be grateful to the hospital team for introducing us to and arranging for the Open Doors team to help. I cannot praise them enough, treating my husband with dignity and respect. Always arriving on time with huge
smiles. Management very much in evidence, introducing carers and checking all was well. The carers were very friendly to me and my sons too. Highly recommend. Thank you all.

Your client has complex needs which are met with cheerfulness, patience and punctuality. They engage with your client and work as a team. It is good to have visits from management from time to time. Value for money - do not know yet but probably good or excellent.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.852)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.852) out of 10 for Open Doors Healthcare Services is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 39 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 4.852 for Open Doors Healthcare Services is calculated as follows: ( (192 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 223 Ratings = 4.852

  • 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 Open Doors Healthcare Services is based on 39 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.
