Spectrum Homecare staff have made a huge difference to my disabled (adult) son’s life. The care and respect shown towards him and the family mean that I feel confident when he goes out and about. I don’t need to worry about a thing, it’s all taken care of. My son loves them!

At the beginning of 2023, I needed to find help for my elderly parents. Since using Spectrum, they have been amazing, especially as I do not live locally. They have been accommodating in adding in more times and in an emergency finding someone to stay overnight. All the staff are hardworking and caring.
Thank you for giving me the piece of mind I need and the help my parents need too.

My mum was quite apprehensive at the thought of having carers in to help her at first. Now she actually looks forward to their visits. All of the staff at Spectrum are so friendly, thoughtful and so caring towards my mum with the care they offer, nothing is ever too much trouble. As a family we feel
so grateful that we get support from Spectrum as it gives us the confidence and knowledge that mum is 100% looked after and if there is ever an issue they contact us straight away and are always happy and extremely helpful when we call them with any queries.

Spectrum Homecare is personally managed by the founders to a high standard and provides a valuable service to the Derby area. Carers provide an efficient service in a supportive style. They are responsive to supporting needs that vary from the normal weekly plan, such as medical appointments. They are
also flexible to the different needs and expectations of service users. A small criticism, for balance as much as anything, is that it can sometimes take a couple of chases to get the right manager to respond to a query.

Spectrum provided care to Mum for just over twelve months. Staff were pleasant, respectful, diligent and observant. The management team are a highlight of the service, they worked hard to make sure Mum's needs were being met, re-evaluating her care as required and communicating effectively to carers.
They were a wonderful resource for me, signposting me to other services, and suggesting things that could help Mum. They worked hard to make sure Mum had a consistent team of carers in a tricky location. I would not hesitate to recommend it.

The owners are friendly, trusting and do provide the best care for my mum. They always query issues or text me or ring me if Mum needs anything ordering or collecting. When I go on holiday, I up the care for Mum without a problem as long as I tell them in advance. They help Mum in so many ways so she
can stay in her own home. I do not know where I would be without them.

I really cannot rate the care that my daughter receives from everyone at Spectrum. Nothing is too much trouble, and the staff go above and beyond. Since this time, we have been away on holiday quite a few times, the last one being a few days away in November 23, and we have had the reassurance every
time that our daughter - who has a chronic illness - was being well looked after. The manager and your team - you are stars and greatly appreciated. Our daughter even likes us to go away so she can see the team!

This is so nice to hear. It's great that you can get away. The team looks forward to visiting too.

I am a young adult with hidden and long-term disabilities. Happy with receiving help from Spectrum. All the management are very friendly, genuine and caring. The management goes the extra mile for you and is patient with you, too. The carers are very friendly, as well.

I rang up asking about overnight care due to my mum being very poorly. After speaking with the manager on the phone - she was absolutely brilliant, and the care and attention she gave to my mother were brilliant. Would definitely recommend.

My mum passed away suddenly so we needed to sort out care for my dad urgently as he has dementia. The ladies at Spectrum were amazing. They made suggestions about visits and a routine for Dad, which wasn’t about making money but what was best for Dad. They go above and beyond, keep us updated, review
care plans, bring Dad treats, take him out and coaxing him to do what is needed whilst always being respectful and kind. It’s only a small team, the staff are consistent so, Dad has been able to build a rapport with them, and so have we. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and frequently do to anyone I can. The role they have is invaluable to us, and they really supported us while we dealt with Mum’s death. If you’re looking for carers who treat your loved ones as if they were part of their own family, are experienced and competent and speak to you like human beings, this is the company for your care needs (- and no, I’m not related to any of them, and they didn’t pay me!)

And what fun we’ve had. We’ve all loved every bit of looking after your Dad.

After a 4-month stay in the hospital, my father was discharged home. He is still very weak and unsteady on his feet, so our family decided to find carers to help him wash and dress in the morning and get Dad into bed at night. I spoke to Spectrum, and straight away, loved their happy, friendly and helpful
demeanour. After a meeting with them, Dad decided to try them out. He is absolutely thrilled to bits with the service that he is receiving. The girls who visit him are always on time and always have a happy smile on their faces; they treat Dad with dignity and compassion. Nothing is too much trouble for them. If he wants anything done, he only has to ask. The girls' attention to detail is fantastic; they are trustworthy and thorough and are becoming good friends.

Thank you! It's a pleasure to be involved; the ladies love coming to visit your father.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.875 for Spectrum Homecare Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (63 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.875

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Spectrum Homecare Ltd is based on 12 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.
