I found Candela Healthcare very trustworthy after all they are looking after your loved ones. They are on time, pleasant in their manner, always ask 'is there anything else they can do before they leave?'. I would recommend them to my family and friends, I can't fault them. They are caring, pleasant
and punctual. Highly recommend.

My Mother received excellent care in her last 2 weeks of life. The carers were excellent in caring for my Mother. They were very caring and made her comfortable. They were also very supportive of my Father at such a difficult time.

Candela is an amazing health service that I've ever experienced. They are always kind, polite and helpful. Candela has given me a life again. If it wasn't for the care from Candela I wouldn't be able to live in the community. The help they give with my medication lets me live a life out of the hospital
and the activities help me lead a happy, fulfilled life. Taking my shopping helps with my anxiety as I don't like crowds. The care is outstanding, they are always flexible and on hand when needed.

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 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 Candela Healthcare is based on 5 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4.5

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
