Our overall experience with the carers is excellent.
They are respectful, polite, helpful and caring. No issues whatsoever.
The fact that they come on time and at a time that suits the family is great.
The only issue I'm having this month is to arrange for extra cover for 2 evening visits next month.
Evidently, we need to be allocated a social worker which I don't understand. Hopefully, it will be sorted.
Otherwise, everything is excellent. Thank you for all your help and support.

Very good service with very good carers. They usually turn up on time or ring me if different. They generally listen to what I say but occasionally think they know better! They don't like using the crust of the sliced bread I use but I have persuaded them otherwise. If an item is running out sometimes
they do not tell me.

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 4.647 for Support Solutions (Harrogate) is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 17 Ratings = 4.647

    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 Support Solutions (Harrogate) is based on 3 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 = 4

  • 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.
