We are both very happy with the help we get, they are very hard-working. I do not know what I would do without them.

Every care worker has been caring, kind and efficient. At every visit, they have been a companion to me whilst working, always laughing and smiling when conversing. They are all gentle when washing and cleaning me. They offer to do cleaning and washing up when required. They are a pleasure to know.
Always on time and courteous.

I had the same two female carers for nearly six months. They are both caring and know how I like things done. I know that they will come in and do what I need doing without fuss or me having to tell them what I need. I enjoy finding out about them and their lives.

The care from the caring team has been excellent. Having a regular team which my wife has got to know is very important and that has been the case for the last 2 months. The visiting times have been consistent now that a regular pattern has been established.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.775 for Altair Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (32 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 40 Ratings = 4.775

  • 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 Altair Healthcare is based on 7 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 = 4.7

  • 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.
