I would like to say thank you to the lovely carers looking after my mum.
They are kind, caring, patient and jovial.
It gives me and my family peace of mind knowing that she is in such good hands.
Thank you so much.

Overall I am very satisfied with the care my mother receives. Of course, there will always be something you might not do yourself but with the time they have to provide a meal, personal care, laundry, they do very well. There could be more effort to check meal plans, dates of fresh food, not defrosting
cook from frozen meals. They have done a good job with her complex needs.

Thank you so much for your feedback. We really appreciate it. We will remind the carers to check all instructions and dates on food.

After a fall my mum has been cared for by Bromley Healthcare Care at Home on their re-enablement programme. I have found their care team to be exceptional, and very caring not only with my mum but also offering me support and guidance. Obviously, care is their priority but their admin team and management
are always on hand and very happy to help where possible. I wish the team continued success.

The main problem is the arrival time carers arrive which can be after midday.

Reply from Rebecca Moxom, Operational Manager at Bromley Healthcare Care at Home

Overall, pleased with the care my mum gets. Sometimes, she is told she has no "wipes" or pads, and then, I find them under the clothes! Not looking! Appreciate the girls have a tough job and sometimes don't have enough time to maybe spend more time, but the girls do well in a difficult job, and overall,
we are really pleased with the care that is given to our mum!
Thank you.

The care company have been looking after my mother for over ten years. She is treated with dignity, love and friendship by most of her carers. My mother has dementia, so can be volatile, and they are good at calming her down. She is assessed regularly, and they have managed to get Mum to go to a day
centre weekly, which has improved her mental health amazingly.

Negatives: So many different carers for someone with Dementia. A few 'regulars' would be far better. Call times are often too late in the morning for meds, and messages don't always reach the carer e.g. don't just get the client up early as requested, the reason is for an appointment, and the carer
needs to know that.
Positives: Management is very friendly and usually very effective. The majority of carers are very supportive, friendly and aware of privacy and dignity. The care is far better than previous company experience. They try their best to help with requests. Usually quick to respond to feedback. The phone is answered quickly around 99% of the time.

Thank you for your feedback; we will work hard to improve on the negatives to ensure that our care improves.

I live in Australia and my parents are in the UK, so as you can imagine it can be quite hard now they are in their twilight years. My mum had a stroke last year and most recently a nasty fall where she broke her hip. Since her discharge from hospital the team from Bromley Health Care have been in every
day assisting both my parents (my dad has dementia). My mum informs me that the carers have been exemplary. I myself have had nothing but positive communication with their Field Care Supervisor. There were a couple of issues, where the carers were running late, I emailed them and received an immediate response and any issues were resolved, quickly and efficiently. Although I speak to my mum and dad every morning (night for me) the app is a great tool to use, so I can easily see what is happening on each visit and if there is anything I need to address.

Thank you for your positive feedback, we will pass this on to our dedicated team and also the field care supervisor who has been working closely with you and your family.
We are pleased that we were able to sort out the issues to ensure that they were resolved quickly.

We are very grateful for the feedback. We endeavour to give continuity with our carers, but it does mean that when they have days off you may see other carers.

Bromley Healthcare looked after my mum, who has Alzheimer’s, and ensured she could live in her home for as long as possible.
I found them highly professional, and their care was fantastic and treated Mum with great dignity. It was lovely how a few of the Bromley Healthcare team even visited Mum after
she went into a care home. This is more than a job to them and has added value to the end of my mum's life.
Thank you, Bromley Healthcare.

Reply from Rebecca Moxom, Operational Manager at Bromley Healthcare Care at Home

Thank you so much for your review. Our team of carers loved caring for your mum and we are pleased that our efforts enabled her to stay at home for as long as possible.

Mum's care is exceptional. All the carers are very friendly and know Mum's needs. They are very caring, and to my mind, work very hard. Nothing is too much trouble.
Mum is very happy with the care she receives. It's peace of mind for me as I am not local and to know someone is seeing to her every
morning.
Any problems, I am contacted and I can see the outcome of the morning call by going onto the app, which is very handy. They administer Mum's medication and all of the carers chat throughout the call. The service she gets is greatly appreciated by both Mum and me. We'll done!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.479)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.479) out of 10 for Bromley Healthcare Care at Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.479 for Bromley Healthcare Care at Home is calculated as follows: ( (59 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 94 Ratings = 4.479

  • 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 Bromley Healthcare Care at Home is based on 15 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.
