With only one exception, all the people working for Your Care Your Home are kind, efficient, caring and helpful. I complained with details about the one lady who seemed totally different to the others. I think she was dismissed. It is difficult compare value for money as we haven't used another agency.

I moved across to this company last year. The manager has been, and still is, so supportive going over and above my expectations of care provider management. The staff are a big part of my mum and dad’s well-being in the form of shopping and company as they are both housebound now. Local business looking
after local people.

Reply from Kayleigh Thorne, Director at Your Care Your Home

Thank you for the lovely comments. It is a pure pleasure to support your parents, we all enjoy their stories and being able to help improve their quality of life together in their own home.

Just had a very touching and meaningful experience with two of my mum's carers from Your Care Your Home. They had come round unannounced to sing a couple of hymns with her. Singing hymns is one of the few things my mum can still do, so it was lovely that they decided to do this with her.

Reply from Kayleigh Thorne, Director at Your Care Your Home

Thank you so much for the lovely review. We will always strive to make a difference that is unique to the individual, and we are pleased that your Mum enjoyed the Hymn.

Excellent care company - all the staff are friendly, professional and caring towards my father who has dementia. They treat him with respect and kindness. Nothing seems to be too much trouble. The management are extremely efficient and approachable at all times. The company has been a great find and
I thank them hugely for their professionalism.

An amazing service from all the staff and the manager. My mother feels safe in their care and really appreciates their thoughtfulness and kindness. They go the extra mile to be helpful; even buying a kettle for Mum when hers broke. The manager and carers always contact me straight away with any concerns
about Mum and we both trust all the staff completely. Without their help, Mum would no longer be living independently at the age of 100 years. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to any of my family or friends.

Reply from Kayleigh Thorne, Director at Your Care Your Home

Thank you for such a kind review. Your mum is just absolutely phenomenal, and we all enjoy visiting her. Independence is what we promote and independent she is, we all look forward to celebrating the big 101!

Your Care Your Home are absolutely wonderful in taking good care of my uncle, friendly, warm, efficient and reliable at all times. Without exception they are respectful, keeping me fully aware of any concerns without undermining his confidence. He looks forward to each visit and takes a keen interest
in each and every one, which is very important for his mental well-being and when the weather is favourable, encouraged to take exercise. I highly recommend them and would not consider another company for a loved one.

Reply from Kayleigh Thorne, Director at Your Care Your Home

Thank you for a lovely review, and for allowing us to take good care of your uncle. I speak on behalf of all the team, it is a privilege to be part of his support.

“Your Care Your Home” is a company of which I have recent experience as a client, that has provided a great deal of dignified care. Knowing that the staff put the needs of their clients at the forefront of their attention helps develop confidence in their work. The staff are always punctual, polite,
capable and, above all, thoroughly understanding and sympathetic to their clients’ needs; they possess, and exercise, the technical and commercial skills that achieve the best results possible.

Home care service is very friendly and reliable. My mum really enjoys her coffee morning trips with her helper. Everything was organised very easily by the manager. My mum has dementia so knowing someone else can take her out is greatly appreciated. Highly recommend their service at a time when help
is very much 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 Average Rating of 4.828 for Your Care Your Home is calculated as follows: ( (75 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 87 Ratings = 4.828

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Your Care Your Home is based on 14 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.
