Outstanding service from the manager and the team at Home Instead. We didn't know where to start when Mum needed more help to stay in her own home. The manager came out to meet us to discuss our requirements and then made it happen! We cannot praise them enough and highly recommend this company, who
go above and beyond.

We started with Home Instead in June of this year and the whole process has been great. All protocols were fully explained, staff were introduced and both mum and I felt comfortable with all the carers coming in to her home. Staff have become friends and we really appreciate the communication and transparency
in everything that is done. Many thanks.

My mum really appreciates her visits from Home Instead and I have peace of mind that someone who we can trust is visiting, helping her to clean the house and looking out for her.
Mum has visits once a fortnight with a view to building this up should we need it. It is good to know that Home Instead
is flexible too as we have occasionally had to change the day/time of visits.

Thank you for the review. It's great to know your mum is happy with the visits.

My aunt is being very well cared for each day and she has shown a lot of improvement since the visits began. I can totally recommend this company and nothing is too much trouble for them. The carers are lovely people and my aunt has grown really fond of them all.

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 5.000 for Home Instead (Castleford and Selby) is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 5

  • 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 Home Instead (Castleford and Selby) is based on 4 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 4.25

  • 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.
