The UK’s leading reviews site for home care, homecare.co.uk, has announced this year’s Top 20 home care providers.
Every year homecare.co.uk sifts through thousands of reviews of home care providers looking at elements such as their overall standard, staff and quality of management as well as whether they are value for money and the quality of care and support.
Home care agencies are given a score for this and the highest ranking home care providers win an award. There are individual awards for 12 regions in the UK as well as awards for the top ranking groups.
Over a million disabled and older people in the UK receive support and care at home and get assistance with washing and dressing, taking medication and preparing drinks and meals.
In England, around a quarter of people pay for their own home care while the rest are paid for by their local authority. Personal care is free in Scotland and in Wales home care costs are capped at £100.
There are nearly 13,000 home care providers in Britain offering this vital service which is why selecting the right home care for someone’s needs can be very time consuming. This is why the leading home care reviews site, homecare.co.uk, runs the Top 20 home care awards, which helps people find a care provider they can trust which is right for their budget and their needs.
‘Our Top 20 awards are a vital source of information’
Amanda Hopkins, reviews manager of homecare.co.uk, said: ““Good quality home care is so important as it means people can get the help and support they need so they can continue to live independently in their own homes.
“People are living longer with multiple health conditions and so home care providers which offer care tailored to people living in their own homes have become integral to health and social care in Britain.
“Our Top 20 awards are a vital source of information for people looking for good quality home care and provide a crucial insight into the standard of care given by providers.”
Awards are based on thousands of home care reviews
The homecare.co.uk Top 20 Home Care Awards 2024 are based on over 28,600 reviews by people who receive the home care as well as their family and friends.
