I would love recommend Athlone Care as they have friendly staff who are always smiling and I look forward to seeing them everyday, they also can see and do things without asking them. They treat me with respect always. All the ladies that comes to me are wonderful they put their heart and soul into
their work, they are always on time and they communicate if they are running late. Please kindly thank three members of staff in particular they are the THREE AMEGOES (All for one and one for all) . On the other hand the office has improved a lot as I had problems with them at begin, they now know what I want and I'm happy. Please keep the usual ladies coming as I will be lost without them.

Nearly two weeks in to receiving her care from the Athlone Care Team they already feel like an extension to our family.
They have demonstrated nothing but professionalism in their care of Mum.
They are hardworking, kind, caring, respectful and attentive to even the smallest aspects of Mums individual
needs as well as patient, understanding, skilled and knowledgeable in what they do whilst maintaining high standards of hygiene and care.
Very importantly is the continuity of care provided by the same carers (particularly one absolutely lovely lady which has made a great difference to Mum who always asks them how can they always be happy and laughing!
Even Mums dog likes them!
Thank you to the management of Athlone Care Agency for providing Mums current care.
I hope you realise what a great asset your "girls" are to you and that you value and reward them as they deserve.
Please will you continue with Mums care?.

The carers that looked after my husband were excellent. We had 4 visits per day 7 days a week and I cannot fault them. Nothing was too much trouble and they were courteous and friendly always they made my husband laugh and he always brought a smile to their faces. So thank you for looking after him
and I will always be grateful to you all for the professionalism shown.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 3 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 4.889 for Athlone Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (17 Excellents x 5) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 18 Ratings = 4.889

  • 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 Athlone Care Ltd is based on 3 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 = 4

  • 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.
