In terms of care, my father is receiving exemplary care. He is treated more as the carer's relative than as a patient. She has quickly established his trust and he is experiencing a better quality of life than before hospital with daily walks, exercises, lots of music and talking.
I cannot fault the
care he is receiving.
Some points for improvement. 1. there has been some inconsistency between management regarding equipment needs which has introduced an unnecessary cost. 2. it has been less handover and relax and involved a lot more input than expected.

Thanks for taking over and looking after my mother and father in their own home.
Your team are doing this and my parents are where they want to be.
They are being treated with kindness and dignity.
They certainly enjoy the variable diet.
My wife and I can now relax and go out and go on holiday knowing
my parents are in safe hands.

Although my father only received live-in care for a very short time before he passed away the care and support for my father and myself and brother was excellent.
It was a great comfort to us that his last few weeks at home after leaving hospital was spent with peace and dignity.

Mumby's Homecare Support always provide the highest level of care. They are very responsive to Mum's changing needs and she has a great relationship with her carer for whom nothing is too much trouble. I am kept fully informed of any issues or concerns this carer has and they can be rapidly resolved.

We received an excellent service from the two carers we had with Mumby’s. They greatly helped me and my son in looking after my husband in his final months. We could not have coped without their assistance.

Very good, skilled carers in my two experiences. Left hip replacement (May/June); right hip replacement (August/September). Flexible in approach. Weakness was in some of the set-up and administration, though in counter sorted out car arrangements when my insurer failed to provide the cover needed.

Mumbys have always provided a very high standard of care for my father. The carers have become part of our family always reliable going above and beyond their job role. I would be lost without their support.

Mumby's are a reliable family agency, which we have used for over six months. We are satisfied with the quality of the carers, and they handle my wife's situation (and consequently mine) well. Possibly the only comment I have is that some of the carers' spoken English is difficult to understand, and
vice versa. My wife likes some carers better than others, but that is the nature of her illness.

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 4.714 for Mumby's Live-in Care is calculated as follows: ( (75 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 98 Ratings = 4.714

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Mumby's Live-in Care is based on 17 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.
