Review from P T (Daughter-in-law of Client) published on 2 September 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Nightingales over nearly 3 years enabled my mother in law to fulfil her wish to stay in her own home. As her frailty increased, Nightingales were able to match the care to her needs. The management and dedicated carers were absolutely wonderful. They combined professionalism with warmth. The client's
best interests and dignity were at all times at the centre of the care given. The last 6 months required 24-hour care and Nightingales never faltered throughout that time. They provided a live-in carer who was superbly supported by the previous team of carers who had looked after for my mother in law. All worked together extremely well and that continuity of known carers was vital for the client and the family. We feel very fortunate to have had Nightingales as our locally based carers. I would highly recommend them.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Very pleased with Nightingales service. As my Mother was bed bound, we needed an extra degree of care which the staff were sympathetic towards. Would recommend to others in our situation. Thanks for all your hard work.

Review from Bernie H (Son of Client) published on 1 August 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Extremely happy with the overall service. When our carer first came to our home she established an immediate rapport with my mother and made my wife and I feel confident and comfortable with the care package they could provide. When it came to the actual provision we were not disappointed. All the staff
were extremely helpful and were fantastic with mum, under some very difficult circumstances, (mum was very ill at the time).
Nightingales were also very flexible in their approach. When we asked for additional time/cover, even at short notice over a weekend, they came up trumps. We speak to highly of the team that helped us. Thank you so much, you were great.

Review from Meekal H (Son of Client) published on 2 November 2015 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
For the last 5 week of my father's life, Nightingales provided him with 24 hour care. It was an incredibly difficult time for us and the Nightingales manager and the lady who looked after my father were absolutely brilliant. For those few weeks, my father's carer became on of the family and everyone
who interacted with her commended on how lovely she was. We simply would not have managed without her. Thank you Nightingales.

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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.926 for Nightingales HomeCare is calculated as follows: ( (226 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 244 Ratings = 4.926
  2. 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 Nightingales HomeCare is based on 41 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
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
