The carers have been consistently polite, friendly and respectful in their interactions. It would be good if we were informed if they are not able to perform a task ie teeth being cleaned without asking. I suspect this is something which is documented in the notes. However, the digital notes system
used to record visits isn't always easily accessible ie the information logged often feels generic or administrative. It would be far more useful if the notes included meaningful updates about the patients wellbeing for example whether personal care tasks like tooth cleaning were completed. This would help family stay informed ensure continuity of rate written notes would be better for older clients.

I cannot praise this company enough, their dedication to the service they provide, the professionalism of the company coming out to check if everything is working properly & I am happy with the care I'm receiving. The carers are always courteous ,gentle & thorough in their work methods. Always motivating
& encouraging me to push forward. Members of my family are always commenting that I have some amazing carers. I can have a laugh and a joke with my carers, many of which I've consider my friends.
Quite honestly I cannot find a single fault with this company, they have shown themselves to be consistent from the Management to the care workers never faltering and always delivering professional quality care.


I'm getting to a stage now where I'm becoming more mobile and the SSA management are working closely with my occupational health team to put things in place ready for the transition. I highly recommend this company, Quite simply THE BEST!

Review from J D (Client) assisted by family/friend published on 24 June 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
SSA Quality Care have been looking after me at home following the completion of hospice care's excellent 12 week programme on the 2nd February 2025. SSA's team of lovely lady carers provide wonderful help and support to myself and to my husband with all my intimate personal needs, although my husband
can handle all aspects of the commode when we are on our own. Without all this I would not be able to have as full and enjoyable a life as possible, here at home, following the cessation of my cancer treatment last October, which left me with severe fatigue and weakness (ongoing) and nausea (now treated with daily medication, enabling me to eat well and enjoy my food). My husband and I look forward to every SSA visit, which helps the day go round, and share lots of laughter with the carers, who all have lovely smiles, a sense of humour, perfect manners, a willingness to help in anyway, and are backed up by excellent service from their Aylesbury office. We could not be more grateful and thankful for this wonderful service.

As a family we are incredibly grateful for the kindness, patience and compassion shown to our mum by your lovely carers. Their gentle approach, respectful attitude and genuine care made a world of difference to us and to mum.
Mum was always consulted and treated with dignity, your carers took time
to listen, support and brighten both mum's and our day.
It was comforting for us as a family to know that our lovely mum was in safe, caring hands.
The team were very thoughtful, professional and dedicated.
Thank you so much.

SSA Quality Care are the best care company I've had, they are courteous,professional & you can have a laugh & a joke with them. They are professional enough to supply a rota every Friday giving you the times of attendance and the attending carers.
I've personally had them go above & beyond on occasion
when I've fallen ill and require help.
I have no reservations about recommending this company.
Management will visit to check on my care and discuss any concerns I may have as well as if I require changes to my care plan.

I have been receiving care from SSA Quality Care for the past six months, and my experience has been consistently positive. The team is exceptionally professional and demonstrates a high level of friendliness and respect. They always ensure that I feel treated with dignity, and each visit includes a
few moments of warm companionship, which I truly appreciate. The caregivers are consistently attentive, taking the time to check if there is anything else they can assist with before they leave, ensuring that no request is too small or troublesome. Their commitment to providing thorough and compassionate care is evident in everything they do. Additionally, the team's polite and welcoming attitude not only towards me but also my family, making them feel involved and valued in the care process. I am grateful for the support and attention they provide.

Happy with the care I have received so far from this care provider. Especially with my experience in the quality of care that I previously received from other care providers, including my recent care home experience. The carers with SSA are super-individuals with hearts of gold, who are ever ready to
help others. The good service they are providing to service users like myself speaks for itself. And I would recommend them to anyone who may be in need of their professional services!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.576)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.576) out of 10 for SSA Quality Care is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.576 for SSA Quality Care is calculated as follows: ( (59 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 99 Ratings = 4.576
  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 SSA Quality 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
  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.
