Perfect Care has been the care company looking after my elderly father for several years now and without the daily carers going in and professionally looking after him every day he wouldn't be able to live as independently as he does. The carers often go above and beyond what's on their checklist of
tasks to do, they are the eyes and ears of relatives that are not able to always be hands on themselves.
They keep us well informed of any issues we may need to know about and work well with the office team as well.

Reply from Danielle Rippon, Head of Marketing & Reporting at Perfect Care - Durham

Thank you for such a positive review. We are delighted to hear that the care we provide is exceeding expectations and the we are able to assist your father in living independently.

I cared for my wife for the last few months of her life at home, which was her wish. Had 2 carers morning and evening, they were brilliant, so gentle, friendly and professional. I could see that they genuinely care and also the support and advice they gave me to care for my wife helped a great deal
such special people of whom I'm eternally grateful too.

Some excellent carers but unfortunately I slipped whilst being assisted to shower. I have suffered much pain and spent thousands of pounds as a result. I had broken my hip and my knee and am now attempting to walk with an aid.
Very disappointed.
Some young, poor staff were clueless.

I cannot fault the care I received for my dad, we managed to get him home fast and the care plan sorted within a day allowing my dad to have his remaining time at home. Care staff were confident to deal with end of life and understood our needs and wishes and were able to keep him comfortable at home.

Everything is going well at the moment. It makes a difference when we know which carer is coming and at what time. It has not always been so. I have nothing but good to say about our present carers. They are helpful and pleasant.

Nana tells me about how nice some of the staff are that visit her and take care of her which is lovely to hear. Feedback has been provided as sometimes the staff find it difficult to cook certain meals but on the whole she is generally pleased with the service.

Carers call on a weekend to check Dad has taken tablets and help with meals. Carers have all been very nice with Dad and it’s peace of mind for me when I’m not around to know that he is being checked up on and won’t miss his medication. I find the app very useful showing the scheduled time of visit
and a summary of what’s been done.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.507)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.507) out of 10 for Perfect Care - Durham is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.507 for Perfect Care - Durham is calculated as follows: ( (100 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (18 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.507

  • 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 Perfect Care - Durham is based on 20 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.
