Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have used Home Instead for the last 4 years. Originally for my husband who suffered from Alzheimer's, he could be a very difficult patient but the 2 carers who came (separately) always managed to calm him. Since my husband died the same carer's come to help me with household chores and shopping as
I suffer from chronic arthritis. They are extremely hard-working, understanding, and helpful. Always on time and very reliable and show great kindness.
Reply from Joanne Greenhalgh, Recruiter at Home Instead (Bury)
It's been a pleasure getting to know you and your husband over the years. I know our carers look forward to their weekly visits with you. Thank you for your review and kind words.

I would like to thank all the carers at Home Instead Whitefield for looking after my mum in her final weeks. Every carer treated her with respect, dignity and kindness.
Over the last few years, Mum needed help getting to and from her hospital appointments, which Home Instead also helped with, and
Mum came to become friends with them over this time.
I can highly recommend all the carers who looked after my mum and am forever grateful for their help and support.

Review from Christine N (Daughter of Client) published on 7 July 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
Home help was provided to my elderly parent with a mixed dementia diagnosis. I had noticed medication had stopped being taken (my mother took her own, with reminders). One of the care workers was seen informing my mother that she was just suffering from short term memory loss, which was normal for
her age when my mother had said she had been told she has Alzheimer's.
When this incident was discussed with the manager, the manager saw no issues with what the care worker had said as, in her words 'this complied with the dementia training, to avoid confrontation'.
I didn't feel the service was appropriate in this instance and clarification of their interpretation of the dementia training should be sought.

Always the same carer for you at your home, not different carer's like other agencies. The companionship, service, care, warmth, understanding and patience given from all the carers, staff and management at the Bury Home Instead agency was nothing more than anyone could have asked for.
They looked
after my brain diseased (Huntington's) mother at her home for over three years.
They took time to understand her needs but also got to understand her past life to better understand to find empathy to get to know her.
Their patience with her debilitating brain disease was exceptional.
Fully recommend Home Instead Bury.

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 4.917 for Home Instead (Bury) is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.917
  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 Home Instead (Bury) is based on 2 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 = 3.5
  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.
