Review from Angela P (Daughter of Client) published on 18 March 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has carers 3 times a week st the moment. She is a very independent 96-year-old but the carers have been sensitive to that and built a good relationship with her. They have been very reliable and friendly and my mother looks forward to their visits. Management is very good and easy to contact,
being flexible in changes we have had to make. I would thoroughly recommend My Homecare.

I have been with My Homecare Assistance for approximately 4 years. I have been a carer on and off for a lot of years. Then I became ill and had 2 or 3 other home care agencies. My Homecare Assistance is far superior, the carers are very friendly and supportive, and would help in any way. Also, if I
ever need to ring the office the people on the end of the phone are very helpful. I think I would be lost without them. Their confidentiality is second to none.

The carers look after my mam very well. She needs limited intervention and they appreciate that she was initially very reluctant to having care at home but she appreciates their visits and kindness now.

We live on a working farm so having My Homecare take care of my mother when I am bust, really helps us. They are friendly and help my mam get washed and dressed.
She enjoys their visits.

The staff are all very kind to my mam. Her main carer comes most days so she is very comfortable with her. She is helped with bathing and put to bed/helped out of bed daily and other small tasks. Medication is administered safely. I am very satisfied. Thank you.

I find the care of my mother by the girls to be very friendly. They all go the extra mile to ensure she is comfortable and settled before they leave. They are all very cheerful and chatty. The service of the company and all the carers are very professional and friendly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is my first experience with the home care service and so far it's been a good one. I'm in fact delighted with the help I receive which is quite straight forward but quite straight forward, but quite essential to me. Helping me with putting on compression stockings which have become most difficult
recently due to osteoarthritis. The result has been remarkable. The assistants are pleasant, professional and friendly. I can't praise them enough well done!

Carers are excellent, professional, treat Mam with dignity, go above and beyond duty to ensure patients healthy and wellbeing. Great at keeping in touch with me and updating me in reference to any concerns. I have peace of mind in the knowledge that she is cared for by trustworthy, reliable carers.
You can't put a price on that! Would recommend 110% to anyone.

Excellent service and if I ask for anything to be done, like urine test dropped to doctors, always done. My mother is happy with all the carers. The office is always helpful in providing rota and arranging anything I ask for.


The main carer goes out of her way to look after my mother, extremely happy

with what she does.

Overview of Review Score

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 2 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 4.500 for The Care and Support Group County Durham is calculated as follows: ( (6 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.5
  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, 0.5 Points for the second and third Positive Reviews, 0.25 Points for each of the next two Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.05, 7th = 0.05, 8th = 0.05, 9th = 0.05, 10th = 0.05, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for The Care and Support Group County Durham 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.
