Bright Dawn were very quick and responsive to provide a companion/care for my wife during the time she was in hospital. In a time of great stress, we were very grateful for their flexibility and support. The carers were all lovely but special thanks to one staff member who was particularly lovely.

Very pleased with everything. The carer who comes to look after me was well matched to my needs and interests. Always on time and very pleasant company too. Extremely pleased with the company's communication, correspondence and admin too, though three are secondary really to the excellent care we have
received from our carer.

My husband has three regular waking night carers. They are all excellent and go that extra mile. They treat him with respect and have great patience. All dealings with the company have been positive. They are all trained well and I can always rely on them. When he is being difficult, they come in and
take over and calm him down.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Truly dreadful service, several carers were totally unsuitable. Two spoke hardly any English. One had "issues with inappropriate touching" but was still sent on calls. Three did various amounts of damage to my property which the company would not put right, now I have finished with them and paid them
and today I've been threatened for non-payment. I never had a service agreement although it was promised in the post.
Reply from Tracy Ferreira, Registered Manager at Bright Dawn Home Care

Thank you for your review, we take reviews to heart to improve our services, however we feel in these circumstances we have dealt with each matter appropriately and did our best to provide the quality service we pride ourselves on. You declined cleaning staff and requested care assistants to clean. Our staff are complimented on their care and empathy, we endeavoured to meet your requirements, ultimately going through every member of staff available. The "inappropriate touching" was intended as supportive and caring to you when you were upset. We did investigate this matter and found no cause for concern. On the occasion where crockery was broken, it happened after the care assistant had left the property, so was not taken further. The harassment you refer to was a reminder for a late payment which arrived simultaneously on the same day as your payment. All of your signed documents were sent to you first class after you could not open the PDFs. We wish you all the best for the future.

My dad has been receiving care from Bright Dawn Home Care since he came out of hospital in February 2024. From the onset, they were efficient in understanding his needs and providing suitable care. A very different experience than that from a previous care agency. They have continued to be very accommodating
and efficient in meeting his needs, are always available for any queries and these are acted on promptly. All staff I have encountered have been professional and caring and continuity of care is at their forefront. I would have no hesitation in recommending Bright Dawn Home Care.

Thank you for your wonderful review! It's great to know we excel in places where others have not met your needs. We pride ourselves on being person-centred so nice to know our care assistants are representing Bright Dawn with our ethos and providing care that stands out.

Review from Darryl G (Son of Client) published on 29 May 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have used Bright Dawn Home Care in the past and I needed emergency care support two weeks ago for my house-bound mom. I had no hesitation in calling Bright Dawn first thing to ask for some support as my mom wasn't too well and I felt confident that the Bright Dawn team would be able to assist me.
No sooner had I called the office that I had arranged for the team to start visiting Mom the very next day which was at very short notice (Friday PM) asking for weekend support. As usual, the carer who turned up was extremely professional and extremely caring towards Mom which is exactly what you need in times of illness. I then had to call a few days later as Mom would have had to be admitted to the hospital if I hadn't had the support of Bright Dawn, this in itself makes me, the carer, feel extremely supported knowing that you have someone giving you support as Bright Dawn always do. I would thoroughly recommend Bright Dawn as they always give 100% and are always able to work around your needs.

Thank you so much for your review; we always strive to go above and beyond when it is safe to do so! We are here to support you as much as we support your mom. We're always at the end of the phone.

Good and reliable service. No problems. Always make contact if the carer is running late or has to be substituted. The cost is reasonable so represents good value for money. I feel they look after my wife’s needs.

The administration has become efficient and contact with the office is good. The groups of carers performed admirably.
I am not commenting on value for money point below as it is not really possible to do so without a number of companies with other providers to consider.

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 4.540 for Bright Dawn Home Care is calculated as follows: ( (81 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 113 Ratings = 4.54
  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 relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Bright Dawn Home 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.
