All the ladies that helped my mother were lovely and we could always look at my mother's paperwork to find out what she had been like. They always had time for her and helped with popping to the chemist or dropping things off at the doctors.
Cannot rate them any better. Thank you to you all.

All the carers are kind, caring and friendly to my mum. She enjoys seeing them all and I have found the ladies in the office very helpful, friendly and accommodating.
One tiny little niggle is when a carer visits mum earlier in the afternoon than the time stated on the rota, when we take mum out we
aim to return her in time for her carer and if the carer arrives early it does cause a worry for them and mum but generally we are very pleased with Bramble Home Care and happy with how they look after mum.

From the word go from the first review sounded promising and managed to turn out better than promised and cannot fault anybody for their bedside manner and caring attitude. Marks out of 10, I would give 11, because they were there when needed without quibble.

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 4.333 for Bramble Home Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (5 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.333

    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 Bramble Home Care Ltd is based on 2 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 = 3.5
