Apollo Care (West Wirral) provide a holistic service, enabling the individual to remain living in their own homes for as long as possible. They offer clients a package of care to suit their needs and can supply support and advice to clients. The aim is to enable clients to remain as self-caring as possible, providing assistance when required.

All staff are checked and vetted through DBS and references. Care staff are matched to clients enabling Apollo Care to create a good service user/carer relationship.

Apollo Care (West Wirral) recognises it is not just the client who requires support but also the families or individuals who support them. They can also provide a befriending service to offer respite to the carer.

They understand each service user has their own interests, personal likes and dislikes and their aim is to brighten up their day and offer support when friends and family are unable to.”

The carer was punctual and polite to both myself and my mother. She answered my questions efficiently and was able to help me with changes to my weekly rota. Would definitely recommend Apollo Care.

The manager and the carers have always been very responsive and supportive of my mother's needs. Some carers have also become good friends with my mum. Many thanks for your continued service that has enabled my mother to live in her own home and which provides me with an overall peace of mind that she
is being well looked after.

I feel we were very lucky to find Apollo for their care services for Mum. They had been highly recommended and have not disappointed. Their staff and admin are excellent. Their clients review policies are very good and provide valuable feedback both for family and for the carers. The never hesitate
to ring or email with a concern and so we feel very reassured. They quickly organise to take Mum for a hospital visit or anything we have asked, outside the planned visits. Also, the carers bring much joy to her life, both for doing the essentials, having nice chats, and also taking her for a short drive to 'see the sea' or have a coffee.

Pleasantly surprised considering some of the horror stories we've heard relating to some of the home care services on offer. My elderly mother is very happy with the service she receives from Apollo which is all that matters!

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 4.718 for Apollo Care (West Wirral) is calculated as follows: ( (56 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.718

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Apollo Care (West Wirral) is based on 11 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.
