Most frequent male carer is diligent and caring and goes above and beyond his role to care, support and guide. Carers respect my dignity, and given the circumstances, make me feel as comfortable as possible during personal care. The team are as accommodating as they can be to fit care visits around
my schedule of physio, etc. I feel safe in their hands. I wouldn't have chosen a male carer, but my main male carer is simply the best! Some male carers are not as experienced as our main male carer and could do with some more training.

Reply from Alison Bullous, Head of Service at Aroma Care Warwickshire

Thank you for your positive feedback and we are so pleased to hear your regular carer is delivering great care. Your cover carer will have completed the same training as your regular carer but it often takes a little longer to build the same rapport when they don't see the same clients everyday. Please feel free to contact us if we can support you with anything further.

Carers arriving late for morning visit, then only staying for 10 minutes instead of the allotted 45mins. Carers reported that they have completed all tasks on the care plan, when they have neglected essential personal care. Carers arguing and being confrontational with elderly parents, refusing to
do simple tasks on the care plan such as make the bed, apply cream to pressure areas, put hearing aids in ears. Refusing to change the night catheter bag.
Carers arriving 2 hours early in the evening and arguing with frail parents at being asked to come back at the right time.
Management contacted and not apologised for any of the above concerns and just became defensive. Informed me and my parents that we had unrealistic expectations of care!!!
The CQC rating of 'needs improvement' is still very much relevant and appropriate.

I'm not very happy with the lapse of them leaving my door open 3 times now when my son and grandson came home to find the door unlocked. And I have asked for a shower, which would not take more than 1/2 hour, they said I had to book an appointment, rubbish as they only spend about 10 mins every day,
when they are supposed to spend 1/2 hour.

Reply from Alison Bullous, Head of Service at Aroma Care Warwickshire

Thank you for your feedback we are naturally disappointed that you did not find our service to your expectations. As we have no record of the issues being highlighted whilst you were receiving care from us unfortunately we are unable to investigate further.We do however wish you every success with your new provider.

My condition is parkinsons. Aroma Care have looked after me since 2022. I would rate nearly all the carers as excellent. They are patient, helpful and kind. They encourage me to do what I can myself but always safely close enough for me to be safe.
My only concern is that their workload is very heavy
and they are sometimes very late in the mornings. When that happens, they sometimes telephone to let me know.
I have not rated value for money because I only pay part of the cost, the rest is paid by the local authority and I don't know what the total cost is.

Reply from Alison Bullous, Head of Service at Aroma Care Warwickshire

Thank you for your feedback, we are so pleased the carers are delivering excellent care. We are sorry to hear that you sometimes experience late visits in the mornings and whilst we know sometimes emergencies happen causing delays we will look into this and try to minimise this as a priority.

Most of the time I have the same carers come who are kind, polite and respectful. They complete tasks such as helping shower/dress me etc with dignity. Sometimes carers are changed and sent newly trained staff who I then need to explain what they need to do for me. My regular carers I have built a good
rapport with as they will have a chat with me as I'm elderly, I get lonely sometimes and need someone to talk to.

I was a bit apprehensive about someone coming in to help us get undressed and dressed, and putting elastic stockings on and off I am coeliac and have mishaps with the toilet. The person I have nothing is too much trouble for them in the hot weather; meals are a problem. I have various hospital appointments,
and I mention this to the carer, and they adjust times a lot, which enables me to stay in my own home.

Aroma Care are providing excellent care for my elderly father, prior to Aroma Care, Dad has always hated anyone being in the house apart from Family, but he has built up a rapport with the Carers and has said himself that they are excellent and feels very comfortable with them. His health has recently
deteriorated after a spell in hospital, and the Carers have just taken this in their stride, never leaving him until he is settled and comfortable, they are also quick to call us with any concerns or questions. When speaking with the Head Office, I have always found them to be very helpful, caring and professional, always happy to pass on my numerous requests these days to the Carers which are always carried out. As a family all of the above, has given us great peace of mind. A big thank you to all at Aroma Care.

Your staff is generally very good but sometimes you put two learners together that do not know all of the procedures and the client has to show them what to do. Not good recommendation.

We have only been clients for 1 week. The carers who assisted us have been polite, friendly and caring.
The help and assistance have been appreciated.
We did have a Sunday morning visit which had a problem. The carer didn't arrive until 13:00. Visitors who came at 11:00 gave my Father breakfast, but
he remained in his nightwear until 13:00.

I enjoy seeing my regular carer, she is kind and thoughtful. She goes above and beyond to make sure I have everything I need and am well cared for. She is always friendly and smiley. I understand that carers are busy people but it is helpful when they can arrive at regular times. This has been OK recently.

The carers are always well presented in their uniforms, wearing a name badge would be helpful for the client and anyone else who is present when carers are there. Carers are helpful when a urine sample has been requested by the GP for example. Ideally, if carers had more allocated time they might have
time to chat.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 3.703 for Aroma Care Warwickshire is calculated as follows: ( (48 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (17 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (19 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 128 Ratings = 3.703

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Aroma Care Warwickshire 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

  • 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.
