I have been having HRM Homecare Services - Central West for a year and am happy with the carers provided. My only complaint is that there is not enough time allocated for the girls to spend time with me. I feel lonely without care.

Both male, personal carers have been first class. Both attend on time and both are friendly and professional. With initial misgivings at 91 years old, of having male personal carers, I was relieved when I met them, as they are so professional.

I have been with HRM Homecare Services since 2020 and I am satisfied with the service and care that I get. The people that I receive from them is very good and give me 110% 7 days a week. They also go to extreme care helping with me doing different things around the house. I always like having a talk

I gave a poor review for management because three times I phoned to request someone to have my carpet cleaned after one carer accidentally got oil marks on it, and I was told someone would get back to me and no one did. I felt I was being ignored and ended up getting a family member to do it.

Great company. The staff are very caring. We are very happy with HRM and cannot thank you for all your support and excellent staff. You are always very helpful and ready to help i.e. when we phone your company are always offering help and support and they reassure us they are always available on the
telephone to assist us all. A very professional company - well done to you all. Thank you!

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 4.623 for HRM Homecare Services - Central West is calculated as follows: ( (92 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 122 Ratings = 4.623
  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, 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 HRM Homecare Services - Central West is based on 20 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.
