Review from William T (Son of Client) published on 22 January 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The service that we received from the entire Unite Healthcare team was truly outstanding. They looked after my late mother extremely well. The carers were always reliable and very professional in everything they did for mum. They treated her with great compassion, respect, encouragement and when appropriate
humour. There is no doubt that the excellent quality of care provided by the Unite team was a major factor in helping mum to keep her dignity, feel loved and respected and to remain safely in her own home. Mum loved each and every carer that looked after; a true reflection of how each carer went above and beyond "just doing a job." It was a privilege to have such superb carers supporting and looking after mum.


I thoroughly recommend Unite Healthcare to anyone looking for the best care that it is possible to give.

Reply from Daniel Butler, Director at Unite Healthcare Ltd PrescotHi William,

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and heartfelt review.

We're truly honoured that Unite Healthcare was able to support your late mother, and we're very grateful for your kind words about our whole team. Knowing that our carers helped her to feel safe, respected and cared for in her own home - while maintaining her dignity - means a great deal to us.

Your recognition of their reliability, professionalism, compassion and warmth (and even the humour when it was needed) will mean so much to the carers who supported your mum. They genuinely care deeply about the people they look after, and it's wonderful to hear that your mum felt that connection with each and every one of them.

Thank you again for trusting us at such an important time.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We used Unite Healthcare for my dad for a number of years and couldn't recommend them highly enough.All the staff were very friendly and professional and my dad saw all the carers as his friends and they always went the extra mile in providing an outstanding service. He eventually had to go into a care
home but had been able to stay at home as he wanted much longer because of the great carers at Unite and I can't thank Pat and Michelle enough
Reply from Daniel Butler, Director at Unite Healthcare Ltd PrescotHi Sally,

I hope he is settling in well and flourishing in his new home.
Warm regards,
Daniel

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 5.000 for Unite Healthcare Ltd Prescot is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.5 Points for the second and third Positive Reviews, 0.25 Points for each of the next two Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.05, 7th = 0.05, 8th = 0.05, 9th = 0.05, 10th = 0.05, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Unite Healthcare Ltd Prescot is based on 2 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 = 3.5
  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.
