Flexibility of carers' timeslot is excellent from our viewpoint. Carers usually arrive within the expected window. Carers always wear personal protection. The carers we see carry out our wishes with regard to washing/showering and dressing to our satisfaction. Other normal tasks are undertaken when
requested.

Review from Stephanie F (Daughter of Client) published on 10 September 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my parents' care needs have increased over the last 20 months and My Homecare have always been able to adapt quickly and appropriately to arising situations and meet their needs so that I know my parents are safe. The manager has been able to create rotas that work well for me and my parents and
respond to queries helpfully.
The carers are well trained and kept up to date about changing needs by the manager. They are exemplary in every way being conscientious in respecting my parents likes and routines. They are kind, compassionate and patient judging situations well. Neighbours have commented favourably on the carers. We have also been so appreciative that the care ladies we have are invariably the same. They are familiar faces that I have enjoyed getting to know and this continuity of care is also good for my parents. The carers are happy to update me as to how things have gone each visit too.
Communication, continuity and care are excellent.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am extremely pleased with the respite care I received recently, which allowed me a few hours to do other errands safely in the knowledge that my elderly mum was not at home alone.


The coordinator kindly arranged two different ladies to come on several occasions. They were reliable, and respectful,

and executed their tasks enthusiastically and professionally. I will definitely use this service in future and highly recommend My Homecare West Kent to others looking for support.
Reply from Katie Starr, Director at My Homecare West KentThank you for the kind words. Our staff try incredibly hard and it is so nice to know their efforts are appreciated. Will be sure to pass along your praise to the team. Kind Regards, Katie

Best carers I have used.
Always prepared to do anything asked.
All my carers are overworked and underpaid.
They never complain about anything.
The company is always easy to contact.

My husband was very ill when my family and myself felt we needed further help. Although My Homecare were very busy, they made time for us which happened to start at a weekend, the most difficult time. They made themselves available and treated my husband with dignity, care and gentleness with even a
few jokes. They came twice a day sometimes with one member of staff but mainly with two. It helped to have the same carers. Words cannot express mine and my families thanks for all you did.

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 4.667 for My Homecare West Kent is calculated as follows: ( (42 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.667
  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, 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 My Homecare West Kent is based on 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 4.75
  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.
