Review from J E (Partner of Client) published on 2 December 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would highly recommend Linmar Care Ltd for the excellent care and respect they show my partner. They arrived at the same time every day to shower or bath him, all the time talking and laughing with him, making him feel relaxed. We have 3-4 carers weekly so he has got to know them quickly.

We have found LinMar to be a caring professional service provider. The team are always willing to help make Dad’s life more comfortable and to ensure his independence, dignity and daily routine are maintained. Any queries are handled promptly and the management team are happy to discuss options and/or
offer suggestions to move things forward. It is a huge relief to know you have someone trustworthy and caring to look after a parents needs when you can’t be with them.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have found Linmar Care to be an extremely personable and supportive company to work alongside as our mother's condition (vascular dementia) deteriorates. Their level of communication and integrity has always ensured that when there are difficulties, we've been able to resolve them in a professional
and caring manner. We have really appreciated the level expertise from the manager who understands how difficult it is to care for a loved one with dementia and has been willing to go above and beyond expectations when situations become are challenging. We would highly recommend this company.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot speak highly enough of the care provided by Linmar Care Ltd. We have been using their services for 3 months during lockdown and the support from the carers has made a big difference to the wellbeing of both my wife and myself. The girls are fun, caring, inventive and have made my wife interact
much more than she does when it is just the two of us. Nothing is too much trouble and we both look forward to their visits every week.

Unable to answer the cost question as the bills are paid by the client's son who lives 200 miles away.
All the staff are pleasant, well presented and patient with the client.

I am still happy to gush my praise for the quality of service we are afforded. Day in and day out we enjoy first-class attention. In fact, the level of care we are blessed with deserves a mark of 11 out of 10. Having been integrated by the Care Quality Commission I am happy to confirm all is ok here!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Linmar Care staff are competent, professional people their interventions enabled my mother to remain in her own home rather than seek a residential placement abiding her wishes. Their day-to-day management of her welfare and emotional support greatly confidently comforted us as her health declined.
Their care was highly complimented by her GP.

Unexpected palliative care was required at extremely short notice. That specialist care was provided and was invaluable. Expertise that not everyone has, or can offer.

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 4.764 for Linmar Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (56 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.764
  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 Linmar Care Ltd is based on 12 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.
