Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very good all round, from the friendliness and helpfulness of all the carers to their punctuality and flexibility.
Also very good at updating key contact and helping to sort out minor issues.
The whole family, including my mother, has been more than happy with the standard of care she has received
since Expectation Care began their visits.

Excellent service from coordinator, who was very flexible when I needed last minute care, and again when I had to change arrangements at the last minute.
The carer who attended me was kind and gentle, but also very thorough, professional and efficient. I would recommend to anyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team are great with my dad, can’t do enough for him whilst here and are very friendly. They each tailor my dad’s changing needs to suit him, never rushing him, allowing him to try and remain semi-independent in his own home.
The team are very good at covering short-notice changes which is amazing.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our family were very happy with the care provided by Expectation Care. The team came to our home initially and took note of my Dad's care requirements and communicating was easy via their app.
Dad was cared for with kindness and respect and the carers were always friendly to all family members if they
were at home with Dad. The support shown to my Mum was much appreciated. Care visit times were initially agreed and carers were reliable to come at these times. The carers that attended were generally the same team which helped to make everyone feel at ease.

I would just like to say a very big thank you to all of your staff for their excellent care and support whilst looking after my father-in-law. Everyone we encountered was caring, kind, compassionate and professional at a very difficult and stressful time for us all. As a family, we are all so very grateful.
Many thanks once again.

I am very pleased with my husband's care since the Expectation Care team started 4 weeks ago. As my husband has Alzheimer's they always explain to him what care they are giving him with each visit in a polite and friendly way. They keep to the time schedule and have been flexible recently when a new
bed arrived. Their help is much appreciated by myself and my family.

Thank you very much for such a kind review. Our aim is to exceed expectations. Your husband is such a lovely man who always brings joy and laughter to the carer before, during, and after care. Regards.

My son, a carer, and a carer from the company, for my dignity, work well together. When my son is unavailable, I have two carers from the company. To have carers who enjoy their job, are cheerful, chatty and are caring is great. Management who want to listen to you, perfect support.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Two years on, Expectation Care continues to meet and exceed our expectations. We have seen the quality of care continue to increase as the staff display high levels of experience and professionalism. Over time, we have seen new routines and management strategies successfully evolve, which makes everything
feel efficient and stress-free from a client perspective. The company always strives for consistency, and the client's comfort is always a top priority - every day Dad is met with a familiar face, or a formal introduction and full induction are always given to any new member of staff working with him. The carers continue to be warm, patient and compassionate, treating us all like family. We know it is not an easy job, and everyone has their challenges, but they still strive to put us first. The management team are always there for us too. We cannot thank the whole team enough for their hard work and devotion. May God richly bless and reward them for all they do.

Review from Paul D (Son of Client) published on 25 September 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
With the caveat that I have had no previous experience of care, these are the first carers that we found for my father. Since then we have not been disappointed in any way with the care that has been provided and have never felt any need to look elsewhere.
Cost of care was an important factor and I
still think that their rates are very competitive. We certainly have not felt short-changed for the service that we get.
Staff are attentive, reliable and managers responded to any of our queries that have always been answered in a positive way.
They have also, been pro-active with occasional issues, offering solutions to problems before I was aware of them.
Above all, although the care is for my father, both my father and my mother feel comfortable with this care company and I believe they look forward to their visits. I am very pleased with our choice of care provider.

We required urgent care needs and the staff met is prior to mum being discharged and took time to visit the home and meet the client prior to discharge. The carers were always on time, cheerful, caring and brought a smile to my mum every day. The carers paid attention to detail applying creams and combing
her hair. The service was very professional and we were extremely pleased with the wonderful service they presented.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.250)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.250) out of 10 for Expectation Care Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 4 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 5.000 for Expectation Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 23 Ratings = 5
  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 Expectation Care Ltd is based on 4 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 4.25
  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.
