You Before Me Care does exactly what the name says, they are a family-run organisation whose main goal is to put people first.

They believe that the care industry has experienced many tragic failures, some so severe they have resulted in loss of life due to negligence of incompetent workforce and outdated attitudes which have no place in today's care.

As a result, this care organisation formed by a family of nurses with a combined 40 years, has done what it set out to do.

You Before Me Care is very caring and makes their clients feel part of the family.

They offer a variety of services all designed to make clients stay in their home for longer and have services designed for people who have just come out of hospital looking for reablement.

A full list of these is provided on their brochure which is free to download as per request on this website.

Review from Christine (Daughter of Client) published on 10 December 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The carers at Flamelilly, now called YouB4Me, have been amazing.
They care for Mum who has significant mobility issues and lives with Dementia and have made it possible for Mum to live independently and safely at home, the team's understanding of dementia has been invaluable in this. They communicate
well with both Mum and I and have never adopted an "I know best approach" instead, taking time to understand how to help Mum co-operate. They respond quickly and flexibly to whatever arises.
Mum has had their friendship and caring support for 11 months and the team continues to strive to find ways of improving Mum's quality of life; be that ensuring she has food she enjoys or helping her find things that she can still do and enjoy.
I have personally found their attitude to caring for Mum and their attention to detail invaluable; they will always go the extra mile and I know that if they say they will do something it will happen.
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 4.966 for You Before Me Care is calculated as follows: ( (28 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 29 Ratings = 4.966
  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 You Before Me Care is based on 5 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4.5

  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
