Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My father has been cared for by the Premier care team over the last two and a half years with increasing amounts of care being needed as he has become increasingly frail. He has always been treated with immense respect and dignity and always looked forward to the visits from his carers, particularly
over the last year with the covid situation. They became his friends and did everything that was required and more.

Carers are all very pleasant and helpful. They treat my husband with dignity and care. My husband enjoys meeting and getting to know the carers, particularly during lockdown. Continuity of care is an issue at the moment and a bit of a worry due to Covid 19.

My father has been having three visits a day from Premier Care for the past year. He has found the carers, without exception, to be caring, willing, capable and professional. They are happy to do whatever is needed and carry out their duties with a smile. I would be happy to recommend them to anyone
looking for care for a family member.

The care team have been extremely good, we have had previous care teams and I can’t express how bad they were. When a member of staff contacted me and offered me a care package she delivered what she said. The carers are very professional turn up or contact me to warn me they will be late which is a
major help to me, her daughter, knowing my mum is cared for. My mum finds the carers very friendly, helpful and a pleasure to see. Thank you to Premier Care.

Review from R S (Son of Client) published on 15 July 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My widowed mother is 90 years old and suffers from vascular dementia and continuing problems caused from previous fractures. Despite the varying 'mood swings' and difficulties in providing assistance to my mother, especially associated with a poor appetite, I have witnessed just how SUPERBLY all the
Premier Care staff display a kind and caring attitude/aptitude along with empathy, not only in assisting my mother but in supporting me, a 71-year-old son (and a 'trying carer') recovering from a heart attack.
I think the contacted office staff at Mansfield for their due diligence and their continuing assistance since October 2019.
Premier Care deserves to be given worthy recognition and I again thank EVERY care/nursing individual who has assisted my mum and myself to date!
In a world where criticism is often voiced, it is good to reflect on the OUTSTANDING operation in these difficult times from all associated with Premier Care!

Thanks to the wonderful care and support from all the staff at premier care my mum who has Alzheimer's is managing to live independently in her own home. Knowing that my mum is being treated with uttermost respect, dignity, kindness and empathy is very reassuring to myself and my sisters. The staff
are friendly and considerate and make mum feel very relaxed and happy. The management team are also excellent too very helpful and supportive. Thank you, everyone, at Premier Care you are wonderful.

Our previous care team surrendered their support for mum, we got Premier Care, and I could not believe the difference in standard from one team to another. The girls that have supported Mum have been outstanding and could not believe the difference in standard. Nothing is too much trouble, and they
are so good with Mum, and that is the most important thing. First-class service, personal care with a smile and laugh; thank you.

Overall care is good. Some more experienced staff is excellent. Poorer care, deskilling my Mum regarding using toilet noticeable, rather change pad than put on loo. Sister noticed a couple of times staff not washed hands after a bathroom visit. This was pointed out. Visit times can vary according to
staff availability. Extra jobs done poorly like mixed washing, clothes, poor washing pots. Overall though, with good staff, Mum happy and we know she gets proper meals in a day. Would like to see review of care instructions more often.

The front line brilliant, couldn't wish for better. Office not good on call, keep swapping times and carers. Continually ask for the rota. Not yet received one since started with the company last year. They don't listen, fed up with getting 6.45 calls, especially on weekends when we could do with a
lie in. Have asked for later calls on those days. Not happened.

Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
Regular carers are brilliant generally. Turnover of staff is far too frequent. Complaints and requests are not always adhered to. Dignity is everything so when you get lots of different staff coming to do personal care, it is undignified. Some staff read notes and give 100%. Others are clock watching
and do as little as possible. The attitude of some carers is not very caring. Rush, Rush, Rush, playing catch up as overstretched.

My son has been "blue lined" but carers repeatedly turn up early, but mostly late. Complaints have been made and it is OK for a short while, then they are regularly late again and again. This is very poor service and must be sorted out. Now I am logging times for a complaint letter to be sent to the
care service who provide part funding.

My husband is 90 years old with Alzheimer's, which he has had for ten and a half years. So I expect his carers to know how to cope with him. Unfortunately, for some reason, we do not get regular carers so we get people who are inexperienced, which is not good enough.
I have complained but this falls
on deaf ears, nobody wants to know. I am not well myself so this is also causing me a lot of stress to the point where I have to put him in respite.
We need regular carers who are experienced in dealing with my husband, not some flipper machivets.

My mother has been using your company since March 2019. One visit in a morning. Breakfast time care. Timing of visits terrible. Some mornings Mum was eating breakfast as lunchtime was nearly upon us! So late. More 'Brunch' time than breakfast. Some carers lack 'basic' commonsense. Things that are so
obvious! Until I had a good chat with the manager service was not great. Timing seems better since the chat. Let's hope it remains this way.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.688)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.688) out of 10 for Premier Community - Erewash is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.688 for Premier Community - Erewash is calculated as follows: ( (55 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 77 Ratings = 4.688
  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 Premier Community - Erewash is based on 13 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.
