Review from P M (Wife of Client) published on 29 April 2021 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Having never been in need of personal care in our home, it was a relief to have carers who cheerfully looked after my terminally ill husband with kindness and compassion. We looked forward to their visits, and my husband was relaxed and happy with the way they cared for him. We relied on them to make
him clean and comfortable, which they did until he sadly died. I miss them but remember them with gratitude.

Review from A H (Wife of Client) published on 28 April 2021 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care my husband receives is very compassionate. My husband cannot communicate but the carers are always careful to follow a routine and they know his likes and dislikes. They also explain calmly and clearly what they are doing. They are always polite and discreet and very professional.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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 4.566 for Fuchsia Homecare Cambridge is calculated as follows: ( (45 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 76 Ratings = 4.566
  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 Fuchsia Homecare Cambridge 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 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4.825
  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.
