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 4.962 for Helping Hands Home Care (Tunbridge Wells) is calculated as follows: ( (51 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 53 Ratings = 4.962

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Helping Hands Home Care (Tunbridge Wells) is based on 9 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 = 4.9
  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.

Job Title: Branch Care Manager

Since 2012, I’ve built a rewarding career in care, beginning as an elderly care worker and
transitioning to supported living for individuals with learning disabilities.
I advanced from team leader to service manager before joining Helping Hands in 2024
as a manager. My time here has been amazing, highlighting the true essence of care.
I’m continuously inspired by the incredible carers and feel privileged to make a
meaningful impact every day.
