Review from Keith H (Son of Client) published on 21 July 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Seasoned Hands reacted really well and quickly to our call for help when my mother took ill. I live 350miles away from my mother, so knowing she is in good hands is essential. I use their app, which gives me visibility twice a day into my mother's condition and what the carers are doing for her.


We

have been using Seasoned Hands for about a month now, and they have always been professional and reliable, and as such, I would definitely recommend them. More importantly, my mother has benefitted greatly from their support and enjoys her daily interactions.

Review from Norma C (Daughter of Client) published on 6 April 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother is ninety-nine years young and is reliant on her two carers, four times daily. The carers are all very nice, very caring and they treat mum with the greatest respect and comply with all requests from both mum and myself, nothing is too much trouble. I would recommend them highly to anyone
who needs care. The management is also extremely caring and helpful. I can't praise them all enough.

Review from Norma B (Daughter of Client) published on 16 November 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother required in-home care for some time before her circumstances changed. Seasoned Hands provided that care three times per week, allowing mum to safely stay at home. She was very happy with her carers and looked forward to their company, as well as the care they gave her. I cannot fault their
attention to care and duty.
Reply from Festus Ojez, Manager at Seasoned Hands Care
Many thanks, Norma, we wish mum all the best in her new home.

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 4.964 for Seasoned Hands Care is calculated as follows: ( (27 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 28 Ratings = 4.964
  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 Seasoned Hands 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
  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.
