My uncle had very complex needs and was totally reliant on his carers. They were professional at all times and were the sole reason he was able to stay in his own home until his passing. Their communication with us as his family was outstanding and very much appreciated given that we live 250 miles
away. I have no hesitation in recommending this company who genuinely care for their clients. Thank you for everything.

I have been surprised by how many helpers you have got and have now (a fair three months or so). Very grateful to one in particular who comes regularly and I like her. The success of the service is because the staff all seem to be inspired by the same thing - the care of the patient. I do not like the
hours I have been given - 9:45am and 8:30pm - but I am used to them now and the staff are usually on time. The staff are caring and efficient and I have no criticism to make.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.778)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.778) out of 10 for Curagate Oxford is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 3 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.778 for Curagate Oxford is calculated as follows: ( (14 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 18 Ratings = 4.778

  • b) 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 Curagate Oxford is based on 3 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 = 4

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

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