Review took place at client's home as requested by myself. I wanted some additional duties added to the list, which were noted & added to the details. Visit & review were carried out in a friendly & warm & caring manner. Manager interacted with myself & my dad & listened & took an interest in 'small
talk' not connected to the review. Gives myself peace of mind that my dad has good support from people who care.

We are currently satisfied with our two carers. However, it has taken us several weeks to get to this position. Some carers clearly don't respect their training, and they complain that they are being put out. Not understanding the fact that they are here to work for the client, and they have chosen
this profession.

Very happy with care given to mum. Always listens to her, and she enjoys the chat. Almost always has the same carer which is great for her. Easy to contact office if needed. Thank you Helping Hands.

I don't have family members living nearby. They all live miles away.They do visit every six weeks so my only contact with people is with the carrers from Helping Hands.I have 2 one hour visits and 3 half hour visits per week. They make my lunch and wash dishes and then we have a chat.They can also water
the odd plant as I can't carry a watering can. They are also very good at changing the bed as duvets can be very difficult.


I have found all the helpers have been very good and have been very satisfied with Helping Hands.

The team of carers who support my Mother 3 mornings a week are kind and willing to do whatever is needed on the day. The flexibility to be able to drive her to an appointment or to accompany her to an appointment is really helpful. We are also grateful for the management team to be able to change
the care appointments if necessary at short notice.

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 4.797 for Helping Hands Home Care (Wirral) is calculated as follows: ( (48 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.797

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Helping Hands Home Care (Wirral) is based on 10 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

  • 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.
