The carers have been attentive and patient with my father. They allow him to take his time and help with showering him. I am very happy with the service I have received.

Overall experience has been very good. I am pleased with the carers, by their dedication to the job. They are always punctual. They make sure they look out for me very well. I'm happy I get to keep the same set of carers.

In my opinion, the carers need more training. My husband was stripped of his clothes, left exposed. I explained to them they should cover and wash bit by bit. It was upsetting and degrading for my husband, they need to respect the person, with dignity. They are also very messy and not hygienic at all,
they clean his bottom and touch other objects instead of changing their gloves. They need to learn basic training first.

My husband's carers were fantastic in difficult times. Always cheerful and helpful. Even when my husband was gravely ill as soon as I said 'the boys will soon be here' his face would light up! Thank you once again for their help and please send them my love and thanks!

I am very happy with the care and support my Dad is receiving from the two carers we are having 3 times a day. They are both very friendly and are always polite when I open the front door to them and when they leave. Very good time-keepers too.

Could not ask for a nicer and more friendly carer for my father. She is always on time and is always making sure my father is comfortable, and no matter what my father asks for, it is not an issue for her. Highly recommend this carer to other clients.

Exceptional Care at Home staff are very helpful and friendly. My dad was well looked after. Exceptional Care at Home celebrated my dad's birthday with cake and balloons. It was a very nice gesture. Exceptional Care at Home staff are fully qualified and well trained. They were also so respectful every

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 4.816 for Exceptional Care at Home (Hertfordshire) is calculated as follows: ( (185 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 217 Ratings = 4.816

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Exceptional Care at Home (Hertfordshire) is based on 36 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
  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.
