Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I hired Helping Hands to provide daily visits to my elderly mother in her own home, who is recovering from a fall and needs some help administering her medication. The biggest problem was overcoming her resistance to getting any help, but the team did a great job with that. As a result, I now have the
reassurance that she is seen everyday, is okay, is warm, has food, and anything else she needs.

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 4.867 for Helping Hands Home Care (Cosham) is calculated as follows: ( (27 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 30 Ratings = 4.867

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Helping Hands Home Care (Cosham) 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
