Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Patkay Care Services have been very helpful in dealing with my need for a carer each night and enabling me to settle comfortably in bed. In the morning I am able to get washed and dressed and am grateful for the carer cleaning up and bed making.

Review from S M (Daughter-in-law of Client) published on 24 August 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother-in-law required care at short notice and I found Patkay Care Services to be incredibly professional and efficient at providing this care. They responded to the changes in the care requirements very quickly and without any hustle. They treated my mother as a priority and were very focused on
the quality of her care. The carers themselves were fantastic and I could not ask for anything more than what they have delivered, I could go to work without worrying. They took a genuine interest in my mother-in-law and would always spend extra time sitting and chatting with her once all her care needs had been met. The choice of carers couldn't have been better and my mother-in-law informed me that she genuinely felt valued and treated with respect. I would not hesitate in recommending them to friends and family and would be very happy to use them again in the future. Keep up the good work Patkay Care Services team.
Reply from Patience Karuwa, Manager at Patkay Care Services

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.819) out of 10 for Patkay Care Services is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.819 for Patkay Care Services is calculated as follows: ( (79 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 94 Ratings = 4.819
  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 Patkay Care Services is based on 15 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.

Patience Karuwa

Job Title: Services Manager Joined: 2014

My name is Patience Karuwa and I'm the Founder of Patkay care services since 2014. I'm from a mental health nurse background for the past 11yrs working in the national health services. During my career within NHS, I worked in the medium forensic services for 7 years I have gained valuable skills in working within the wider Multidisciplinary teams. Also, I have worked within mental health community services with older people specialising in dementia care. Having the opportunity to work with older people in the community I felt the motivation of making a difference in people's life-supporting them in their own homes and improving their quality of life providing so they can be home for as long as they want and avoid the admission into hospital and nursing homes. therefore I thought establishing this company was the stepping stone to supporting those in need.
