Review from T M (Daughter of Client) published on 26 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been so very happy with the care, compassion and attention provided by the manager and the carer, with both the overall care oversight/management as well as the day-to-day handling of my dad.


The manager ensures that we are always fully informed of and involved with my dad's care, and the

carer has been fantastic with managing my dad's personal needs with a gentleness that brings us comfort.


We cannot thank you enough for all your support - I would not hesitate to recommend your services.

The manager has been very responsive and flexible around our needs - and has a very good understanding of how to deal with people with dementia. There has been some variation between different carers, but the service provided has been what my father needs at this time regarding his personal hygiene.

Review from F Y (Wife of Client) published on 27 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
We are happy with the care given by the care workers. Health and safety is observed. Cleaned the kitchen fine.
There were a couple of times that the care worker did not arrive on time. This caused problems for both care worker and the patient, because the patient was on his own and could not get to
the door easily.
And once a couple of small plates that were part of a set were broken while emptying the dishwasher.
Admin work is not satisfactory. A few times I received invoices for other people. After I notified them, I did not receive my own invoices. I'm not sure if our invoices have gone to others or not. This is a serious issue of breaking the code of confidentiality.

Use their services to take my daughter into the community. The staff are very pleasant and have the correct training for my daughter's condition. I feel able to talk to them about any problems and sort them out. They cannot do enough to ensure my daughter is happy and well looked after. I feel I can
relax knowing the staff can deal with anything that should occur whilst she is with them.

I telephoned the manager directly and he came to meet my mum and dad. He was on time and professional. He's been over to my dad's house twice now to give him a shower, and he's always been polite, friendly, and punctual. I would recommend the manager. Thanks.

The carer is consistent, so Mum is not confused by different people. They are always polite, professional, caring and punctual. They know exactly what needs to be done, do it respectfully and don't leave until Mum is comfortable.

My family are very happy with the service we are getting we feel they are very supportive of my sister-in-law who is the main carer. They have been so supportive, polite, caring and kind. They go beyond the lines of duty to provide care. The service has been more than fantastic! I would highly recommend.

Having no experience of care, I was truly reassured by the level of service the manager and his team have been providing to my mother. They have been professional, compassionate, transparent and dedicated.
My mother looks forward to their visits and we as a family highly recommend them.

A2Z has been looking after Mum since May 2022. The family is more than happy with the service provided and would gladly recommend A2Z to anyone seeking help with an elderly relative. Our main concern was making sure that Mum took her daily meds and had someone popping in every day to check on her well-being.
The manager keeps a very careful eye on all of Mum's needs and will quickly get in touch with any concerns. I know Mum looks forward to her daily chats and morning cuppa with him!

Having experienced poor care from a previous supplier, A2Z Homecare has been a very positive change. They engage with my Mother and keep an eye on her cleanliness, well-being and alert me to any issues that need addressing. They spend the time that they're contracted to deliver and do not try to cut
corners. My Mother is very happy and I feel safe in the knowledge she is looked after very well, especially as I live abroad. My Aunt visited recently and told me how good she thought they were and she had only met them twice.

Our carer was always polite and was eager to fit in with our way of doing things. He always explained what he was asking us to do and would then do it our way. This type of listening kindness we felt was a very good way to deal with people. Added to this he was willing to help with minor tasks which
some may consider to be outside the scope of terms of normal service. We would be pleased to use his services again.

From our first meeting with the manager we have received exceptional care, consideration, an understanding and respect for my father's needs and our concern for him as his family, listening and understanding all the time, and with a very personal and hands-on, professional approach to caring for him.
The manager is completely dedicated to ensuring that his service promotes the best quality of life for his clients and shows the most kind and caring attitude to my father, and gives us the sense of trust in his service that is extremely hard to find. Thank you so much for coming into our lives at this time for my father.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.782)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.782) out of 10 for A2Z Homecare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.782 for A2Z Homecare is calculated as follows: ( (64 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 78 Ratings = 4.782
  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 A2Z Homecare is based on 12 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.

Job Title: Registered Manager Joined: 2021

I have worked in the adult care sector since 1998 when I left education. I started as a carer in elderly care for those living with dementia. Later I moved to younger adults with complex Epilepsy and learning disabilities, where I progressed through the ranks to become a manager.


I am always keen to learn about the service users needs that use our service and therefore undertake lots of ongoing training to update my skills.


I have previously completed my Level 5 in Leadership for Health and Social Care as well as lots of other qualifications.
