Review from J A (Client) published on 3 September 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The care I receive is two visits each day to ensure that my medication is taken correctly as this can affect my health if it is not taken in the correct dosages and at the correct times. This normally happens without too many problems but there have been occasions where appointments have been missed
or my regular carer has not been available.

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 4.000 for Kensington Home Care is calculated as follows: ( (1 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 5 Ratings = 4
  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, 0.5 Points for the second and third Positive Reviews, 0.25 Points for each of the next two Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.05, 7th = 0.05, 8th = 0.05, 9th = 0.05, 10th = 0.05, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Kensington Home Care is based on 1 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 = 3
