Review from C B (Daughter of Client) published on 2 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our Mum needed some care after a recent hospital stay and we were given the services from Ringstead Healthcare. Having never needed this before it was all a bit bewildering but we soon got the hang of who was who and who did what! Mum was reluctant at first to have someone looking after her personal
care but very quickly became very fond of a few of the carers that came and quite honestly didn't have a problem with any of them. Mum has hearing issues and the carers did their best to help her in a polite and dignified way. We had a point of contact who was easy to get hold of and always super helpful with anything we needed. Mum is moving home soon and is quite sad that she can't take her carers with her! She only hopes that her new carers are just as lovely.

Thank you for taking the time to review our care services. It was a genuine pleasure for everyone at Ringstead Healthcare to care for your mum. Her warmth and positive response to our team made each day enjoyable, and our carers truly looked forward to their time with her. We wish her all the very best, and we deeply appreciate your kind words. They are incredibly motivating and affirm the value of the work we do.

Ringstead Agency gave my father very good care. They were efficient, friendly, caring and patient, especially with his personal care. I would not hesitate to recommend them. They kept the house clean and tidy, sorted his laundry and took him out in the garden in his wheelchair when the weather got warmer.

Ringstead has been amazing in the two years I have been with them. It's hard when you go from no care but the transition was made so easy and comfortable by management. Every carer I have had has been fantastic - they remember my family and what's been happening, my hobbies and interests. It always
feels like I am being cared for by friends and family. I couldn't tell you who my favourite carer is because they are all good in their own ways. There has never been a time I was uncomfortable with my care.

The care given to my Mum after she came home from hospital for the 12 hours with these carers is amazing and nothing is too much trouble for any of them. They are there for all her needs and at 91 and house bound they comfort her also when she is in a lot of pain and try to encourage her to do things,
and she loves all of them. They are angels to her. Thank you, this team is highly recommended.

Mum is generally happy with her care. She has taken a while to adapt to her circumstances as she is normally very independent. My sister would like more prepared meals given to mum opposed to crackers etc but other than this the carers are very bice and happy to accommodate mum in all areas.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
Whilst the needs of the client appear complex we have been with this care company for some time now, however I believe the constant revolving door of staff and the length of time spent on shadowing is not done appropriately. My mother has said that at times her wishes are not respected. This is a private
family home. Some staff seem quite inexperienced arriving to meet my mother once and then appearing as her main carer with shadowing only covering one day. However all staff do try very hard to meet my mother's needs and are pleasant.

We have been having carers since May to help my husband get up in the morning, washing and helping to get dressed.
They are always happy and my husband enjoys their happy conversations.
They all work hard to give a high standard of support to both of us.

Very friendly and caring people, they try really hard to accommodate everyone’s schedules and needs and I’m really happy to have them as my caregivers, they stick to a scheduled time each day so you always know when they are coming and they work really hard to be on time.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.687)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.687) out of 10 for Ringstead Healthcare Ltd 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 19 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 4.687 for Ringstead Healthcare Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (86 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 115 Ratings = 4.687
  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 Ringstead Healthcare Ltd is based on 19 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.
