I am 95 and I have had a carer for 8 years recently she needed some time off and I engaged someone to take her place. I was very impressed with all she did for me to keep me in my own home. I will need some help again in October and have already booked her assistance.
Reply from Lisa Knight, Quality Manager at Private Homecare Kent Ltd

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Private Homecare Kent provided care services to an elderly lady friend of mine. They cared for her during the last two years of her life, during which her care needs gradually increased. They provided carers for four one-hour visits per day. Mornings to attend to her personal care, dressing, medication
and breakfast requirements. Lunch times when they cooked a meal for her, made hot drinks and ensured that she was toileted, and was left with plenty of fluids to drink. Teatime, providing more hot food and drinks and ensuring that she took her medication. Evening visits to get her ready for bed.
Private Homecare Kent also undertook domestic duties including laundry and housework etc.
The carers provided were all reliable and conscientious. They built a good friendly relationship with my friend and kept me advised of any problems that needed attending to.
I was very impressed with the company and had full confidence that my friend was safe and well looked after under their care.

Review from Jo D (Daughter of Client) published on 22 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team have been invaluable in caring for my father. They are kind, reliable and professional. My father's wishes were at all times respected and they looked after him so well. Because of the range of help they provided (keys being cut, delivering food, shopping, holding cash, picking up prescriptions
etc) my dad was able to stay in his own home for longer and the family had some respite from his care.


I will always be incredibly grateful to the Manager and the other ladies who supported our family. I would not hesitate to recommend this company. I do not believe anyone or any other company would/could provide the level of care these ladies provided.

The care that my mother received from this company was outstanding, to say the least. She was cared for with love, respect and tenderness for the last 9 months of her life. Our family could not have managed without these amazing people and will be forever in their debt.

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 5.000 for Private Homecare Kent Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (48 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 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 Private Homecare Kent Ltd is based on 8 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 = 4.8
  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.
