I contacted 'GoodOaks' homecare as I was looking for a full-time live-in carer for my elderly mother. I have been very happy with the service from the manager, and the support given to us at what has been an extremely stressful period. From first contact until placement took just over 2 weeks. I was
sent different profiles of potential carers and the one we chose has now been with us for nearly 2 weeks. The carer not only looks after my mother’s personal needs but also cooks, cleans, does the washing, takes her out and spends a lot of time interacting with her when she’s feeling lonely. She is amazing!
The whole process has been very easy and efficient with great care being taken to find a carer matching the specified requirements. I would not hesitate to recommend 'GoodOaks'

We started using 'GoodOaks' following a disappointing experience with another care provider. Since using 'GoodOaks' two months ago for daily visits to Dad, my own anxiety levels have decreased significantly due to the good quality he now receives. I trust them completely to support Dad with his daily
medication requirements and his personal care. The carers prepare his breakfast and tea daily and help him getting dressed and with washing. They even help with household chores! Dad not only looks better in himself but enjoys his visits. I am very pleased with the whole package provided by 'GoodOaks' and am happy to recommend them to anyone thinking of carers for their family.

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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.986 for GoodOaks Homecare - Bedford is calculated as follows: ( (136 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 138 Ratings = 4.986

  • b) 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 GoodOaks Homecare - Bedford is based on 23 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

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
