Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The caregivers who have attended my husband since his discharge from hospital have been absolutely wonderful, they arrive on time, always so polite, caring, attentive and very professional. Their knowledge and expertise is very reassuring and the encouragement and joy they give to my husband at each
visit is amazing.

Firstcall 24/7 stepped in when our previous agency were unable to continue visits to my Dad. It has been a very smooth transition, the carers are kind and helpful and my Dad seems to be very happy with the arrangement. Thank you

Love my boys that look after me. They are all so hard working.I don't like it when they change around and love a good conversation about all sorts of things.They are all very interesting and enjoy learning about the culture and traditions. Am always happy to recommend the company.

All carers have been gentle and respectful towards the client, understanding his needs and helping in some difficult situations. It was a great relief to have their assistance at short notice in an emergency.

Wonderful carers I couldn't have asked for more they were so caring and supportive of my husband as soon as they came in he was so happy to see them and was always looking forward to their visit. Also they were a great support to me I dread to think how I would have coped without them. Thank you so
much

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
So impressed, it has been such a difficult time, obviously a hard time trusting people to look after your loved ones but the carers provided so much comfort and compassion. I am in the care sector myself and am really impressed with the communication, continuity and just level of genuine care they provided
for my dad.

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 4.882 for Firstcall 247 Gloucestershire is calculated as follows: ( (30 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 34 Ratings = 4.882
  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 Firstcall 247 Gloucestershire is based on 6 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 = 4.6

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