The carers are kind and caring. They are very considerate of my nana's thoughts and feelings. They visit twice daily and nothing is ever an issue. They treat her with dignity and respect and we feel like they are now part of the family.

Review from Kathleen L (Client) published on 24 December 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I have felt better since my carers have attended to my needs, including trying to get me to eat, and care for me, sometimes over the odds. They cannot do enough for me. The new started is very obliging and eager to learn. She likes her job. I feel for the staff as they could go with transport, buses
don't always come on time and it can be annoying.

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 4.917 for Vanguards Healthcare Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.917
  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 Vanguards Healthcare 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.
