Review from Chris K (Daughter of Client) published on 7 October 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the very beginning we had the best possible experience with Higher Healthcare. They can be reached by phone day and night, including weekends - we contacted them on a Saturday. We were put in touch with the Director of Care, who lived up to his title, being very caring and dedicated. He gave us
important advice to help us care for our father in the interim, and worked extremely hard to put carers in place speedily. The carers were experienced and skilled, dedicated to their profession, thorough and extremely kind to both our parents. They engendered confidence and respect from the outset. We are very thankful to all at Higher Healthcare for their help in our time of need.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I've had live-in care provided by Higher Healthcare for a few months now. Having recently had bad experiences with other companies I was apprehensive at first, however, Higher Healthcare were very reassuring and stressed to me that they would find the right carer and provide me with the appropriate
support. The managers visited me at home, really listened and understood what I needed.
Nothing has been too much bother and they are always readily contactable with any queries or concerns. I get on so well with my two carers and both are very competent, providing safe and effective care. I'm happier and less stressed than I've felt in quite some time.

The manager and another member of staff in particular are very professional. They spent time with us to discuss our needs, the type of person required and the times and days required.
They checked our safety plans in place and how the carer they put in place would help my dad.
They have supplied
the perfect afternoon carer for our 96-year-old dad.
They have respected our wishes and my dad is very happy.

Review from Ted S (Son of Client) published on 10 July 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Following my centenarian mother's fall and surgery for a broken hip it became sine qua non that further round-the-clock care had become an imperative. My mother's needs had altered irrevocably as it was now clear she would not be able to walk again and although she already had daytime carers I needed
to hurriedly find a carer agency to provide overnight cover at short notice. Fortunately, Higher Healthcare was able to fill the breach and everything was arranged post haste.
Higher Healthcare introduced a young carer who immediately formed a rapport with my mother and having observed their initial encounter I had a quick sense this person was most suitable. As it has turned out the carer has shown herself to be highly competent and invested in my mother's wellbeing. My brother and I are very grateful to Higher Healthcare for their exemplary service and to the carer for her dedication to looking after my elderly mother.

Higher Healthcare has proven very diligent and helpful in providing daily in-house care for my elderly mother.
They have taken great pains to try and match the carers with my mum, taking into account her various needs and requirements.
Also, they are readily contactable at any time of the day or
night for any queries or additional assistance the family may require.
The company fully engages with the family from the outset to provide a very professional level of care.
All in all, the system is working well, and I believe that my mum enjoys the company and assistance of the carers, and we have certainly seen a marked improvement in her demeanour since the care plan was instigated approximately 3 weeks ago.
I would highly recommend Higher Healthcare to anyone seeking to provide care for a member of their family.
Thank you Higher Healthcare.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.433)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.433) out of 10 for Healthcare First is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 5 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 4.933 for Healthcare First is calculated as follows: ( (28 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 30 Ratings = 4.933
  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 Healthcare First is based on 5 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4.5
  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.
