Review from Anne V (Wife of Client) published on 26 January 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband has been receiving a care service twice daily, 7 days/week, for many months, which involves encouraging him to get up in the morning; washing his back in the shower; applying creams to his back and groin and assisting him to dress and undress. Despite his initial discomfort about having
this type of intimate help, he has quickly accepted it, confident about the carers' professionalism. Also the process has been adapted along the way to suit his preferences and changing needs. The staff are trained and supported by a competent manager who is one of the regular carers at weekends. She is therefore also in regular contact with us. The service is flexible and able to accommodate occasional changes that we request. We are very satisfied with it.
Reply from Christine Odubanjo, Manager at BluCareThank you for your positive feedback.

We are pleased to hear that your husband is comfortable with the care provided and that our team's professionalism, flexibility, and consistency have met your expectations. Adapting care to individual needs and maintaining regular communication are priorities for us, and we are glad this has been reflected in your experience.

Thank you for your trust in our service.

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 BluCare is calculated as follows: ( (6 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 6 Ratings = 5
  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, 0.5 Points for the second and third Positive Reviews, 0.25 Points for each of the next two Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.05, 7th = 0.05, 8th = 0.05, 9th = 0.05, 10th = 0.05, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for BluCare is based on 1 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 = 3
  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.
