Mum has settled in so well. The staff know her routines already, and she loves the garden.

Reply drafted for you

Thank you, it means a lot to the team. We will pass this on to everyone on her floor, and the garden is hers whenever she likes.

Every screen shows example data

Reviews is one inbox for every public review of your home, graded by sentiment, with the themes that come up most often and a drafted reply waiting on each unanswered one. It also flags a review that looks like a breach of the platform's rules and shows the removal route for that platform.

It does not reply without you. Every reply is yours to edit and approve, and only Google can be posted from bamboo. For the other platforms it gives you the text and tells you where to paste it.

    Replies drafted, in your voice

    Every unanswered review gets a drafted reply that thanks the family, answers the point and sounds like you. Edit it, approve it, and bamboo posts it to Google or hands you the text for the others.

    Breaches flagged, with the route to remove them

    A review that breaks a platform's own rules, such as one from a person who was never a client, is flagged, with the exact route each platform gives for reporting it.

    • The platform's policy, not a guess
    • The reporting route for each of the seven platforms
    • Negative patterns passed to the reputation audit

Why it matters

What reviews changes.

Families read the replies

A calm, specific reply to a hard review tells the next family more about your home than ten five-star ratings.

Answered soonest is answered best

A reply within days reads as care. A reply within months reads as damage control.

Reviews will feed the score

Reviews are a quarter of the Presence Score once bamboo measures them. Replying now is the cheapest climb there is.

Questions

The ones that get asked.

Which platforms does it read?

Google Business Profile, carehome.co.uk, Trustpilot, Facebook, the NHS website, Autumna and Working Feedback.

Does bamboo post the reply for me?

On Google, yes, once you connect your Google Business Profile in Connections. For the other platforms bamboo drafts the reply and shows you where to post it.

Will it ever reply without my say-so?

No. Every reply is approved by you first.
