For home care

bamboo for home care providers.

A home care agency competes with every other agency a family finds when they type the town and the words home care. bamboo builds the ads for that search, hosts the page they land on, reads the reviews on Google and the NHS website, and ranks you each week against the agencies you name as rivals.

bamboo treats a home care provider as what it is: a CQC-registered service with a territory, not a building. Competitors are the agencies registered near you, not care homes. Ads are written for the searches families make when a parent needs help at home, and the landing page answers the question they are really asking, which is whether you can start this month.

What families look at

The signals that decide the shortlist.

  • The CQC rating

    Scored today in the Presence Score and read from the register, so a re-rating of a rival shows the week it happens.

  • Google reviews and the NHS website

    A family comparing agencies reads the reviews and looks for a recent reply. bamboo drafts one for every review you have not answered.

  • Whether you can start

    The landing page says what families ask first: the areas you cover and how soon you can begin.

  • Local coverage

    An award, a new office, a carer of the year. Swept weekly for you and for the agencies you confirmed.

Questions

Asked by home care.

Are competitors care homes or agencies?

Agencies. bamboo matches a home care provider with the home care services registered near it.

We cover several towns. Does one account work?

One registered service is one bamboo provider. A franchise or a group with several registered branches uses the group hub, where every branch is ranked and reported together.

Does bamboo help with recruitment?

No. bamboo is marketing to families. Recruitment advertising is a different job and it does not pretend to do it.
