Google reviews

Build trust with honest reviews and careful replies

When Due Care’s Google Business Profile is verified, this page can help the team ask for genuine reviews, respond professionally, and protect participant privacy while improving local visibility across Melbourne and Melbourne’s west.

Launch-ready plan

How Due Care should ask for Google reviews

Reviews should be real, voluntary and connected to a genuine service experience. The aim is not to chase perfect ratings; the aim is to show families, participants and referrers that Due Care listens, communicates and improves.

Privacy first: never mention a person’s disability, NDIS plan, address, health information, incident, complaint or private support details in a public review reply.
Simple process

Review request workflow

A safe process helps the team request feedback without pressure and without privacy mistakes.

1

Choose the right moment

Ask after a positive support milestone, successful referral, helpful OT pathway, or resolved service enquiry.

2

Send one polite request

Use SMS or email with a short message. Make it clear that reviews are optional and honest feedback is welcome.

3

Respond carefully

Thank the person without confirming they are a participant or describing any private service information.

4

Use feedback to improve

Track themes from reviews, complaints and compliments so Due Care can improve service quality.

Safe wording the team can use

Local reputation

What improves trust on Google

Google visibility is helped by consistent business details, service-area pages, helpful content, real photos, reviews, and quick responses to enquiries.

Correct contact details

Phone, email, office hours, operation hours, ABN and service areas should match the website.

Service photos

Use approved, non-identifying photos or branded graphics. Never upload participant images without written consent.

Fresh updates

Post NDIS updates, referral guidance, worker education and OT information regularly.

Helpful blog content

Write clear articles that answer real questions from families, support coordinators and workers.

Service-area pages

Keep Melbourne, Melton South and surrounding service-area pages useful and not thin.

Respectful replies

Every reply should sound calm, professional and privacy-safe.
