  • Right at Home (Preston & South Ribble), Preston
Right at Home (Preston) is a branch of one of the world's most trusted care companies.

Through a global network of more than 250 locally owned and operated offices carers help thousands of people every day to continue living happily and independently in their own homes.

Carefully trained and friendly carers provide help with a wide range of tasks including housework, shopping, cooking meals, washing and dressing and physical assistance.

Carers also place great emphasis on providing emotional support too. Something as small as sharing a cup of tea and having a chat, or laughing at a joke, can make a huge difference to the health and well-being of the person being cared for.

The service is COMPLETELY FLEXIBLE and can be adjusted as needs change. Provides care on a short-term or long-term basis, ranging from a daily visit to 24/7, managed live-in care.

As a family, we had to turn to using carers for Nan almost overnight due to a change in circumstances. After understandable initial readjustment, we now can't imagine her being as content, confident and safe without their help. Daily visits allow Nan to still feel independence and she describes her
carers as 'lovely'. Individual carers might flag or query something if necessary (which I think is really important) and the office staff are very friendly, helpful and professional should we ever need to contact them. We genuinely appreciate them being part of how our family now operates regarding the care, wellbeing and happiness of our Nan.

Thank you so much for your review of our services. It means so much to us to hear your views. We are delighted to hear that your nan is happy with our services. Thank you.

The Right at Home team became friends as well as mum's carers she looked forward to them visiting twice a day for two and a half years and having banter with her the family can’t thank them enough and would definitely recommend them to anyone who needed a carer.

Right at Home cared for my mother for over five years. Mum looked forward to the daily visits from the ever-smiling Caregivers, they soon became friends. All delivered professional care and took time to make sure every need was met.


I would not hesitate to recommend Right at Home - they are trustworthy,

reliable, professional, extremely caring and there is always ‘on call’ available to give advice if needed during out-of-office hours.

Very good and reliable service with highly trained carers who look after and care for their patients.
The company provides a round the clock service and advises if there is a change in the routine and discusses this with their clients.

Right at Home looked after our mum for over fourteen months commencing just before the pandemic last year.
Care was provided by a number of different staff throughout the day plus a night watch. All staff were excellent, caring and compassionate without exception and mum came to see them as friends
with whom she could share a wholesome conversation as well as being cared for.
Getting outside help in to look after a loved one is one of the hardest decisions you'll ever make. As a family, we were reluctant at the outset, but the standard of love and care we received was nothing short of exemplary. We never had a moment's concern throughout and can now live our lives knowing that we did our absolute best for Mum in her final year.
Thank you to everyone at Right at Home Preston - too many to mention individually, but you know who you are.

Thank you Mark and family for your review, it was a pleasure getting to know your mum and a privilege to be involved in her care and support and to know we were able to provide peace of mind for you as well.

My dad needed domiciliary care before Covid arrived. We were very happy and content with the care provided by Right at Home. They took great care to ensure that Dad had accurately timed visits by the same carer, so they got to know each other very well. She became a friend to my dad. Since March, I'm
afraid his health deteriorated and a period in hospital was required, followed by admission to a residential care home. He still talks about her though and I know he misses her company. If and when dad is able to return home, we wouldn't contemplate using another care provider - Right at Home would be our only choice.
Thank you for all you did for dad.

Reply from Karen Myres, Managing Director at Right at Home (Preston & South Ribble)

Thank you for your review of our service. I have passed your kind words on to the caregiver who visited your dad and we wish him all the best.

Thank goodness we chose Right at Home (Preston) for my mum. The staff are caring and supportive and treated my mum with dignity and compassion. Nothing was too much trouble and they responded quickly to her changing needs to help the family. They always put her first and communication with us was excellent.
The carers do such a wonderful job and we would have been struggling without them. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Right at Home.

My mother, aged 89, has been a client of Right at Home for almost 3-years. Reviews have been conducted annually, and now since covid19 hit, every month. All my mother's needs are addressed and met, all is documented. Care adjusted and care plans modified accordingly. The carer involved, assist to shower
and dress 3x a week. All communication is held in a folder kept with my mother, so all carers are aware of her condition and needs. Mum is treated with dignity at all times, and I am consulted as Mums main carer.

Thank you to all at Right at Home Preston and South Ribble. Without the hard work and dedication from you all, a particular mention to who looked after my sister in law on the night watch, she did go above and beyond. My sister in law wanted to stay in her own home this wish was granted, sadly on the
21st March 2020 she passed away.

Even though dad had dementia he came to rely on the carers and saw them as friends. He couldn't remember a lot of things but he knew someone would call in on him each day and felt safe.
A special thanks to the carer for calling back to check on dad on the day he was taken into hospital.

The care provided by Right at Home over the past few years has been simply amazing. Mum and dad could not have enjoyed living in their own home until now without the quality of care you provided. You always helped us with last minute changes and dealt with events as they unfolded. Right at Home gave
our family massive comfort during some trying times, especially with none of us living in Preston. The dedication, diligence, compassion, patience and professionalism of mum and dad’s carers has been staggering. Your team of carers kept their humour and patience, no matter what was happening. You are all special people. We have sung the praises of Right at Home to Social Services teams in Preston. When we explained the level of care that mum and dad had received, they were absolutely amazed. We have no hesitation in recommending Right at Home to anyone who is looking for a fantastic team of carers, supported by an efficient, adaptable and friendly management team. Thanks for everything.

Would have been a higher review if they had put my mother's hearing aid in every day.

Thank you for your feedback, we are sorry to hear that there were some issues with your mother's hearing aid. We know how important this is to enable good communication and will remind our CareGivers to check and encourage people to use their hearing aids and other equipment as needed.
