The team at Right at Home East Lancashire and Ribble Valley - and they are a team - have been providing care and support to my wife for a couple of years on a daily basis. Both she and I can not speak highly enough of this friendly, caring, professional, local and truly wonderful group of human beings
who provide tailored personal care and support to my wife at our home. They are reliable and go the extra mile every time without asking. The office team are supportive, approachable and proactive. The carers are without exception amazing, caring and loving in equal measure. We have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone else needing care and support. I know I can trust them with my wife's welfare and well-being.

A great service with caring, trustworthy and reliable staff. They've worked with us through issues brought about by my dad's condition with sensitivity and consideration. The office staff keep me up-to-date with any information I may need and are always friendly and helpful. I'd highly recommend them.

My help comes for two hours each Tuesday. She is punctual and polite and I appreciate all the things she does for me. I look forward to her visit and pleasant company and my house is clean and tidy, which I couldn't achieve myself.

I am very grateful to have been rushed from the hospital by my solicitor. I am now very fortunate to be cared for, in my own home, by Right at Home.
I fully agree with their ideals and standard of care, aiming to increase my independence, and soon I may be able to use my equipment and again for daily
showers.
I couldn't do this without the care if my great team of carers.

I cannot fault the staff at Right at Home. They are courteous, polite and willing to assist when there is an issue to resolve. On the odd occasion when a staff member is delayed they always inform my auntie which puts her at ease. She says it's like having a family member visiting and that the experience
we as a family required.

I contacted Right at Home in January to support my Mum who had been in hospital following a fall and subsequent hip replacement operation. We’ve been so delighted with the care and support provided (as has my Mum, most importantly) that she continues to have twice weekly visits for help with cleaning
and shopping.
As I live some distance away and can’t visit as often as I’d like, the staff at Right at Home provide Mum with practical help and a regular chat with a friendly face, and me with the peace of mind that my Mum has the support she needs.
All the carers have been friendly, helpful and kind with a ‘nothing too much trouble ‘ attitude.
I would recommend this service to anyone.

We called upon Right at Home (East Lancashire & Ribble Valley) in an emergency. The care agency that had been offering live-in-care for our Mum were failing to offer the most basic level of care and respect. How glorious it was then when two carers from Right at Home (East Lancashire & Ribble Valley)
arrived. They have offered my Mum the very best of herself, assisted in recent weeks by a third carer. The standard of provision has been faultless. The level of communication has been simply wonderful. We are truly conflicted by the recent need to transition into residential care but my Mum has made three more friends.

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Job Title: Managing Director

Joined: 2024

Following my own father's Alzheimer's diagnosis, and the realisation we needed support, I contacted my local Right at Home to see if they could provide the best possible care. I was so impressed by the way they supported my father, their commitment to providing high-quality homecare and the small team that was carefully matched to my father's preferences. This inspired me to open my first office in Calderdale. When the opportunity came along to open Right at Home East Lancashire and Ribble Valley, it was an easy decision and one that I did not hesitate to make, Today, I carry those same high values across to the clients that we care for. Making sure we make a difference and help promote independence & dignity.


I am extremely proud to have the opportunity to expand and take on new ownership of Right at Home East Lancashire and Ribble Valley. With a reputation for being one of the best homecare providers in the area, their commitment to making a difference and their community involvement, we are looking forward to strengthening our range of services and continuing our commitment to ensuring all our clients receive the best care possible!
