Right at Home Portsmouth delivers high-quality home care to older people and adults living with a disability to help them remain independent in their own homes, and provide peace of mind for their families - whether it be just a little help that's needed around the house, some companionship, a meal to be prepared, or perhaps help with bathing or dressing.

Right at Home Portsmouth carefully select CareGivers for their compassion and empathy, taking on people with the most caring nature and then training them to the highest standards.

Continuity of care is extremely important through unrushed, minimum one hour visits built around a client’s individual needs. CareGivers are introduced to each client, and meaningful and lasting relationships are as important as performing the necessary tasks.

I contacted Right at Home after a recommendation from someone. We had social care looking after Dad and were not happy at all with some of the service's. Since Right at Home came Dad is so much better, they really understand his needs and is always perfectly matched to his carers, he can be a handful.
They always go above and beyond and I am always well informed if I need to know anything. We couldn't do with out them now. Emma has been brilliant with managing his care team.

I was very impressed by Right at Home. The local organization was efficient, kind, considerate and responsive to my mother's needs and concerns. Moreover the two women who moved into my mother's house while they were needed could not have been nicer and competent. It was very reassuring to know that
my mother was safe and well cared for.

The staff at Right at Home (Portsmouth) have been kind, patient and very caring towards Mum. It has been great to see mum strike up positive relationships with several of the carers who have visited over the last few months. This has helped keep mum going over what has been a difficult period transitioning
from living by herself in a flat towards full time care. We would definitely recommend their services.

My mum was determined she didn't want and or need a carer, but once she agreed to trial Right at Home, she changed her mind. She now has her carer in every day which she says is the highlight of her day. She sees her carer as a friend and would have them in 24/7 if she could.
From my point of view,
having Right at Home going in every day has given me respite to be able to do my job within the NHS without having the extra stress of the basic needs for my mum.
I can contact the team at any time and nothing is ever a problem. They even came into hospital to see my mum when she was poorly.
As an NHS worker, I have recommended Right at Home to many other people as I find them caring, compassionate, and respectful of my mum's needs and wishes.
My mum and I would not be without her carer and the team at Right at Home.

Reply from Niamh Morgan, Marketing and Recruitment coordinator at Right at Home (Portsmouth)

Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We're so glad to hear how much your mum values her carer and that we've been able to support you as well. Knowing we've made a difference in both your lives is why we do what we do. Thank you for recommending us; it truly means a lot.

I cannot recommend Right at Home enough. My only regret is that we didn't organise their services earlier. They gave my dad, in his final months, such friendship and laughs, they also improved his quality of life immeasurably. His carers were always interested in him and went over and above in the care
they gave him. Thank you all.

Right from the start in 2020, the attention to person-centred care was there for our loved one and her husband. It was a very challenging time with the diagnosis of Frontal Temporal Dementia in January 2020 and then Covid and Lockdowns.
We had four main carers, who have all been there for our loved
one and husband and also other dedicated carers along the way. Sadly our loved one passed in March this year, she couldn’t have received better care in the last 4 years. Very grateful for all that you do. Thank you.

Right at Home (Portsmouth) have been excellent. All of the carers have been lovely and kind. They always arrive on time and are extremely professional. We always know who is coming and a detailed audit of each visit is available to read via the app. They are also very responsive, adding in additional
visits at very short notice. It's been very reassuring to know that Mum is now getting the care she needs and I'm so pleased we chose them.

I was apprehensive about the care for my brother as he needed companionship rather than physical care. After much consideration, I chose Right at Home and it was the best decision. My brother was in great spirits when I returned after a fortnight and I couldn't have wished for anything better. The choice
of carers was perfect.

Very, very good - friendly, helpful, versatile and reliable. I feel comfortable with personal care, which is a lovely surprise because I didn't think I would. My carers are lovely and support me with anything that needs doing. Just what I need, I can't think of anything that could be better or improved.

After doing a lot of research into finding the right people to care for mum, Right at Home ticked all my boxes. Right at Home have been looking after mum for a couple of months now and I know I have chosen the right people, the people who work in the office and the carers are all kind, compassionate
and experienced people. The position I am in is all new to me and a challenge and as an only sibling very emotional, Right at Home have been supportive and very patient with all my questions. Sadly mum has got dementia and having home care was a huge change for her, very reluctant at first but has settled down really well with her current carers, who give her 100% quality loving care. I've started with a few visits with the intention of building on this, think they call this baby steps! Recently I was lucky to have a week away and I asked for some ad-hoc home care during this period and that was one of my tick in the boxes. I feel very blessed to have found Right at Home, a huge thank you to all.

My mother has received excellent daily care from Right at Home staff for the past six months. Staff are very caring, professional and astute to my mother's changing needs. The effort they have made to help my mother with the progression of her dementia has been creative and empathetic. Additionally,
staff have demonstrated initiative and an amazing amount of empathy. The emotional relief to myself has been immense, knowing that a caring and experienced team is looking after my mother (my professional background is nursing so I have a keen eye for quality care). Thank you zillions, one and all.

We have been using Right at Home (Portsmouth) for a number of years now for my grandpa, it's been an absolute blessing finding them. We had previously used an alternative care provider but since finding Right at Home and the team there really isn't any comparison between the two. It's night and day!
If
you want someone to look after your loved ones when they are no longer able to do it themselves then Right at Home are the company to contact. Outstanding service and I can honestly say they go above and beyond.
They look after your family as if they were looking after their own. All staff treated my grandpa with care and compassion.
Unfortunately, my grandpa has now gone into a care home but Right at Home made that transition so easy and stress-free. They have even stayed in contact since his move just to check on his wellbeing, can't recommend them enough!

Having worked for over 30 years in the aerospace industry, I decided it was time for a change and to aim for a better quality of life for not just me and my family but those in the community around us.


Becoming a Right at Home owner has helped me to achieve just that. The important things in life for me are family and faith. I am married to Madeline and we have been blessed with four daughters and two grandsons. I am an active member of my local church and help with different ministries, including visiting the sick, elderly and vulnerable in their homes and providing transport when required. I also coordinate our church’s contributions to the local foodbank.


I have a passion for helping people particularly the most vulnerable in our society. Right at Home Portsmouth has given me the opportunity to transform my compassion for caring into my daily job as well as creating the space in my life for more active voluntary activity within the local community.


Madeline, and I look forward to helping you, and we are always available, be it for a chat or for immediate assistance.

I have been married to my husband Joe for 36 years and we have been blessed with four wonderful daughters: Ciara, Rachel, Emma and Niamh. We also have two lively grandsons named Fionn (Finn) and Conan. We are all the proud owners of our flat-coated retriever ‘Alphie’ who is keeps us all on our toes! Part time I also teach in a wonderful school and work mainly with 7 and 8 year old children.


My professional qualifications include:


A NVQ Diploma Level 3
Primary teaching
Level 5 qualification in Health and Social Care.


In terms of my personality I am caring, hard working, a good listener, loyal and have a good sense of humour. When I give care, it is crucial for me to make my clients feel happy and secure. The ultimate reward is knowing that I have made a difference (even if a small one) to their lives.
