The standard of care - especially during recent very difficult circumstances - has always been exceptionally good. Everyone involved has been very cooperative and the management team have always gone well beyond any duty of care requirements. Visiting medical professionals - GPs and nurses - have all
been extremely complimentary and reassuring about the standard of care being administered by the caregivers. The team of caregivers are lead by a dedicated manager who pays great attention to details and ensures that her team do the same. This level of exceptional is very reassuring to our family.

Reply from Tracey Murtagh, Managing Director at Right at Home (Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire)

Right at Home were brilliant from the start when one of my relatives required extra help with daily tasks and preparing meals. They kept me fully informed of any issues and were always ready with advice, which was really helpful. During the last months of care, they helped look after my relative with
respect, always putting her needs first and ensuring that she was comfortable and happy during their visits. I would thoroughly recommend Right at Home to anyone that requires care, they were professional and provided an excellent service which took all the anxiety away which enabled my relative to remain in her own home, where she felt safe and cared for.

We could not have made a better choice and I cannot sing their praises loudly enough. Right at Home provided excellent care for mum from July 2021 to her passing away in December 2021. They not only cared for mum but also supported my father who was at home with mum. The management team were thorough
in their assessment and put everything in place for mum to be able to return home from respite care. The caregivers were always kind, friendly, and respectful. They managed mum's day-to-day personal care and medication well and handled mum's changing needs as her health declined with great flexibility and always went the extra mile when required. In mum's last week of life, their support for the whole family was outstanding. I can honestly say that we could not have done it without them. Three of the lovely caregivers even came to mum's funeral.

Right at Home provided care for my mother for over 3 years until her death, replacing her previous care agency, with who we were not happy. The manager and her team were great. The agency is very well run. The manager is very thorough and committed in all areas, in choosing and managing staff, instigating
rigid protocol during the pandemic etc. The carers were both professional and friendly, diligent in reporting any problems to the doctor or calling the hospital if necessary and carrying out their duties. They would also do a bit of cleaning etc if they had spare time. My mother often commented that she viewed them as friends, not professionals. Their thoroughness made my siblings lives, and mine, a lot easier. We were very happy all round.

On behalf of Right and Home and all staff, it was an absolute pleasure that we had the privilege to have had the opportunity to care for your mother, she became an extended member of our Right at Home family and will be greatly missed by us all. Thank you for choosing Right at Home to care for her for the last three years of her life.
From all the team at Right at Home.

We could not have asked for better carers for the last 2 years of my mother's life. The manager and her team were kind, respectful, efficient, always on time and went above and beyond in what they did for her. They were also very supportive of her family. Mum always said they were friends, not carers.
We are so grateful that they enabled us to keep Mum at home until she died which was so important to her.

I required homecare to be put in place in order for my mum to be able to return home after a period of convalescent following a fall. I contacted the local Right at Home Office who promptly arranged a meeting to assess our requirements and a care package was put in place at short notice. The communication
and advice provided by the management team was excellent and the daily help and support provided by the lovely caregivers have allowed Mum to regain her independence once again. The team have provided a friendly, reliable and caring service and now we have found them we will definitely continue to use their services.

The client's situation changed speedily and I was impressed with the speed with which changes were made to her care in terms of increased support. I was also grateful for the concern shown regarding her health and the willingness of the care manager to liaise on the client's behalf with other agencies
to achieve a good outcome. I was also impressed with the training given to carers in respect of the new equipment installed.

We recently appointed Right at Home to provide daily care visits for my father and we’ve been very happy with the friendly, sensitive and professional service given so far. The daily visits have provided reassurance for not only my father but also my sister and I, that experienced caregivers are keeping
a professional eye on his condition and giving him companionship every day.

No one wants to admit they need help and support so finding a care company that understood we needed to take things very slowly. Starting with just a couple of well-being visits, that weren't too intrusive, was the key to a longer-term plan, should my Dad need more help in the future. His carers appear
to be doing that as Dad says they are very friendly and it's nice to have a chat with someone. For me, it's great to know there are an extra pair of eyes keeping an eye on my Dad that can help assess the situation and they let me know if there is anything they think I should be aware of.

I have found this care provider very helpful and adaptable to different needs.
They have been caring for our mother for around 2 years now and have been very good at keeping things going and meeting her needs.
The manager is very knowledgeable and her firm but fair approach is just what is needed
at times.
We can only thank you for all your efforts and continuing care.

My mum had carers from Right at Home for just over a year. They were all so friendly and eager to help Mum in any way they could. The carers were patient and kind, even when Mum was being difficult, they knew how to get the best out of her. They were encouraging to Mum and me and would go the extra
mile. Mum had a live-in carer for the last 7 months who would be supported by an hourly carer for personal care, which worked very well. In Mum’s last hours, the hourly carer stayed on beyond her shift to not only help look after Mum but to support me and the live-in carer in what was a very difficult time. Whenever I had the need to speak to the office, the manager and other staff were always very helpful and made sure I was happy with the care Mum was receiving. They would take flowers or little surprises into Mum if she seemed a bit low and made a fuss of her on her birthday and Christmas. My husband now has Right at Home to look after his parents because I had such a positive experience with them.

Right at Home has thus far provided an excellent standard of care that has not only improved my father's health and welfare but is also empowering him to gain more confidence in himself during a difficult decline. They have also been very supportive and on-the-ball with all of all my father's health
needs, whether that's organizing all the logistics of his Covid vaccine, adjusting the care plan to meet emerging needs, or highlighting areas around the home that could be adapted to make him more comfortable and safe. Even better, they got him playing chess within a week. They are encouraging him, and it shows in our phone calls, where he is more confident and chatty than he's ever been, talking about the activities he's done. Right at Home are prompt and thorough with updates, and a pleasure to speak with. I am very glad Right at Home are involved, and relieved that my father's mood is much improved due to the excellent care he has been receiving.

Hello, and thanks for taking the time to read my profile.


I am the proud Owner/Director of Right at Home Hemel Hempstead, an award-winning quality Homecare provider, loved by people who we are honoured to serve.


By background, I was an offshore structural consultant in the oil & gas industry, and although proud of my engineering career, I was always in pursuit of something more meaningful for my heart and soul. I wanted to dedicate all my energy and passion to bringing a smile to someone’s face or reducing their pain.


Noticing my own parents growing older and gradually beginning to require help was also a contributing factor to my decision to begin my homecare journey. Most recently, seeing my dad in a hospital bed and accompanying him on his way to a planned surgery was quite heartbreaking.


Multiple times, with 2024 being the most recent time, we have been awarded as the “Top 20 Home Care Providers East of England 2024” by Homecare.co.uk, which is a testimony to the exceptional quality of the care delivered by the kind souls in my team who have dedicated their lives helping others.


We constantly strive to go the extra mile and change lives on a daily basis, as evidenced by our outstanding 10/10 customer review rating on Homecare.co.uk.


My team and I take great pride in improving the quality of life for our clients and their families by helping our clients maintain their independence and enjoy a fulfilled life, tailored to their needs, in the comfort of their own homes.


Right at Home is an international provider of quality home care. We offer everything from personal care such as bathing, toileting, social visits, companionship, shopping and cleaning and as such offer a cost-effective alternative to residential care.


I genuinely feel blessed and privileged to work in the care industry, supporting a growing number of elderly and vulnerable adults, and having a positive impact on our local community.


To us, quality care is about going the extra mile - just as we would for our own loved ones.


If you have any questions about homecare and support for your loved one and would like to have a friendly chat, please feel free to get in touch with me or any member of our lovely office team.


Kind regards,
Hesam Resalaty

"I came into care by chance, I was a domestic assistant working in a local hospital but spent most of my time talking to patients, getting them cups of tea whilst they waiting for transportation to go home, then one of the nurses mentioned I’d make a good carer, and that was it, I started in a local nursing home, working nights and now some 30 years on I can honestly say, I love my job with a passion!


I have been a Registered Manager for residential care and domiciliary care.


Having cared for and supported people living with Dementia I became a Dementia Friend and volunteer with the Alzheimer’s Society. I also have Level 5 in Lead & Manage Dementia Care.

We at Right at Home, Hemel Hempstead aim to make wishes come true, and have so far made so many wishes come true for our many wonderful clients this to me is such a humbling experience and why I look forward to each and every day.
