Right At Home (Oxford) have been helping to support my parents for over 2 years now. They come promptly at times we have requested. And even more importantly they have been flexible and adaptable when my parents have had health issues. Last year particularly my sisters and I were so grateful for their
support when my Dad had a series of falls. The co-ordinators have been amazing, and the care my parents have received from RAH has been proactive, and very professional throughout. Great service from everybody, all round!

Wonderful support from the whole team from the beginning of pastoral and nursing care at home right to the end. Everybody so kind and thoughtful throughout some challenging times. Very quick to respond to changes in care schedules, and to keep me informed of any concerns. Living at a distance we
were reassured by them keeping a close eye and being proactive when issues arose. We were very grateful for all their help.

Thank you for the lovely review, we had the pleasure looking after your family right to the end. It was an absolute pleasure getting to know you all and the carers were very fond of your family. They are greatly missed.

My sister and I would like to thank the Right at Home team for all the help over the last few years. It was very important for Dad that he could stay in his own home. That would not have been possible without the superb care and support provided by Right at Home. It far exceeded our expectations and
we will forever be grateful.

Reply from Lea Mason, Registered Manager at Right at Home (Oxford)

Thank you for the kind words, Your dad was a lovely kind gentleman and we all do miss him dearly. We all enjoyed our visits and chats with him, he will be missed by all and it was a pleasure to support him and to get to know the family.

If you are reading reviews of care providers you might have found yourself in a dilemma. I did. You may be looking for reassurance; signs of integrity and reliability. I was. It could be that you can't imagine, however much your loved one needs extra care, just how it would actually work for them. I
couldn't.
As soon as I made the first contact with Right At Home I felt a sense of relief. They reacted incredibly quickly to our situation which enabled my mum to leave the hospital. From the get-go, I found the communication, reliability, kindness and commitment to my mum, and to us as a family, exceptional. The carer team treated her like she was their only client and she loved them!
In a nutshell if you are asking yourself that indefinable question: Will they get it? They do.

Reply from Lea Mason, Registered Manager at Right at Home (Oxford)

Thank you for the lovely feedback, this gave us goosebumps. Your mum was a very kind and cheerful lady during the time spent with her. The care team will miss her, in the the short period of care we all grew very fond of your mum and the family. Thank you for choosing Right At Home Oxford to provide care and support for your mum.

I want to praise the wonderful care and positive proactive support we have received especially from the care coordinators over the last few weeks. My dad has been in hospital and so we had to make a number of changes to the care patterns, including contact with Right at Home at weekends. We also received
very helpful support related to discharge. I have been so impressed by the kindness and flexibility of your service at a difficult time for our family. It has made a huge difference to us. I wanted to nominate some people for an extra mile award, please can you explain how I can do that. Thank you so very much!

Right at Home has been brilliant! Their communication has been clear and prompt and they have been friendly, kind and very helpful throughout. We're still in the early days and navigating Dad's change from independence to needing help is not uncomplicated, but I feel I can trust the lovely RAH team
to ease the transition and treat Dad like a human being rather than a problem. Thank you Right at Home (Oxford)!

Absolutely wonderful service. We used them for daily care for my mum who has dementia and also for my dad who was receiving palliative care at home. We were able to tap into the night cover to help him with personal care so that family members could sleep. All the carers, manager and care coordinator
have been outstanding in their care and compassion. Thank you from my heart.

Mum’s deteriorating memory has resulted in her needing more help and supervision so she can stay at home. Within a short period of time, Right at Home were able to introduce a lovely lady who has moved into my old bedroom. She has quickly figured out how Mum ticks and makes sure Mum remains safe. Mum
can be a bit of a challenge at times but the carer handles situations calmly, quietly and with tons of patience.
My stress levels had reduced knowing the girls were keeping an eye on Mum when they came twice a day. Now someone is there providing care during the day and keeping an eye on Mum in case anything were to happen overnight, my stress levels are reducing.
Hats off to the amount of patience the girls have with mum. Thank you all.

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide such lovely feedback. We are so glad our intervention has helped you to feel calmer and that you feel your mum is in good hands! With patience and perseverance, we have jointly managed to get your mum to accept care to help her remain at home safely. Thank you for always working with the Right at Home Oxford team to enable us to achieve the best outcomes for your mum.

Although Right at Home was only needed to attend to my father for the final few days of his life, they did a wonderful job. During that time, the carers were all extremely kind and experienced. They carried out a number of tasks four times a day that ensured my dad was as comfortable as he could be
and he retained his dignity.

Reply from Maria Alegria, Managing Director at Right at Home (Oxford)

Dear Martin, we are grateful we were able to support your dad, and we are happy you feel we helped him, even if only in a small way to ease his suffering in his final days.
We are also immensely grateful that you took the time to leave feedback on the care we provided, particularly in these difficult times for you and the family. Thank you so much.

Right At Home have been amazing, the care they have given my mother is outstanding.
All of the team, just to mention a few, are wonderful. They go above and beyond to help my mum. It has put my mind at ease knowing she is in excellent care and being well looked after. She loves all of the ladies coming
in and taking her out, for coffee, ice cream or a walk.
Me and the family would be lost without them, they have become an important part of our family and we are so grateful to all of them.
Thank you to all of the Right At Home team in Oxford.

We are very pleased with the service provided by Right at Home (Oxford) for my partner and the way in which they have dealt with his increasing needs. We began last autumn, with companionship one morning a week. But, a sudden change in his health required immediate overnight care and a more professional
approach, which they managed quickly and efficiently. The staff are delightful and the office coordinators have been very helpful, often having to organise care very quickly, particularly during the daytime. We, as a family, are so glad that he is now so well looked after and cared for in his own home.

Dear Anne, thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We are so happy you feel your partner is well looked after.

Mum and the family have been very happy with Right at Home (Oxford). From the start, we were impressed with the way they do things differently from previous care providers we've had. For example; introducing Mum to her carers before the care started, having a weekly rota of the carers visiting Mum so
she knows who will be visiting, and being able to have direct feedback from every visit via the daily app. All this has been fantastic. But, most importantly, the carers have been punctual, kind, gentle and very caring with Mum. Mum is very happy with the care she receives and also enjoys chatting to them. We feel, as a family, reassured that Mum is being looked after with respect and professionalism.

All the staff at Right at Home Oxford have been delightful. They managed to set up care at short notice for my aunt, increased it when requested and quickly adjusted when requirements changed due to hospital admission/discharge. The coordinator has a can-do attitude and never makes you feel that you're
a nuisance. She also went the extra mile when my aunt had a fall when she was alone in the house and activated her wrist alarm. Although it wasn't Right at Home's responsibility she went around to check on her, called the ambulance and stayed with her for several hours, updating family who are 60 miles away. It was so reassuring. The regular carer looks for things to do even though my aunt isn't very good at asking for assistance. Nothing is too much trouble.

After six months so far with Right at Home the family are very happy with the care provided twice a day to our mother. The carers are always punctual, understand mums needs and deliver a level of care at home that enables her to live as full a life as possible, sometimes going over and above for mum.
The company always try to accommodate changes to visit times due to hospital visits, sometimes at short notice, and we always know in advance which carers will be visiting, something mum finds really useful. Right at Home give the family confidence that her needs are being met with respect and professionalism.

We have been using Right at Home now for over two years and we continue to be impressed.
Our aim has always been to keep dad in his own home and the whole team at Right at Home are helping us to do this. To do this we need regular communication from the office and the carers, which we have. We need
to feel the confidence, caring, and commitment of all the staff, which we do. Finally, we need to see that dad is happy and cared for, which he is. We cannot thank the team at Right at Home enough for all they’ve done and are doing which is enabling us to keep our dad happy, safe, and cared for properly in his own home. With all our appreciation, a very big thank you to the whole team.

Reply from Maria Alegria, Managing Director at Right at Home (Oxford)

Thank you so much for such a lovely review.
It has been a pleasure to care for your dad and to support the family.
Your dad is a character and a half and has such a fantastic sense of humour, all carers have loved visiting and supporting him!
Throughout the time we have supported your dad, the communication with the family has been nothing short of excellent and your support has been crucial in providing the best care for him. I would say the family deserves a 10-star rating for how well you look after your dad!
We wish your dad and the family all the very best. With all our love, thanks again for everything.

My daughter has been receiving care from Right at Home Oxford while she is studying at Oxford Brookes University. The dedicated staff have offered her invaluable support. It has been a relief for me to know that my daughter who has cerebral palsy needs are met, ranging from some personal care, to shopping,
cooking a healthy meal, and ensuring that she is safe in the way she does things. They have shown great flexibility and have worked around her needs.
I recommend them highly for their dedication.

I cannot thank Right at Home enough. My husband was ready to leave hospital at the end of January after a stay of several weeks and I was warned that NHS care would not be available for at least two or three weeks and that there was a chance that they would simply move him to a local hotel because they
wanted his bed. I was desperate when I contacted Right at Home who, although very busy, managed to arrange to help us out so that I could bring him home. Carers from Right at Home visited us daily in the mornings, washed and dressed my husband, kept his bedroom immaculate and made him innumerable cups of tea! Our carers were a complete delight; warm and friendly, always punctual, and extremely careful and they always treated my husband with respect and preserved his dignity. They kept him positive and me sane. They became our friends and we will miss them now that we can manage without them.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

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

    The Average Rating of 4.987 for Right at Home (Oxford) is calculated as follows: ( (75 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 76 Ratings = 4.987

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

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