Following a recent stay in hospital I found myself in need of some support to aid my return home. I found the process of arranging support very easy and thankfully the team had someone available to support my discharge home from hospital. The support worker that was allocated to me was just excellent!
He arrived promptly each day and was really flexible as to the support that I needed. Great companionship that helped overcome my first few days at home. I would thoroughly recommend the team to anyone needing some help when returning from an extended hospital stay! Thank you!

From the first initial contact with the agency, my enquiry was dealt with promptness of response, efficiency, care and sensitivity. The first assessment visit with the care manager to ascertain needs was also of a very high standard with great attention to detail to ensure that the correct carer was
allocated to my mother. The carer(s) have been punctual in timekeeping, attentive, sensitive and responsive to the caring tasks. They have been of a very caring nature and increased my mother’s standard of living both physically and emotionally.

Thank you for your lovely comments. Our CareGiver, Stefanie looks forward to each visit. We are so pleased to be able to support your mother and promote her independence in her own home.

I am delighted by the flexible approach of the management. My situation is atypical but has been sensibly handled by the staff. My main carer is an absolute gem. She brings efficiency, flexibility and dignity to me, and that is priceless. The other carer is not as good and needs to understand the boundaries
of what is essentially a professional relationship.

We started using Right at Home in July to provide some home support for my mother who has Alzheimer's. It was very hard for my mother to accept she needed help and the member of staff was very supportive and patient about working through the process with her and helping her to see the positives. The
carer they matched her with has been ideal and she has made a big difference to my mother, both in terms of practical support and her general well-being. She works alongside my mother so that she feels fully involved and treated as an equal and this has helped boost her confidence and general motivation to be more active. From my perspective, it has given me much greater peace of mind to know she has someone we can trust coming in a couple of days a week and it has been wonderful to see the positive effect it has had on my mum. Communication is excellent and it is reassuring to know this member of staff is closely involved and keeping me updated.

Thank you for your lovely review. All our CareGivers go through a thorough recruitment, induction and training process. This ensures we only have the very best CareGivers supporting our clients. We are so pleased that our CareGiver has built up a trusting relationship with your mother in such a short time. We look forward to continuing to support your mother.

Right at Home was the very first caring agency I researched. After a phone call to the manager who talked me through the process of setting up a carer and reading the information guide I knew immediately that this professional company would be the one to assist my elderly parents on a weekly basis,
with an option for more visits should the need arise. I explained that personal health care and household jobs would assist my parents greatly. The manager arranged a home visit to meet my parents and for a thorough assessment to take place with them.
Right at Home has come up trumps providing a fabulous carer for my parents who takes great pride in her caring role maintaining dignity and respect at all times. She is thorough, cheerful, kind and very helpful, in fact my parents look forward to seeing her each week! As Covid-19 is a worry PPE and face covering are worn throughout the visit. Thank you so much Right at Home, the quality of service you provide is second to none!

Thank you so much for your review! Our Care Giver in a short space of time has built a lovely bond with your parents. We always strive to provide the highest quality of care possible and we are really pleased to see the positive difference our services are having.

Finding a care provider for my 91-year mother, who lives with dementia, during the COVID crisis was a daunting prospect, however, I was instantly reassured by the manager at Right at Home, Ilkley. She put together an effective programme of support for my mother, which was greatly appreciated by the
family.
The four caregivers who visited my mother were all very diligent and provided high-quality care. My mother looked forward to their visits and we noticed how much more settled she was while being cared for by the Right at Home team. Unfortunately, my mother needed to move into a care home but the family are very grateful for the level of care and support my mum received from the team prior to her move.

Reply from Paresh Mistry, Director at Right at Home (Ilkley, Keighley & Skipton)

Thank you for your lovely review. Our CareGivers really enjoyed visiting your mother. We do hope she has settled in nicely in her new home.

I recently had to visit my 94-year-old aunt who had injured her hand. On arrival she was being attended by her carers from Right at Home who on learning of my Aunts' injury had doubled up in order to lift her safely, I was impressed with the speed and effiency the agency coped with the situation but
most of all the care and compassion they showed my aunt was outstanding. Both ladies willingly stayed to help and reassure my aunt whilst waiting for an ambulance and the managing director was very good at keeping me informed of the situation over the weekend. It was heartwarming when one of the carers commented to me during the wait "I worry about her even when I am not here" she is a credit to the team.

Thank you for your kind words. To us, our clients are our extended family. We will always ensure that their safety is a priority. Our CareGivers are highly trained and always go above and beyond to support our clients.

Very friendly staff we have a few laughs along the way. We are lucky to have good weather. It is a good idea to find a location among people with similar interests. We all need people to share interests with.

I contacted Right at Home, Ilkley in May 2020 to enquire about day-time care for my 96-year-old aunt. My husband and I had been caring for my aunt during lock-down and could not go home until we knew she had a care in place for the future. From the initial enquiry, through to the signing of the contract,
and now to our review of the service my aunt has received so far, Right at Home has been exemplary.
From the very beginning, Right at Home was very proactive and professional in answering my questions, allaying my concerns, asking all the right questions about my aunt's requirements and making an accurate assessment of her needs. The manager chose a perfect caregiver for my aunt and the hand-over was smooth and efficient. We were present for the first two days to facilitate the hand-over, which went well. We were able to leave my aunt in very good hands. Since then we have been impressed with the care my aunt has received and she is very happy.

Thank you for your lovely review. We are so pleased that we are able to support your Aunt to continue to live in her own home. We strive to match our carers to clients with similar interests as we believe this really enhances the quality of care and support we provide. Our carer enjoys visiting and supporting your Aunt.

My wife and I were looking for a suitable in-home care supplier for my parents who both have degenerative medical issues. After the usual Google search I sent out emails to several companies I hoped could assist us. The management team reached out to me promptly and after a short telephone conversation,
I set up an initial meet and greet appoint. I'm aware that this can be a challenging time for people who are reluctant to have in-home care but the manager and the team took time to answer all my parent's questions and queries and they went from being concerned and reluctant to receive care to looking forward to their regular visits within the first week! We use this type of care to augment the ongoing social services care that's provided for them as it's a far more personal and flexible type of care and it gives my parents a superior level of social interaction and friendship due to the highly personalised plan made for them. I cannot recommend or thank these people enough.
