services in Hampshire
Right at Home have a great reputation,
which of course is important when it
comes to choosing the right home care
service, whether it’s companionship,
dementia care, personal care or stroke
recovery and rehabilitation. Rated ‘Good
to Outstanding’ by the CQC (Care Quality
Commission), they have branches across
the country and Hampshire, with details
at the foot of this article.What types of home care are on offer?
Right at Home offer a range of care for
the elderly in their own home including:
companionship, live-in care, specialist care,
personal care, Alzheimer’s and dementia
support, hospital to home services, stroke
rehabilitation as well as helping with day
trips and outings.Companionship and support
For families and friends that live far away
from their loved ones, companionship is
a vital aspect of Right at Home’s service.
Caregivers will act as a friend to talk and
listen to whilst also offering the client
emotional support, light housekeeping,
assisting with social interaction in the
community, help with transport and
escorting on outings and trips. At the same
time this companionship can act as respite
for family carers.Specialist care
As we know, it’s a positive thing for
elderly people to remain at home
wherever possible, but in some cases
they may require specialist care due
to various health conditions. Right at
Home have caregivers who are trained
in assisting clients with various medical
issues including: cancer, osteoarthritis,
diabetes, neuromuscular disorders, spinal
injuries and end of life care.Personal care
Caregivers from Right at Home provide
personal care to those who need it in a
respectful way, retaining a client’s dignity
and independence. Assisting with personal
hygiene and grooming, oral hygiene and
incontinence care, caregivers offering
personal care will do so in a discreet,
professional manner.Alzheimer’s and dementia
In dementia care and Alzheimer’s support,
a safe environment is vital in the client’s
home. Right at Home caregivers ensure
this safety as well as offering advice on
adaptations that will make life easier. They
also provide emotional support and respite
to family and loved ones.Hospital to home
For clients requiring hospital visits, or
those recovering after a long stay, Rightat Home’s c a reg iver s offer suppor t t h roug h
the discharge process, help with washing
and personal care, meal preparation,
transportation and more. They can also
act as a physical assistant in order to assist
with safe movement around the home.Stroke rehabilitation
Stroke recovery can often be a long process
and Right at Home’s stroke care service
places the focus on the individual and their
independence. Following their treatment
for stroke, patients can then be supported
by Right at Home caregivers from the
comfort of the own home, following a
customised stroke rehabilitation program
provided by the hospital.Live-in care
As an alternative to a care home, Right at
Home have a live-in care service. This type
of care allows the client a personalised
care plan whilst remaining in familiar
surroundings. With a caregiver living
with the client in their home, it also acts
as companion care preventing loneliness
and isolation.With the help of Right at Home, we take a look at a
range of home care options available in and around
Hampshire including dementia care, companionship
and stroke recovery
