What Makes Right at Home Different for Clients in Stebbing?
We are an independently owned franchise within a network whose first priority is quality. Right at Home is widely recognised as a quality home care provider in the UK - in 2023 homecare.co.uk placed us as the third best-rated provider in the UK. This was even more remarkable because of Right at Home's relative size vs the top 5. We had at least 11 times more offices.
But what about this office I hear you ask! Well, we operate like a family because we share the same values: we are led by people who are driven to provide quality care to you or your loved one & all new joiners to the team are expected to share these values too.
We fully live the values-based approach and you can always expect us to adhere to these values.

Mark Brackenbury
Our first client, Mark, left a lasting impression with his infectious laughter and ebullient personality.
Born in Newcastle around 1930, he later settled in Stebbing, where he led a remarkable life marked by a wide range of interests and expertise.
Mark's intelligence was obvious during our first encounter; a Mensa member, he had studied Chemistry at Oxford. However, he was not only razor sharp intellectually, he was also wonderfully humourous and many conversations would end up in roaring laughter!
His career was as varied as his talents, spanning roles as a stockbroker in the City, an actor, and even an opera singer. Impressively, Mark's booming voice remained a force at the age of 89 and we would often be treated to something operatic.
A member of the famous Garrick Club in London, Mark's passion for sailing led him and his family on a world tour in the 1980s. Besides his adventurous spirit, Mark was a devoted family man.
We named our training room after Mark and team meetings and training are all held in the Mark Brackenbury Suite in our office in Great Dunmow!
Fun Fact: Stebbing has a wonderful and popular village store which is run by volunteers, Stebbing Village Community Stores, it gets rave reviews for the products it sells. A local guide describes its bread pudding as "possibly the best home made bread pudding in Essex sold here."
Right at Home in Stebbing
So much care provision these days is provided in a rushed fashion because the CareGivers are expected to cram as many calls in as possible. Inevitably this leads to cutting corners and providing the minimal level of support.
Whether we provide companionship services, personal care, night support or any other type of support, Right at Home's ethos is that we do not provide rushed care. Typically, our care calls are longer in duration than most providers - we have a preferred minimum time of 1 hour.
We make full use of the time we are with you, however, we like to do this at the right pace, getting to know our Clients and building trust. We like to achieve results and always aim to improve our Clients' lives, in whatever way possible. We love to get our Clients out and about in the local community, getting involved with activities, for example, getting back into bowls and visiting the local bowling club.
You can find out more about our services here, or by giving us a call and we will be more than happy to discuss things in more detail.
