Trusted Home Care in Southampton: What Makes Right at Home Different
“Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide.” – Napoleon Bonaparte

Choosing the right home care provider is one of the most difficult decisions a family member will make. You want to find a provider that will give the same care and compassion you should give yourself. But with so many options out there, how do you choose?
At Right at Home Solent and Southampton, we understand how important that decision is. That’s why we provide our services differently, to ensure that you have peace of mind while entrusting your loved ones in our hands. Our approach to home care is built on dignity, consistency, and a genuine desire to help people live safely and independently in the place they love most — their home.
We’ll explore exactly what sets our service apart, and why families across Solent and Southampton choose us for trusted home care that puts people first.
We Take Time to Care Properly
We wanted to ensure that our Care Assistants have more time to provide quality service. That’s why we give them a minimum of 60 minutes, unlike traditional services that offer 15- or 30-minute visits. From assisting with daily routines to simply enjoying a chat, these longer visits build genuine relationships and reduce the stress that rushed visits can bring.
We Focus on People, Not Just Tasks
Studies have shown that person-centered care can lead to better health outcomes, increased patient satisfaction, and improved quality of life. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, we offer person-centered care that is tailored to the individual. We focus on getting to know our clients better—their routines, preferences, personalities, and needs.
You’ll See Familiar, Friendly Faces
Building trust requires consistent effort and vulnerability. That’s why we strive to provide consistent Carer Assistant not a rotating list of strangers. This means that we aim to be far more dignified because everyone deserves to feel respected, safe, and valued in their own home.
You Decide the Schedule:We Stick to It
We always promote choice, ensuring that every person we support stays in control of their own life, decisions, and daily routines. We let our clients choose their preferred care times, and we stick to it. Unlike some providers, we also don’t deduct travel time from your care visit. This guarantees the full time you’ve scheduled for care, as no time is subtracted for travel.
We Introduce Your Care Assistant
At Right at Home Solent & Southampton, we always arrange a proper introduction before the care begins. We believe that ethical and dignified care starts with respecting your right to know who’s coming into your home because trust begins with a name and a friendly hello. A warm and positive introduction helps the client feel more at ease and open to engaging with the Care Assistant.
Discreet and Natural Care:No Uniforms
Our Care Assistants do not wear Uniforms, meaning a 'less clinical' feel for our clients. They are required to wear PPE, but also are able to express themselves, supporting to build a relationship with their client. When taking clients out, this means there can be more discretion, and if they don't want others knowing they have Carers, our team can look just like a friend!
High-Quality Home Care, Fairly Priced
We believe in offering fair pricing for high-quality, professional care that meets your expectations and truly supports your loved one’s well-being. Getting the most advantageous combination of cost, quality, and other relevant factors like sustainability to meet your specific needs. It's not just about the lowest price but about maximizing the benefit you receive for the amount you spend.

At Right at Home Solent: Southampton, Fareham, Gosport & New Forest East, we do things differently. We value our clients through a service that’s thoughtful, consistent, and built on real relationships.
