About Right at Home Billericay, & Havering
At Right at Home Billericay, Brentwood and Havering, we provide personalised home care to people across Brentwood and the surrounding areas of Essex. Our focus is on enabling people to live comfortably and confidently in their own homes, on their own terms. We support a wide range of individuals, including older adults, younger adults, and people living with dementia, physical disabilities, or visual and hearing impairments. We also have experience supporting people managing eating disorders, which is an area that requires particular sensitivity and understanding. Whatever the circumstances, we take time to get to know each person properly before care begins, so that what we provide genuinely fits around their life rather than the other way around. Care at home means something different to everyone. For some people it is help with everyday tasks, for others it is companionship, personal care, or more complex support. We work closely with clients and their families to agree on what is needed and how it should be delivered, and we revisit that regularly as needs change. We are proud that our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us as Good. That matters to us not as a badge to display, but because it reflects the standard our team consistently works to maintain in people's homes day to day. We know that inviting someone into your home, or into the home of someone you love, is not a decision made lightly. We treat that trust seriously. Our team is carefully chosen, well supported, and expected to deliver care that they would be comfortable receiving themselves. If you would like to find out more about how we might be able to help, we are always happy to have an honest conversation about your situation and what options might suit you best.
