During an assessment under our new approach

Date of assessment: 29 May to 1 June 2026.

Right at Home Reigate Crawley is a domiciliary care service providing a regulated activity of personal care. The service was providing care and support to people in their own homes. Not everyone who used the service received personal care. The Care Quality Commission (CQC) only inspects where people receive personal care. This is help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. Where they do, we also consider any wider social care provided. At the time of the inspection the service was supporting 37 people who were receiving personal care.

Staff felt happy at work, appreciated and were complimentary about the management of the service. A staff member told us, “The staff are all very competent and kind and it really feels like a coherent team. I am proud to work for a company that keeps to its high values and also has what I would call ‘good human quality.”

People were supported by a consistent team of staff who knew them well and treated them with kindness and compassion. Safeguarding procedures were in place to ensure people were protected from avoidable harm. Appropriate referrals were made to external health professionals when needed.

Staff understood and were knowledgeable about people’s health conditions and the risks around their safety and wellbeing.Risks to people’s safety were identified and mitigated.People were involved and consulted in their care and their views were respected. The service culture was focused on encouraging people’s independence and enabling people to live full lives.

About the service: Right at Home Reigate and Crawley is a domiciliary care agency which provides care and support to people in their own homes. It provides a service to older people living with dementia, sensory impairment and physical disabilities and younger people. Not everyone using Right at Home Reigate and Crawley receives the regulated activity; CQC only inspects the service being received by people provided with ‘personal care’; help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. Where they do we also take into account the wider social care provided. The service had a total of 18 clients who received the regulated activity personal care.

People’s experience of using this service:

People who received care from Right at Home Reigate and Crawley told us they felt safe and well supported by staff who visited them. They stated that staff were “excellent" and they would carry out extra requests if asked. Staff were punctual for visits and cared for people in an extremely person-centred manner.

People were supported to continue living at home in a way that enabled them to be as independent as possible. Staff and senior managers went to great efforts to make sure that people took part in activities and encouraged people to enjoy those activities that mattered to them.

Staff were trained and supported to be effective carers in a collaborative team. Staff responded to people’s healthcare needs and supported them to access healthcare professionals such as occupational therapists, GPs, dietitians and district nurses.

People and relatives described staff as caring and kind. People and their relatives told us that staff and management at the service were approachable and friendly and staff got to know them very well.

Care plans were produced from the pre admission assessments with the involvement of people and their relatives. This ensured they were person centred and tailored to people’s needs and routines.

The agency was well managed by a supportive management team. People, relatives and staff told us that the management of the agency listened to them and acted on suggestions they made. We received positive feedback from an external professional around the care provided by the staff.
