Our CareGivers in Ampthill
Our compassionate and friendly CareGivers take the time to understand what matters most to you. They can assist with daily tasks such as cooking, cleaning, taking medication, and mobility. They are also there to provide companionship and help Clients avoid feelings of loneliness and isolation.
We also consider personality and interests when matching CareGivers with Clients, ensuring a genuine connection and a comfortable home environment. To ensure you are comfortable with your CareGiver, we always introduce you to each other before care begins, whether that is through a phone call, online video chat or even face-to-face.
All of our CareGivers go through standardised and accredited training programmes to ensure they stay up to date with the best practices and regulations. As such, if your regular CareGiver is unable to make a visit, one of our other reliable CareGivers can deliver the same impeccable standard of care.
Jean F | Daughter of Client"Right at Home have supported us in caring for our mum who is living with dementia. They have some great carers who took the time to get to know my mum, take her for walks with the dog, take her out for lunch or to visit a garden centre - all things Mum loves to do! The office management are brilliant! Very flexible and understanding as our needs are continuously changing. I would not hesitate to recommend Right at Home to anyone looking for a trusted partner to care for a relative."
Why Choose Right at Home Bedford for Your Homecare Needs?
Longer Visit Times
Many people assume that homecare involves CareGivers coming in and rushing through their tasks so they can head to the next appointment.
We are dedicated to changing that preconception. By insisting on one-hour minimum visits, we give our CareGivers more time to ensure your needs are fully met. We also find that longer visits help our Clients build a rapport with their CareGivers, allowing a more rewarding relationship to blossom.
Personalised Client Support Plans
Whether you need occasional help or regular assistance, Right at Home will create a personalised Support Plan tailored to your needs.
Because we are an outcome-focused company, we prioritise your wants and wishes above all else. We seek to provide support that works for you – and always provide the same level of care we would expect for ourselves or our loved ones.
We understand no two Clients are the same. As such, we adapt all our services to your specific requirements. In addition, we continually evaluate our homecare service and how you are getting on with your CareGiver, adapting the plan as and when required to ensure you continually receive the best care.
Local CareGivers
Here at Right at Home Bedford, we are committed to ensuring our Clients and CareGivers get as much out of their time together as possible. For that reason, we always try to hire CareGivers who are local to the Ampthill area.
Their local knowledge comes in handy when suggesting fun things to do in the community. Some Clients also like to know that their CareGivers share their values and are more likely to trust somebody who comes from the same area as them.
Rest assured, if you’re looking for homecare with Right at Home, we’ll pair you with somebody you can trust.

Homecare in Ampthill: What Do Our Clients Enjoy in the Local Area?
Ampthill, in the Greensand Ridge, offers a mix of history and nature for our homecare Clients to enjoy.
The town’s heritage, dating back to Anglo-Saxon times, means there are many historical sites for people to explore. Some Clients enjoy walks in the parklands of Ampthill Castle, where they can see the stone cross marking Queen Catherine of Aragon's confinement or imagine King Henry VIII hunting on the same grounds.
Ampthill also has a weekly market, where Clients can browse locally produced food and handmade crafts.
For those looking to explore beyond Ampthill, nearby attractions like Woburn Abbey and Safari Park are great for day trips – our CareGivers are more than happy to accompany Clients on excursions to ensure (discreetly) that they enjoy the day fully and receive the best level of care.
With an events calendar featuring festivals and cultural shows, there’s always something to entertain in Ampthill.
