Home care in Brentwood

For the last 30 years, we’ve been providing compassionate and empathetic home care to families across the country, ensuring that our customers receive an exceptional level of care with minimal disruption to their usual routines.

From as little as 30-minutes per week to regular daily calls, our Brentwood team are here to support you with anything you need, whether it’s preparing your evening meal or accompanying you on your morning walk around the country park.

We understand that everybody has their own individual care needs, regardless of their condition, which is why each of our carers complete a comprehensive, award-winning training programme to ensure that they have the knowledge and expertise to provide you with the best level of care. Our Brentwood team will also provide you with a personalised support plan that is built by and around you and your needs, so you can remain in control of your care.

Equipped in supporting individuals with a variety of conditions including dementia, multiple sclerosis, neurological injuries and cerebral palsy, our dedicated care team can provide support for any of the following care needs:

Live in care tailored to your needs

Whether you live as a couple, on your own or with your beloved pet, we understand that arranging support for you or your loved one can be unsettling. With Helping Hands, we provide bespoke live-in care in Brentwood packages so that you receive round-the-clock support in the comfort of your own home.

With live-in care, you’ll remain in control of your usual routine. With mealtimes whenever you want them to be, no restrictions on visitors and no strict times on going to bed or getting up in the morning, you’re able to continue to live your life on your terms, giving you and your family the reassurance that you’re in safe hands.

Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Brentwood

Since 1989 we have remained a family-run business, so we understand more than anyone how important it is that you receive the care that you need. Each of our carers are kind and compassionate by nature and each complete award-winning training covering areas such as manual handling, health & safety, safeguarding, equality & diversity, medication support and more.

In addition to in-house training, all of our carers are employed directly by Helping Hands, so you don’t need to worry about any paperwork or background checks. We ensure that each of our carers receive Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) screenings so you can rest assured that you’re in safe hands.

Not only are we the only home care provider endorsed as a Centre of Excellence by Skills for Care, but we are also fully licensed by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

Respite care for short term needs

We understand that care needs can arise at any time. Whether it’s an unexpected illness or injury or you are due to be discharged from hospital and you’re feeling anxious without the constant support that you’ve been used to. With as little as 24-hours’ notice, we can swiftly put a bespoke care package in place to give you the support you need, for as long as you need it.

The team at our Brentwood branch will not only provide you with the high-quality care that you’re expecting, but they will also ensure a seamless transition between carers so that you receive minimal disruption to your daily routine.

Whether you’re looking for support for a weekend or a fortnight, our Brentwood team can provide a personalised respite care package for any of the following instances:

Hospital discharge – If you need short-term care after time in hospital to rebuild your independence
Emergencies – When your regular carer needs to tend to an emergency
Short breaks – Giving your carer some time to rest and recuperate without any detriment to your ongoing care
One-off occasions – When you want to join your family to enjoy a special event, such as a wedding or birthday celebration

FAQs

Home care in Brentwood is professional support provided in your own home, helping you or a loved one stay safe, comfortable and independent without needing to move into residential care. It can be arranged as regular visiting care, occasional support, respite care, or full-time live-in care, depending on your needs.

With Helping Hands, care is built around your routine, so support can include anything from help getting up in the morning to companionship, meal preparation, medication prompts, mobility support and personal care.

Home care can include a wide range of practical, personal and emotional support. This may include help with washing, dressing, toileting, medication prompts, preparing meals, light housework, shopping, attending appointments, mobility support and companionship.

Care can be flexible, from short visits during the week to several visits a day or live-in care. The right level of support will depend on your needs, routines and preferences.

A carer can help with everyday tasks that have become difficult to manage alone. This might include getting in and out of bed, washing and dressing, preparing meals, moving safely around the home, taking medication, keeping the house tidy, going shopping, attending appointments or simply having someone there for companionship.

The aim is to provide the right amount of support while helping you maintain independence, dignity and confidence at home.

The cost of home care in Brentwood depends on the type and amount of support you need. Helping Hands’ visiting care prices currently start from £32.40 per hour, with visits available from 30 minutes, and live-in care currently starts from £1,675 per week for one person. A call-out or travel charge may also apply.

Because everyone’s needs are different, the best way to get an accurate price is to arrange a care assessment. This helps create a tailored care plan and a clear breakdown of costs before care begins.

Home care can be cheaper than a care home, especially if you only need support for part of the day or a few times a week. Age UK says privately arranged home care can cost around £25 per hour, while residential care averages around £949 per week and nursing home care around £1,267 per week, although costs vary by area and needs.

For people who need round-the-clock support, live-in care may be closer in cost to residential care, but it allows you to remain in your own home, keep familiar routines and receive one-to-one support.

Yes. Helping Hands states that its service is regulated by the Care Quality Commission, or CQC, in England and the Care Inspectorate Wales, or CIW, in Wales. These regulators monitor care providers to make sure they meet required standards for safety, quality and care delivery.

Individual branch ratings can vary, so it is always worth checking the relevant local branch profile when arranging care in Brentwood.

Home care in Brentwood can often be arranged quickly, depending on your needs, location and carer availability. In many cases, care can begin within a few days, and urgent support may be possible sooner following an assessment.

The first step is usually a conversation about your situation, followed by a care assessment and a personalised care plan. This helps make sure the right support is in place from the start.
