    Care agency in Farnham

    We’re not a care agency at Helping Hands, and we never have been – we’re a private home care company whose mission has always been to keep you as safe as possible in your own home, while providing you with every aspect of your daily routine and promoting your independence at every opportunity. Some care agencies simply offer a ‘referral’ or ‘introductory’ service, charging you fees for putting you in touch with a carer and then having no more to do with the situation. We take great pride in matching you with one of our directly employed carers, making sure they are the right person for you and ensuring that our local care managers are managing every aspect of the relationship, and the same is true for our Fareham branch.

    Domiciliary care that puts you in control

    Moving out of your family home isn’t necessary, especially if there are alternative options. Domiciliary care, also known as home care, is a great option for those wanting to remain in their own home but require a little support.

    You might just need help with laundry or hoovering due to mobility issues, or you may need a gentle reminder to take your medication. Either way, our professional and friendly carers will be on hand to help you and your family, no matter your condition.

    Dementia care and support in Farnham

    As a degenerative condition, dementia affects people in different ways, so for this reason, we make sure that your care package suits exactly what you need.

    Throughout our award-winning training, our carers go through specific dementia training, ensuring they’re capable and confident to deal with any difficulties the condition can bring.

    Maintaining familiarity and your usual routine is key; that’s why live-in care is such a popular option. Limiting disruption and confusion is important, especially for those with dementia.

    Dementia doesn’t only affect the person living with the condition; it affects their friends and family too. For this reason, we have a team of dementia care specialists who are more than happy to speak with you about dementia care available in Farnham.

    FAQs

    Home care in Farnham 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 Farnham 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 Farnham.

    Home care in Farnham 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.
