Emergency care
It’s not always possible to anticipate when you might need care. In those moments when you unexpectedly find yourself without the support you normally require to manage in the day-to-day, emergency care from Helping Hands might be the ideal solution. It might be that your normal carer has been taken ill and is unable to fulfil their normal schedule, or you’ve been discharged from hospital earlier than anticipated. Whatever your reason for needing emergency care, Helping Hands are generally able to have one of our brilliant carers in your home within 24 hours of your call to seamlessly pick up all the routines and chores your normal carer would take care of.
