With live-in care from Helping Hands, you’ll benefit from having one of our superb carers come to live with you in your home and provide you with round-the-clock support, ensuring you’re never left isolated or feeling unable to cope with your household tasks and chores. We’ll pair you up with a carer who matches your personality and shares your interests and likes to make sure you’ve not only got someone who can provide you with care, but who can also be a companion to you. All of our carers are highly trained and will respect your personal space, as well as being able to assist you in a variety of ways around the home – from helping you bathe and dress to preparing your meals and assisting with medication.
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.
When you choose to use a private care provider such as Helping Hands, you’ll receive a level of care that truly values attention to detail. From your very first phone call to us, every aspect of your care plan will be completely tailored to your individual needs and preferences – down to which meals you prefer, and when you’d like to go to bed. You’ll also get to benefit from one-to-one care from one of our exceptional carers, all of whom have received our award-winning training.
With overnight care, you’ll benefit from having one of our carers stay with you throughout the night in case you need assistance with anything or experience a fall or medical emergency. Overnight care offers invaluable peace of mind to loved ones and gives you the reassurance of knowing there’s constantly an expert pair of hands nearby who can give you all the assistance you require should anything occur.
