Home care in Andover
Visiting care and home care in Andover
In 955, Andover’s name was recorded in Old English as ‘Andeferas’, which is believed to be derived from the Celtic words for ‘ash’ and ‘water’. Nowadays, it is home to Twinings tea, which is a significant upgrade on ash and water.
At Helping Hands Andover, we’re able to provide you with dedicated home care in Andover and the surrounding area from as little as 30 minutes a week. Our compassionate, highly trained carers can support you in any way you might require – from simply chatting over a cup of tea to providing complex support for a range of medical conditions.

Meet the Andover care team
Regional Care Director
Hi, I’m Adam and as Regional Care Director, I’m responsible for making sure that all the customers we help day-in day-out across the South West and South Wales are looked after brilliantly. In order to do this, we need to have the very best carers and support teams there for them so that they can thrive within Helping Hands and do what they do best: care. I think we do everything possible to really understand our customers’ needs and then do everything possible to find the right carer for them. Our carers do a wonderful job, and they are special people who are ‘hardwired’ to care.

Other care we provide
High quality home care Andover
With home care, you’re in control of your care plan every step of the way. From your very first phone call to us, you’ll be able to make decisions about every aspect of your care plan – no matter how big or small they might be. From the amount and type of care you receive to your meal preferences and bed times, your care plan will be customised to fit your specific wishes and requirements and can be adjusted as your needs progress, ensuring you receive a package of care that is perfectly suited to your individual circumstances.
Bespoke live-in care services
If you’re starting to find that regular visiting care isn’t sufficient for your care requirements, you may wish to consider live-in care as an option. Live-in care provides you with round-the-clock care from one of our compassionate, expert carers who will be able to support you day-to-day in whatever way you might need – from personal care and mobility assistance to taking you out and preparing your meals. Having a live-in carer is a great alternative to moving to a residential nursing home because it means you’ll get to stay in the home you love, surrounded by familiar views and furnishing, and you’ll be able to spend more time seeing friends and family.
Better than a care agency Andover
Choosing your care from Helping Hands is a bit like choosing an expensive car over a mid-priced one. Both will deliver reliable service, but one will always be head and shoulders above the other on performance. That’s the difference with our Andover carers; they’re handpicked to ensure that they share our ethos for providing excellent care in our customers’ homes and putting your safety and comfort at the forefront of everything they do. We’re not – and have never been – a care agency; we were founded as a private home care company back in 1989 and since then we’ve retained our family values and dedication to providing an exemplary service. We employ all of our carers directly too, which you won’t find with an agency; paying above the average and offering perks that keep them motivated and always happy to come to work. That’s the Helping Hands difference.
Emergency care
With emergency care from Helping Hands, you won’t need to panic the next time you unexpectedly find yourself without the support you need. Perhaps you’ve experienced an accident which requires a lengthy recovery period, or your normal carer has let you down and left you completely unsupported. At Helping Hands, we’re normally able to have one of our brilliant carers in your home within 24 hours of your call, meaning your life can continue as normal and you won’t have to stress about the housework getting done or the dog being taken for a walk.
