Qualified carers providing assisted living in Ashford
Whatever you’re going through, we can be there to help you. Whether you’ve been living with a condition for a while or have recently been diagnosed with one, our condition-led care can support you with anything from dementia, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and more. We are also experts on elderly care and can cater a plan that can help with mobility support, create a daily routine that includes light exercise and can support other age-related frailties.

When to consider assisted living
Assisted living care may be perfect for your situation if you need an extra hand nowadays around the house or with day-to-day life. Our carers are wonderful at housekeeping, meal preparation and companionship. We’re always hearing about how well our customers and carers are getting on like a house on fire, and we try to match our carers to your personality and interests. They are trained by registered nurses to offer nursing care which can help with medication administration, catheter and stoma care, enema support and PEG feeding.

How much does assisted living cost?
See our costs and funding page for a closer look at our prices. Live-in care in Ashford is designed for full-time, around-the-clock support if you need a trusted companion with you 24/7 and visiting care can be from just 30 minutes a week. Respite care is a short-term, temporary lifeline if you need help getting back on your feet or if your primary caregiver needs some time off.
We have a few branches near the Ashford area, including Folkestone and Maidstone, so feel free to come in and pay us a visit. We’d be happy to discuss your options and how we can help you here at Helping Hands. Or you can always contact us over the phone or via our seven-day-a-week Live Chat on our website.
