What’s included with home care in Basildon?

With visits from just 30 minutes, Helping Hands home carers will be able to support you with whatever you’re struggling to do on your own. Perhaps you need a higher level of home care after a hospital discharge or you’re developing frailties? Your local Basildon branch can send someone to you for as little or as much time as you need, including full-time live-in care.

Our flexible style of care at home will be tailored to your exact needs, and a support plan will be produced in conjunction with you or your decision makers, meaning that you can be confident in the care you receive and the carers who deliver it.

We can even help you take care of your pets, so if you’re not confident to take your dog for a walk on your own, why not call the branch team and talk through your options?

Live in care services to support your needs

Here at Helping Hands, we have been at the forefront of compassionate and empathetic home care for 30 years, ensuring that our customers are able to remain safe and secure in the comfort of their own home.

Whether you’re looking for 30 minutes a week to accompany you for a walk around the Wat Tyler Country Park, or more regular daily calls that require more complex or overnight support, our team providing live in care in Basildon are here to provide the support you need, when you need it.

We understand that, regardless of the condition, each individual customer has their own individual requirements. Our Basildon team will work with you and your family to ensure that you have full control over your home care, with minimal interruption to your everyday life.

Fully-trained home carers in Basildon

We’re proud to be one of the leading care providers in the UK, and with 30 years’ experience we understand exactly what is needed to provide the perfect level of care. The qualities it takes to become a home carer are not always traits that can be taught, which is why we only select the very best individuals to become part of our family.

Each of our carers are fully trained in areas including manual handling, health & safety, safeguarding and medication support, and each harbour the faultless qualities of compassion, empathy and understanding.

As well as receiving full background checks, such as Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) screening, our carers also receive regular training courses to ensure their skills and practice are always of the highest standard.

Helping Hands are the only care provider to be endorsed as a Centre of Excellence by Skills for Care, as well as being fully licensed by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

Private care Basildon - to support you

We understand that accepting the need for more support for you or your loved one can be an unsettling time, but with private care from the team, we can help to alleviate any worries that you may have.

Whether you live on your own, as a couple or with your beloved pet, live-in care provides you with round-the-clock support to ensure that you can remain confident and independent in the comfort of your own home. Regardless of your requirements, our Basildon team will work around you to ensure that you receive personable and unintrusive care that is completely tailored to you.

Here at Helping Hands, independence and stability are at the forefront of our care and we work with you to find the right carer that is suited to your personality, hobbies and interests. So, if you like to take day trips into the capital or enjoy watching the wakeboarding at the Aqua Park, we’ll find the right person for you so that you don’t just receive a carer; you’ll gain a friend.

Live-in care enables you to remain comfortable in your own surroundings while still living each day on your terms. With no visiting restrictions and no set meal times, our live-in team will provide personalised and unintrusive care so that you can continue with the life that you love.
