Visiting care and home care in Bexley
With some of the most beautiful 18th century buildings in the country to visit, it’s no wonder that Bexley is one of London’s hidden historical gems. With the likes of the beautiful Danson House, the elegant Hall Palace & Gardens and the fashionable arts & crafts building co-designed by the famous William Morris, you’re sure to find somewhere to while away the afternoons in this London Borough. There is even a local team of Helping Hands carers who can enable you to visit these wonderful places and to retain your independence at home.
The team of dedicated and responsive carers at our Bexley branch cover support across Belvedere, Bexley, Bexleyheath, Erith, Sidcup, Welling and the surrounding areas.

Meet the Bexley care team
Branch Care Manager
As a Branch Manager for Helping Hands, I take pride in ensuring high-quality and safe service for all. I also focus on supporting my team, helping them feel confident in their roles. Outside of work, I love cooking for family and friends. Socializing and making others feel comfortable is my strength, and I'm always ready to lend a Helping Hand. When I am not at work, you’ll often find me cooking up a storm for family and friends. I’m also an avid traveler – recently, I took the plunge and embarked on various solo adventures, something I never thought I’d do before! And yes, I’ll admit it: I have a soft spot for some TV, with Judge Judy / Judy Justice being my guilty pleasure. I love a good crime series too. Socialising and making people feel at ease is my forte. Some people may say I am a perfectionist, but I would say a job done well is a job well done!

Other care we provide
Specialised Home care in Bexley
For over 30 years, we have been supporting thousands of people to stay within the comfort of their own homes whilst receiving the highest quality care from our fantastic carers. And as the industry leaders in home care, we really do know what it takes to provide exceptional care.
Visiting care covers a whole host of different elements of care:
- Personal care
- Support with medication
- Assisting with mobility aids
- Household duties
- Companionship
- Helping you to get out and about in Bexley
What’s great about visiting care is that it’s tailored entirely around you and your preferences. So, if you require daily assistance with making meals but would like to add an extra visit the following week so that you can be accompanied to the shops, we’ll be completely flexible around you.
Stay in your own home with live-in care
As a direct alternative to a nursing home, live-in care offers peace of mind and reassurance for you and your loved ones that you are receiving one-to-one support that you require, whilst remaining in the familiar surroundings of your own home. If you are living with a partner or beloved pet, live-in care enables you to stay together so that your routines are left unaltered, just with extra support from a dedicated live-in carer.
Living with you in your home, a live-in carer will be able to support you in all elements of daily living, but also enable you to keep your independence and do the things that you want to do. So, if you need assistance with transferring from a mobility aid to your bed or chair but prefer to tend to your own personal care, we’ll only be involved where you want us to be.
Elderly care for extra peace of mind
If your loved ones require extra support with preparing meals, getting their weekly shop or just general companionship, elderly care from the Bexley team could be the solution to both of your worries. Not only will a member of the team pop in to check on them, but they can also take them out and about in the local community for some fresh air and adventure.
And if their care needs change at any point or if they become more unsteady on their feet, we can increase their visits or even begin live-in care for extra peace of mind.
Carers that really do care in Bexley
From the beginning of our recruitment process, we ensure that we select only the most empathetic and caring individuals to become Helping Hands carers. And because we provide in depth training to all of our private carers, we can guarantee a high level of care to all of our customers.
Our award-winning training covers manual handling, personal care, health and safety, dementia, diversity and equality, medication and finances, and is delivered by our in-house training team. Furthermore, all of our branch managers and carers undergo regular refresher training and are fully supported by us to train in areas of expertise such as dementia or palliative care.
As with any professional care provider, we are closely monitored by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), who put strict guidelines in place to ensure we are providing a safe, effective and proactive service to both our customers and staff. As well this, we work closely with the Dementia Action Alliance to ensure that we are providing the latest and safest dementia practices across our entire service.
