Home care in Billericay
Visiting care and home care in Billericay
Boasting a historical link with the famous ‘Mayflower’ voyage as Christopher Martin, the leader of the expedition was known to have lived there, the Essex town of Billericay lies only 25 miles from London, making it an ideal commuter hub. Billericay has been occupied since the Bronze age and over the centuries has had various different occupations lay claim to its name.
History is something that Helping Hands can also boast, as we’ve been providing the highest quality visiting and live-in care since 1989, enabling thousands of our customers to remain as independent as possible within the home they love. Whether you only need a 30 minute check-in to have your lunch prepared or you need several longer calls throughout the day, our visiting care service will support you exactly as you prefer. Alternatively, for around the clock companionship in addition to our usual high standards of care, one of our carers can live in your home with you and ensure that the support you need is always within reach.

Meet the Billericay care team
Branch Care Manager
I joined the care industry around nine years ago, not knowing that it would become a career and a job that I love. I spend a lot of time out in the community visiting customers and potential customers, and assessing our staff to ensure they are always delivering the best care. I spend time with the branch staff looking into ways to better the service and celebrate all the good work that our carers do. I think that Helping Hands are a brilliant company to work for, they have many benefits for their staff, and support networks for staff and customers throughout their journeys with the company. I have recently become a Mum for the first time so like to spend my free time with my son and doing things with him. I enjoy reading and learning and like to think I am generally a person who looks at life positively.

Other care we provide
Expert Home care Billericay to help you
Visiting care from our team in Billericay could involve a half-hour drop-in to prepare your lunch, or several hours at a time depending on your needs. Our carers can also remain with you and assist with overnight care if you are less confident when everyone else is asleep, or if you require support throughout the night. Our carers are some of the best trained in the industry and can help you’re your medication administration, mobility support, personal care, housework & laundry, meal preparation and so much more.
Live-in care to support your needs
With live-in care from Helping Hands you get the best of both worlds. Not only do you receive the highest standards of home care from our outstanding carers but you also get continuous companionship so that you’re never on your own. Live-in care means that a carer resides in your home with you, being available around the clock to deliver care and company whenever you need it.
Better than a care agency in Billericay
Helping Hands is better than an agency as you get the very best care possible from a company who is fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and Care Inspectorate Wales. Traditionally, home care agencies don’t offer the same high standards of care that you’ll get from Helping Hands and worse, they don’t have to be registered, so there is no industry regulator keeping tabs on what they are doing. Unfortunately, this means that there are no rules when it comes to how they treat their customers and carers, which means that what they promise you’ll receive may not actually come to fruition. In addition to industry regulation you get highly trained carers who are directly employed by us, meaning you don’t have to worry about being their ‘employer’ and dealing with the legalities that involves. You just get the best care possible from motivated and compassionate carers who love helping their customers to live their best life possible in their own home.
Billericay dementia care
When you’re living with dementia it can benefit you to remain in your own home, surrounded by personal mementoes and precious memories. This is because as the condition progresses, confusion and anxiety can increase and if you’re in unfamiliar surroundings, such as a care home, it can be even worse. Being able to stay at home, with the same carer every day can bring some stability and comfort into your days and while each day can still have its challenges, being in the place that means the most will help. Whether it’s sitting in the garden that you planted yourself, or taking a walk around your familiar neighbourhood, receiving dementia care in your own home will ensure you get the most out of every day.
