When you’ve been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, you need easy, no-fuss support arranged quickly and to your specifications, and that’s where Helping Hands come in. We’ve been helping people to remain living comfortably in their own homes since we were established in 1989, so it’s no surprise we’re the UK’s most trusted Alzheimer’s care at home in Bristol provider. Whether you need us for an hour a week to take you to an appointment or for around-the-clock live-in care in Bristol, we’ll be on hand with our home care services, all of which are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and the Care Inspectorate Wales.
Being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease may have come as a shock to you and your loved ones, or it may even have been a blessed relief after months of uncertainty. Despite feeling that you’re managing quite well at home, it is still important to take the time to talk about what measures you’d like in place for when things aren’t so easy. This ensures that you get the type of support you need further along your dementia journey when it may be more difficult for you to express your preferences.
Our dementia care is like no other home care provider’s because we focus on the whole person at all times. Alzheimer’s doesn’t define who you are; you’re still the same person, and we work tirelessly to ensure that person is as independent as possible in the home they love. Remaining in comfortable and familiar surroundings can make such a difference in the life of someone with Alzheimer’s, helping to reduce anxiety and focus on the happy life they’ve spent there, and we’ll make sure that your support plan always reflects that.
Our carers are amazing at what they do; they put our customers first every day and ensure that they live as well as possible with Alzheimer’s. They support them inside and outside of the house with essential tasks, going to appointments, or simply keeping them company. Because of this, we value our carers highly, too and offer them opportunities to build on their knowledge via our in-house training academy, which can then be applied to their role. We also offer qualifications for those who feel ready, and we promote from within whenever we can.
