    Staying at home with live in care

    More and more people are choosing live-in care in Camden, as opposed to residential care, for themselves or a loved one. Live-in care offers a stress-free resolution for those that require more intensive support but who don’t want to leave to familiarity of their own home.

    A carer will live with you in your home, offering round-the-clock support as and when you require. What’s more, they will get to know you and how you like things done, instead of being prescribed to a strict timetable similar to a nursing home. You’re in complete control of your support plan including when you eat, get up and what you do during the day, keeping everything to your preferences.

    We also have a team of experienced clinical nurses that ensure those with more intricate needs are catered for. So, whether you have a spinal injury, neurological condition or complex health needs, they will select carers with the relevant experience to support you so that you can receive high quality care tailored to your requirements – all within the comfort of your own home.

    Learn about respite care in Camden

    Whether you’re convalescing after a spell in hospital or your regular carer needs to tend to a family emergency, respite care in Camden can often be arranged in as little as 24 hours after your initial enquiry. That way, you can be safe in the knowledge that you or a loved one has the support they need from an experienced carer during what can often be a difficult time.

    We can even accompany you on holiday or to a celebration if you’re worried about going alone or want to allow your family and friends to enjoy the event or holiday with you without having to worry about your care. We’ll be there for the entirety of your stay and accompany you to and from the destination, ensuring you’re safe and cared for.

    Why Helping Hands are better than a care agency in Camden

    For the past 30 years, we have been recruiting and training carers to the very highest standards and we have even been recognised as a Centre of Excellence for our in-house training programme. Our talented instructors take our new recruits through a variety of modules, including manual handling, first aid, dementia, diversity and equality, personal care, medication and finances. And all of our carers undergo regular refreshers training to ensure that are carrying out the latest and safest practice.

    As with any reputable care organisation, we follow the strict guidelines set by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and are regularly inspected to ensure our service is safe, effective and responsive for both our customers and staff. Receiving care from a regulated provider means that you can rest assured that the care you’re receiving is fully vetted and delivered to a high standard.

    FAQs

    Home care in Camden is professional support provided in your own home, helping you or a loved one stay safe, comfortable and independent without needing to move into residential care. It can be arranged as regular visiting care, occasional support, respite care, or full-time live-in care, depending on your needs.

    With Helping Hands, care is built around your routine, so support can include anything from help getting up in the morning to companionship, meal preparation, medication prompts, mobility support and personal care.

    Home care can include a wide range of practical, personal and emotional support. This may include help with washing, dressing, toileting, medication prompts, preparing meals, light housework, shopping, attending appointments, mobility support and companionship.

    Care can be flexible, from short visits during the week to several visits a day or live-in care. The right level of support will depend on your needs, routines and preferences.

    A carer can help with everyday tasks that have become difficult to manage alone. This might include getting in and out of bed, washing and dressing, preparing meals, moving safely around the home, taking medication, keeping the house tidy, going shopping, attending appointments or simply having someone there for companionship.

    The aim is to provide the right amount of support while helping you maintain independence, dignity and confidence at home.

    The cost of home care in Camden depends on the type and amount of support you need. Helping Hands’ visiting care prices currently start from £32.40 per hour, with visits available from 30 minutes, and live-in care currently starts from £1,675 per week for one person. A call-out or travel charge may also apply.

    Because everyone’s needs are different, the best way to get an accurate price is to arrange a care assessment. This helps create a tailored care plan and a clear breakdown of costs before care begins.

    Home care can be cheaper than a care home, especially if you only need support for part of the day or a few times a week. Age UK says privately arranged home care can cost around £25 per hour, while residential care averages around £949 per week and nursing home care around £1,267 per week, although costs vary by area and needs.

    For people who need round-the-clock support, live-in care may be closer in cost to residential care, but it allows you to remain in your own home, keep familiar routines and receive one-to-one support.

    Yes. Helping Hands states that its service is regulated by the Care Quality Commission, or CQC, in England and the Care Inspectorate Wales, or CIW, in Wales. These regulators monitor care providers to make sure they meet required standards for safety, quality and care delivery.

    Individual branch ratings can vary, so it is always worth checking the relevant local branch profile when arranging care in Camden.

    Home care in Camden can often be arranged quickly, depending on your needs, location and carer availability. In many cases, care can begin within a few days, and urgent support may be possible sooner following an assessment.

    The first step is usually a conversation about your situation, followed by a care assessment and a personalised care plan. This helps make sure the right support is in place from the start.
