Visiting care and home care in Cannock
What was formerly a small, rural community until the increase in mining, Cannock is now the largest town on Cannock Chase in Staffordshire. Situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty, Cannock is now home to a dedicated team of carers from one of the leading home care providers in the UK – Helping Hands.
Our carers are available to provide support as little or often as you need. With a weekly visit to help around the house, multiple daily visits to cook meals, or a live-in carer for support around the clock, your Helping Hands carer will be on hand to help as part of a package tailored to you.

Meet the Cannock care team
Regional Care Director
"As Regional Care Director, I’m responsible for overseeing the quality of care delivered throughout our Central and new branches across the country. My aim is to deliver the highest standards of care through tailored, person-centred care plans that offer outcome-focused delivery through dedicated, expertly skilled care teams. "I learnt first-hand how important person-centred care is when my own father was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2014. Throughout his short fight with the disease, I was overawed and enormously grateful to the multidisciplinary teams who worked selflessly to make his last days as comfortable as they could be. This ignited in me just how important bespoke care is."

Other care we provide
Home care Cannock - fitting in with your schedule
We understand that every person’s care requirements are different; that’s why we tailor each visiting care package to suit the individual and their needs and preferences. From calls as short as 30 minutes through to a sitting service that lasts all day or even overnight, we can provide the perfect care plan for you and your needs.
Visiting carers are trained to manage and help with medication, mobility issues, household tasks such as cooking and cleaning, companionship and even complex care needs. Depending on your own personal situation, we can create a personalised care package providing exactly what you need to be able to live your life how you want to.
We fully understand the changeability of care needs. That’s why we offer respite support – be that to cover family emergencies, a hospital discharge or double-up calls to support a live-in carer. If you are the main carer for a relative or loved one and in need of some respite, we can provide short term home care visits to cover your well-deserved break.
Constant peace of mind with live-in care
Live-in care in Cannock is often a great alternative to residential care for those wanting to maintain their independence and stay at home for as long possible. It is a brilliant support method for those needing more continual care, and our live-in carers are able to provide companionship, household support, complex palliative care and everything in between.
Every single one of our live-in carers across Cannock and the rest of the UK have been extensively trained in-house, so we know that our live-in carers are only providing the best level of care.
What’s more, the one-to-one support provided by a live-in carer enables people to keep their social life active and continue with their hobbies, as well as usual day-to-day life and activities. We match up our live-in carers to your needs, interests and personality to make sure your they slot right in to your routine.
The difference between Helping Hands and a care agency in Cannock
Every single one of our local carers has been recruited and trained in-house at our Centre of Excellence, providing them with the skillset they need to carry out impeccable care in your home.
All of our Cannock carers are passionate and dedicated to providing the best possible care, which is why we regularly run refresher courses. Combined with working in the field, this extra training provides them with excellent subject knowledge and the ability to deliver the right care.
We are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), and because we provide a fully managed service – which means we handle the care process from start to finish – we can provide support at every step of the way if there is ever a problem or change in circumstance.
Our company is built around family values and we make sure our staff is well looked after. We have never been a care agency and we directly employ our carers. We provide them with award-winning training, so they can deliver the best possible care. That’s why choosing Helping Hands is a better choice than a care agency. Plus, you won’t be subjected to any hidden costs or unexpected fees – we are always upfront with the care you receive.
Private care Cannock
Helping Hands are a private care provider, which means that we’re able to offer you full control over your care plan from your very first phone call to us. Whether you’d like a particular type of care, you need a certain number of hours a week, or you’d simply like to specify which meals our carers prepare for you, we’re able to be completely flexible around your needs and preferences.
Partnering with a private care provider rather than a care agency also means that you won’t receive any hidden costs or surprise fees – our upfront fees are very transparent and straightforward, and we won’t ask you to handle mountains of unwanted paperwork and administration.
