Visiting care and home care in Chislehurst

Chislehurst has many interesting features, not least the Chislehurst caves. Originally used to mine flint and chalk, during World War II they were used nightly as an air-raid shelter. Over the years, live music has been played in the caves, with big names like Jimi Hendrix, the Rolling Stones, and David Bowie playing there.

While we’ve grown massively since we began in 1989, we’ve never lost sight of our original ethos at Helping Hands and with our visiting and live-in services expertly delivered by amazing carers, we could be making a difference to your life every day too.

    Home care Chislehurst

    With our visiting care service, you can have the option of a 30-minute visit once a week or several longer calls throughout the day, as we’ll tailor your package of care to your personal wants and needs. Your dedicated carers will be able to undertake every aspect of your daily routine for you, whether it’s housework, personal care, meal preparation, medication, mobility or so much more.

    Choosing live-in care will see one of our amazing carers living in your home with you and being there around the clock for all your care needs and companionship wants. Whether you have highly complex care needs or milder requirements, your carer will be able to support you with housework, personal care, laundry and so much more that will see you living your most independent life possible in the home you love.

    Better than a care agency in Chislehurst

    We’re better than a home care agency because we have always had the highest standards of care, just as you’d expect from a private home care company. We employ our carers directly and would never insist on self-employment, meaning they are free to concentrate on your care as their number one priority, rather than worrying about completing tax returns or similar.

    Domiciliary care at home

    Domiciliary care, or care at home, is something we’ve been delivering for over 30 years, so you can imagine we are expert in it by now. We offer a comprehensive visiting and live-in service, both of which are designed especially for you depending on your care needs and requirements and are supported by your personalised support plan which will detail exactly how you like things done.

    Experienced dementia care

    When diagnosed with dementia there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to your care, as you are still an individual and are not defined by the condition. Consequently, you need a dementia specialist home care company who understand dementia care and have over 30 years’ experience in supporting customers to live as independently as possible with dementia, in the home they love most. We can help to explain your options for care in the home you love, when the time comes.

    Respite care for emergency cover

    Thanks to respite care from Helping Hands you can remain in the home you love for any type of short-term care requirements you may have, such as if your regular carer takes a break, your family are on holiday or you’re recovering from an illness or accident. Don’t go into residential care when you’re reluctant to do so, as even in an emergency we can help, getting care to you within 24 hours as a rule.

    Elderly care for extra support

    When you’re finding that household tasks are becoming more difficult than they used to, why not choose some elderly care from Helping Hands? Our amazing carers will come to your home and support you with every aspect of your daily routine including personal care, housework such as vacuuming and laundry, meal preparation, medication, and supporting you to access the community for shopping and activities if you’d like.

    FAQs

    Home care in Chislehurst 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 Chislehurst 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 Chislehurst.

    Home care in Chislehurst 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.
