    We firmly believe that home is the best place to receive the care you need, and that our personalised approach gives you not only great value for money, but also ensures you’re always receiving the right type and level of care for your circumstances.

    24/7 live in care support

    Live-in care from our wonderful Chorley team provides you with one of our superb, expertly-trained live-in carers who will come to live with you in your home and offer 24/7 support. Live-in care is a great option for those who need a bit more support than visiting care offers, and are perhaps considering moving into residential care but would prefer to remain at home. We’ll match you with a carer who shares your personality and interests so that you’ll really enjoy their company, and every aspect of your support will be fine-tuned to suit your personal needs and wishes.

    Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Chorley

    Helping Hands are a private home care provider, rather than a care agency. This means that we employ our carers directly, allowing them to use their time and energy by giving you the very best possible care in your home. Often, care agencies will ask you to handle payments to your carer, and will give you care plans that involve a number of unexpected fees and costs. We’re completely transparent about all of our prices and what our live-in care service entails, and we won’t burden you with mountains of paperwork or confusing admin. We want your care journey to be as straightforward and stress-free as possible.

    FAQs

    Home care in Chorley 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 Chorley 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 Chorley.

    Home care in Chorley 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.
