Cirencester

From as little as 30 minutes per week, our visiting care support packages are created with you at the centre. Whether you need support to get in and around Cirencester or you need regular personal care, we’ll ensure your support plan contains everything you need so that you can remain living in the place you know and love; your home.

Visiting home care is also a great way to receive support little and often, but still have the freedom of living where you want to and how you want to. You don’t necessarily need to have personal care or assistance with taking medication to arrange visiting care – your care plan can be whatever you want it to be. So, if you’re in your thirties and need support visiting friends due to a congential condition that limits your mobility, we can accompany you to meet up with them. Or if you’re in your seventies and struggle to make your own meals after an operation or health condition, we’ll pop in and make sure you have something tasty to eat.

Live-in care is a direct alternative to residential care or a nursing home. Not only does it allow you to stay in the comfortable surroundings of your own home, but it also gives you one-to-one support from a carer that will get to know you and your preferences.

Living with you in your home, we ensure that all of our customers are very much involved in the process of selecting the right carer for them, not just in care experience but also in personality. So, if you have Parkinson’s but enjoy afternoons out at the beautifully kept Cirencester Park, we’ll find a carer that is able to support you with your physical needs but who also has an interest in landscapes and walking.

Additionally, our live-in carers that care for those with more complex health needs are supported by a team of expert clinicians, who will ensure that all of your requirements are met appropriately. So, whether you have a catheter, stoma, tracheotomy or require PEG tube feeding, you can rest assured that your needs can be catered for with live-in care.

With more and more people developing dementia, we understand how important it is to create the right level of care for anyone living with the condition who may need extra support. To ensure that you get the very best dementia care, all of our carers are given detailed dementia training which includes the different types of dementia, the effects of the condition and the most effective way to provide support.

We are also members of the Dementia Action Alliance, who promote the latest and safest practices in dementia care throughout the UK. Along with the knowledge we have built up since our inception in 1989, these different elements enable us to support both your family and loved one who is living with the condition with the most appropriate care that is individual to them. What’s more, we want to enable as many people as possible that have dementia to live at home where they feel safe and comfortable.

With over 30 years’ experience, we have the skills, knowledge and expertise to provide all-round training for our new and existing carers. And we’re not the only ones who think so; our in-house training programme has been recognised as by Skills for Care as a Centre of Excellence. As well as our award-winning training, all of our carers complete full background checks, including a Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) screening, so that you can have the utmost confidence in the person that is coming to your home to care for you.

All personal care services are provided by our Care Quality Commission (CQC) registered office Helping Hands Cheltenham & Gloucester. Having a governing body regulate our service ensures we are delivering a safe and effective service whilst building trust between us and the many people we care for each day.
