    High quality home care in Consett

    At Helping Hands, we know that every individual’s care journey and needs are unique to them. That’s why we’ll always take the time to get to know your specific needs and wishes, and will work alongside you to ensure we’re providing you with the right type and level of support at all times. We believe that a person-centred approach to care is the most effective way to you to live life at your own pace and on your own terms, and that this is best achieved at home with dedicated, personalised support.

    24/7 live in care support

    If you or a loved one are at a stage where you’d benefit from having one-to-one support throughout the day and overnight, you may wish to consider live-in care from Helping Hands’ Consett team. Live-in care gives you one-to-one support with all the routines and chores you need help with – whether that’s toileting, bathing, housework, meals, laundry, gardening, shopping, or just about anything else! We’ll help match you with a live-in carer who shares your personality and interests, so that you’ve got a valued, trusted companion as well as someone to provide physical and practical assistance.

    Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Consett

    Being a private care provider, rather than a care agency, means that at Helping Hands we employ and pay our carers directly and take full responsibility for their general well-being. Often care agencies will require customers to pay their carers directly. This results in all sorts of unexpected and unwanted fees and paperwork that can often become time-consuming and stressful. With home care from Helping Hands, we take care of all the fiddly admin and we make sure our carers are always well looked after, ensuring that they’re able to focus on providing you or your loved one with the best possible care.

    Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Consett

    We’re extremely proud of our brilliant team of carers in Consett – they truly are wonderful at what they do, and are passionate about ensuring every customer receives the exceptional home care they deserve. All of our carers have been selectively recruited for their kind, compassionate personalities, as we believe these are essential characteristics for a carer, and have been subjected to rigorous background checks before starting with us. Then, when they join, every carer receives our industry-leading training, and will continue to participate in regular refresher courses so that their knowledge and skills are always up to date with the latest best practices.
