Home care in Doncaster
Visiting care and home care in Doncaster
Rich in history dating back to the Roman times, Doncaster has lots of surprises in store for anyone visiting the south Yorkshire town. Holding the St Ledger, the oldest horse race in the world that dates back to 1776, and being the home of the UK’s only polar bears at Yorkshire Wildlife Park, there is so much to take in that it will take you several days to see and do everything that this historical town has to offer. And to add to its accolades, Doncaster is now home to one of Helping Hands’ newest branches.
From as little as 30 minutes per week, all the way to around the clock live-in care, our Doncaster home care team is on hand to devise a care plan that works for you. Whether you need some help getting out to the shops or full-time assistance for a complex condition, you can contact a member of our team to begin arranging a visiting care or live-in care package tailored to your needs.

Regional Care Director
As the Regional Care Director for the north, I am responsible for all types of care delivery to our customers - whether it be live-in care or our hourly service. My role involves ensuring that our carers deliver a consistent and seamless high quality of care to our customers. I manage a team of dedicated, hardworking people who strive to deliver a fantastic service. Following a highly successful career in welfare to work, recruitment and training, I wanted to look at a fresh challenge, and following some research and numerous conversations, I believed that the care sector would be a good fit and that I could easily transfer my skills and experience into this role.

Other care we provide
Home Care in Doncaster
Home care in Doncaster doesn’t necessarily mean that you need support with personal care and your mobility – it may just be regular visits throughout the week to assist you with the housework, taking out the bins and getting to and from appointments. Or it may just be someone to sit with you to keep you company, or perhaps take you out for the afternoon to Cusworth Hall or for stroll around Doncaster Market.
We’re very much believers in supporting the individual to achieve what they want to in life so that they can live as independently as possible in a way that is meaningful to them. What we won’t do is take over and do everything for you; we’ll take the lead from you and work with you to create a support plan that is tailored to your needs and preferences.
24/7 Live-in Care Services
For those with more chronic health conditions, you may want to opt for live-in care in Doncaster, where a carer lives with you in your home to provide constant assistance and reassurance to you when you need it most. As well as assisting you with washing, bathing and continence care, your carer will make sure that everything is done just how you like it, so you get up in the morning when you want to and spend the day how you like, rather than having set times to do things.
Why Helping Hands are Better Than a Care Agency in Doncaster
With home care from a private care provider like Helping Hands, rather than a care agency, you’ll get a package of care that is completely tailored to your specific needs and preferences. We pride ourselves on our person-centred care, and we’ll do our utmost to ensure your wishes are always respected. We’ll make sure you have control over smaller details that may still be important to you, such as meal choices and bedtimes, and you’ll be able to see your loved ones as often as you wish and at the times that are most convenient to you. Our wonderful home care Doncaster team are fully trained to identify your support needs and provide you with a care plan that perfectly suits your situation. If you have a medical condition that is likely to progress, we’re also able to adapt your care accordingly.
Expert Dementia Care Services
When creating a dementia care support plan, we keep in mind that the individual and their loved ones need support because dementia doesn’t just affect the individual. When coming to terms with your diagnosis, we can help you to live well with dementia, instead of ‘suffer from’. We’ll assist you with keeping to your routines and helping you with friendly reminders such as remembering to wear a coat if you’re going for a walk or keeping hydrated throughout the day. And as you progress into the later stages of dementia, we can start to provide round-the-clock support in the form of dementia care, giving all of you peace of mind that your loved one has regular assistance and is able to live safely in their own home.
