Being diagnosed with dementia can shake your world to its core, however it doesn’t mean that you can’t continue to live well for a long-time post-diagnosis. Your family and friends will be a great comfort to you and will no doubt assist you in continuing to enjoy the social life you have always enjoyed, but if you require some additional assistance with practical or personal care tasks, you want to know that the care company you choose understands your condition.
This is where Helping Hands’ Essex home care team can make a real difference to your life. Our devoted local care teams will provide you with the individualised home care services you require to be comfortable at home, while also allowing your family to take needed breaks.
We’re the UK’s foremost dementia home care specialist, and for over 30 years we’ve supported people living with dementia to live their very best life in the home they love. Our live in care in Essex team are dedicated to supporting our customers with their physical and emotional care needs, such as medication, personal care, meal preparation, housework, and supporting you to safely access the community you love.
We provide visiting care starting at 30 minutes per week and live-in care, where professional caregivers will live in your home and provide care and assistance around the clock.
When we choose carers to join us across Essex we search for compassionate people who share our ethos for providing outstanding dementia care in the county.
We have a rigorous screening programme in place to make sure we only accept people who will put our customers’ needs first, and we ensure every carer has an up-to-date DBS check and thoroughly inspected references before we’ll allow them into your home. We also build on their existing skills and instruct them in how best to support our customers living with dementia, focussing on your needs and putting you at the centre of your care experience.
In addition, because we’re fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales you and your loved ones can always rely on us to provide consistently high standards of care.
Our friendly customer care teams are available seven days a week to talk to you and answer your questions about dementia care. We also have branch teams across Essex who would welcome the chance to chat with you. Contact us today.
Alternatively, you can have a conversation via our website or request a call back for a time that best suits you.
