Expert dementia care for you and your loved ones

The time following a dementia diagnosis can be extremely upsetting for you and your loved ones.

Elderly care to support your independence

Some of the inevitable signs of ageing are that our bodies become a little more fragile and our minds aren’t as quick as they once were. If you are finding more difficulty in your elderly years but moving into a residential home doesn’t feel appropriate for you, elderly care from the team enables you to continue with the life you want to lead – just with a little help along the way.

Whether you are living with a progressive condition such as Parkinson’s and require more regular support around the house and out in your local community, or you are living alone and would simply like someone to pop in for a cup of tea and a chat, our Exeter team will be there for you in any way you need them to be.

Delivered on a short-term basis, we’ll ensure a seamless transition between carers and we will carefully follow your usual plans and routines to ensure consistency for you or your loved ones. Whether you are due to be discharged from hospital but don’t feel comfortable without the regular support you’re used to, or you’d like to go on holiday but you don’t feel like you are able to go alone, we’ll be there for you for as long as you need us.

Award-winning training for our Exeter carers

Each of our carers are committed to providing outstanding care to each of our customers, and they are enabled to do so by completing a comprehensive training course that covers manual handling, safeguarding, health and safety and medication administration. But with their expert training and professional experience aside, our carers are able to provide such fantastic service to our customers for one simple reason: they are all naturally wonderful people.

Here at Helping Hands, we are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). We ensure that each of our carers receive full background checks – such as Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) screenings – prior to employment, which means that you and your loved ones can rest assured that you have a carer that has been carefully chosen by our managers and is fully committed to providing you with great care.

And with 30 years’ experience under our belt, we’re proud to be the only home care provider to be endorsed as a Centre of Excellence by Skills for Care.
