Visiting care and home care in Glastonbury

Perhaps most famous for its association with the world-famous music festival, the medieval town of Glastonbury is home to a wealth of fascinating historical sites and buildings – including the iconic Tor. It’s also one of our carers’ favourite places to visit customers, as we never tire of the town’s quirky, offbeat culture and history.

If you’re currently living in or near the town, it’s only natural you’ll want to remain in your family home and continue enjoying the beauty of your surroundings. With dedicated visiting care or live-in care from our expertly-trained carers, we can help you continue living life on your own terms whilst benefitting from personalised, one-to-one support. And, because all of our care services are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission, you and your loved ones can have total peace of mind about the consistent excellence of the service you’ll receive.

    High quality home care in Glastonbury

    When you’re looking for a home care provider, whether for yourself or a loved one, it’s only natural you’ll want to find one that has a proven track record of excellence and champions a customer-centred approach to care. From your very first phone call to our friendly support team, we’ll make sure you’re at the heart of every decision that’s taken regarding your care. Your local care manager in Glastonbury will visit you at home for an initial care assessment, where they’ll take the time to understand any condition-related needs – as well as getting to grips with the way you like things to be done around the home. From there, and for every step of your care journey, we’ll ensure your carers are enabling you to enjoy the best possible quality of life day in, day out.

    24/7 live in care support

    One of the areas of care in which we specialise is live-in care. If you’re at a stage of life where you’re considering moving into residential care, you may wish to consider live-in care instead. At Helping Hands, we firmly believe that home is the best place in which to receive the care you need. Staying at home allows you to maintain as normal a lifestyle as possible, with. Remaining in the familiar home environment can also be beneficial for those living with dementia, as one of the main symptoms of many types of dementia is a heightened sense of confusion – which can be increased with a move into residential care.

    Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Glastonbury

    Helping Hands are a private care provider, which is different from a care agency. With most agencies, you’ll be connected with a third-party carer who isn’t directly paid, managed or sometimes even trained by the agency. Whilst this is normally fine, you won’t be guaranteed the same high standards across the board that you get when you partner with a private care provider. All of our Glastonbury carers are employed by us, which means we handle their salary payments, provide them with a pension and holiday leave, and give them job security. The reason we take this approach is because we believe this allows our carers to focus their energy and time into providing you – the customer – with the very best possible support, rather than having to worry about their career.

    FAQs

    Home care in Glastonbury is professional support provided in your own home, helping you or a loved one stay safe, comfortable and independent without needing to move into residential care. It can be arranged as regular visiting care, occasional support, respite care, or full-time live-in care, depending on your needs.

    With Helping Hands, care is built around your routine, so support can include anything from help getting up in the morning to companionship, meal preparation, medication prompts, mobility support and personal care.

    Home care can include a wide range of practical, personal and emotional support. This may include help with washing, dressing, toileting, medication prompts, preparing meals, light housework, shopping, attending appointments, mobility support and companionship.

    Care can be flexible, from short visits during the week to several visits a day or live-in care. The right level of support will depend on your needs, routines and preferences.

    A carer can help with everyday tasks that have become difficult to manage alone. This might include getting in and out of bed, washing and dressing, preparing meals, moving safely around the home, taking medication, keeping the house tidy, going shopping, attending appointments or simply having someone there for companionship.

    The aim is to provide the right amount of support while helping you maintain independence, dignity and confidence at home.

    The cost of home care in Glastonbury depends on the type and amount of support you need. Helping Hands’ visiting care prices currently start from £32.40 per hour, with visits available from 30 minutes, and live-in care currently starts from £1,675 per week for one person. A call-out or travel charge may also apply.

    Because everyone’s needs are different, the best way to get an accurate price is to arrange a care assessment. This helps create a tailored care plan and a clear breakdown of costs before care begins.

    Home care can be cheaper than a care home, especially if you only need support for part of the day or a few times a week. Age UK says privately arranged home care can cost around £25 per hour, while residential care averages around £949 per week and nursing home care around £1,267 per week, although costs vary by area and needs.

    For people who need round-the-clock support, live-in care may be closer in cost to residential care, but it allows you to remain in your own home, keep familiar routines and receive one-to-one support.

    Yes. Helping Hands states that its service is regulated by the Care Quality Commission, or CQC, in England and the Care Inspectorate Wales, or CIW, in Wales. These regulators monitor care providers to make sure they meet required standards for safety, quality and care delivery.

    Individual branch ratings can vary, so it is always worth checking the relevant local branch profile when arranging care in Glastonbury.

    Home care in Glastonbury can often be arranged quickly, depending on your needs, location and carer availability. In many cases, care can begin within a few days, and urgent support may be possible sooner following an assessment.

    The first step is usually a conversation about your situation, followed by a care assessment and a personalised care plan. This helps make sure the right support is in place from the start.
