At Helping Hands, we’ve been supporting people up and down the country to live more independently, comfortably and confidently in the homes that they love since 1989. Our life-changing home care services offer our customers the opportunity to enjoy a better quality of life for longer without having to leave the secure, familiar environment of their own homes.
Respite care is a branch of care that gives you or your loved one access to dedicated one-to-one care at home for a shorter period of time, often at short notice. It’s not always possible to anticipate when you might require respite care – perhaps you’ve experienced a medical setback that’s left you unable to perform your normal chores and routines, or maybe your regular carer is taking a well-earned break and you need someone to cover for them. Whatever your reason for needing respite care, our Great Yarmouth care team will generally be able to provide you with one of our wonderful carers within 24 hours of your initial phone call, meaning you won’t have to stress about where your support will come from.
With over 30 years’ experience in the home care industry, we know how important it is that you’re offered a package of care that is tailored to your unique set of needs, preferences and circumstances. That’s why our care experts in Great Yarmouth will always take the time to properly assess your care requirements and understand the way you like things to be done around the home before offering you a care plan that offers you flexible, holistic support.
Whether you require a greater level of care for a complex medical condition – such as types of dementia or advanced cancer – or could just do with a bit of extra help around the home for a few hours a week, our carers are fully trained to provide empathetic respite care for people with all types of needs.
Needless to say, we’re extremely proud of our fantastic team of carers in Great Yarmouth. All of our carers have been selectively recruited for their compassionate personalities, which make them a perfect fit for our family-centred approach to everything we do. Before they start with us, every new carer is subjected to a number of stringent background checks which allow us to ensure they’ll be the type of person you’d be happy to have visit you at home.
All carers are then enrolled in our award-winning training programme, which we’ve been delivering in-house for over 30 years, and will continue to receive regular refresher training to keep their knowledge and skillset up to date with the latest care industry standards and best practices. Plus, for your added peace of mind, our care services are fully regulated and monitored by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, so you know we’re completely committed to making sure our care services are exceptional across the board.
