Other care we provide
Home care in Guildford to suit your routine
Home care from one of our local carers based in Guildford can be ideal if you need some additional support. You might be recovering from an operation or need some help with getting around the house.
Whether you just need someone to pop in first thing in the morning to help you out of bed or extra support going about your daily routine, our visiting carers can assist with:
Personal care- making sure you’re comfortable and respecting your privacy
Medication management- reminding you to take any tablets you need and helping with swallowing
Complex care- managing catheters and stomas, and helping with transfers or mobility aids.
Because your home is also your private space, our carers will also ensure that it is kept in pristine condition by carrying out light household duties. We’ll even help to take care of any pets you have – after all, they’re part of the family as well!
24/7 live in care support
Over time, you might find that you need care on a more regular basis or help during the night. Or, you might have a relative who is at risk of falls and you want someone to be there to make sure they’re safe.
Live-in care in Guildford also allows you to have a supportive companion to help you get around your local community. And if you have a particular hobby or interest, or just want to spend an afternoon with loved ones, your live-in carer will take care of everything for you.
Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Guildford
At Helping Hands we’ve spent over 30 years caring for our customers at home, so you can be reassured that we’re experts in what we do. Our Guildford carers are also so dedicated to their customers and part of that is because we only select the best people to come and work for us.
We have such high standards because we’re not a traditional care agency and we never have been – we were founded as a private home care company in 1989 and have remained so ever since.
Over the decades we’ve cared for thousands of people who wanted to remain in the home they love rather than go into residential care, and because we employ our carers directly and offer such good pay, conditions and perks, you get highly motivated carers coming to your home who ensure you get to live your best life possible there. We always want our carers to feel valued for the amazing work they do, and this recognition is reflected in the excellent care they deliver to our customers every day.
