Visiting care and home care in Highbury

An area of North East London famed for accommodating Arsenal FC, Highbury is an area for which property is highly sought after.

While it is the fictional home of Mr. Bean, in reality, it’s the home of one of the nation’s leading home care providers – Helping Hands. All of our carers are required to complete regular refresher training so that they are always using the latest methods approved by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

From little and often visits from a companion who can help with your daily tasks, to full-time live-in care and clinical support, there is a Helping Hands carer awaiting your call. All our care plans are tailored entirely to you so that the support you receive can change as your requirements do, providing you with a dedicated service that is as flexible as it is competent; with compassion at the forefront of its delivery.

Quality care at home

From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Highbury team can help.

We've been caring for people for decades, helping them maintain their independence and continue to live well in the homes and communities they love.

Branches nationwide

Over 155 branches across the UK means we're local to you.

Fully regulated

Regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, giving you peace of mind that we meet the highest standards of service and care.

Rated Excellent on Trustpilot

Thousands of our customers have shared their experiences of care with us on customer review site Trustpilot with Helping Hands rated 4.7 out of 5.

Handpicked carers

We only employ those special people with the right levels of patience, empathy, and compassion to care for you as we'd want our own families to be cared for.

Care that's tailored to you

We know that good care means something different to each of us. That's why we take the time to get to know you and your family to understand your needs and preferences.

Supporting families

When finding care becomes a decision for the wider family, we can help you consider your options. We keep in touch once care is in place so we can adapt care as needs change.

High quality home care in Highbury

For over 30 years, we have been providing care to thousands of people across the country who require additional support with their health needs, all from the comfort and familiarity of their own home.

Our team in Highbury is no different; their friendly carers and manager will work with you and your family to create a personalised support plan tailored entirely for you. After all, there is no ‘one-size-fits-all' approach at Helping Hands – we make sure that everything is led by you at a pace that you’re comfortable with, so that your care visits are adapted around your routines and preferences.

We understand that it can be a bit daunting at first to welcome new people into your home, especially if they are assisting you with washing, dressing and toileting. Our carers will take everything at your pace, enabling you to live independently, rather than doing everything for you and taking over.

24/7 live in care support

For more complex health care needs such as Parkinson’s, strokes or dementia, live-in care in Highbury can enable you to receive one-to-one, nurse-led care whilst you relax and enjoy the surroundings of your own home that you’ve become accustomed to. We’ll take the time to find the right care for both your physical and emotional needs, matching them with you based on care experience and personality.

If you have clinical needs such as PEG feeding or continence care, we have a team of regional nurses who oversee all of our clinical care packages and provide specialised training for our live-in carers.

Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Highbury

To ensure that we employ only the very best carers, we haver a rigorous assessment and selection process. Right from the get-go, we want to know exactly what our potential carers are like as people, as we only employ those that are kind, compassionate and put others first. Once selected, they take part in mandatory training, which involves acquiring the practical and theoretical skills for manual handling, dementia, first aid, safeguarding, personal care and medication.

Helping Hands is a founding member of the Homecare Association (HCA), who were created in order to share best care practice between organisations. Additionally, we are also members of the Dementia Action Alliance, who unites its members in the most up to date dementia care practices.

We have been providing private care at home for more than 30 years. We have never been a care agency, as we directly employ our care experts and ensure they are fully protected by UK employment regulations. All our carers are trained to provide you with the best care possible. We are always upfront and transparent with how much your care costs, so rest assured you won’t find any hidden fees on your bill.
