    Expert home care in Hillingdon

    Since 1989, we have been providing home care to thousands of people in their own homes, enabling them to live the life they want to lead and on their terms. Whether you need occasional weekly visits to help you with your shopping or care calls throughout the day to assist you with personal care, visiting care from our dedicated team covers all aspects of the support you may need.

    We have experience in supporting those with varying levels of need – from those in their more senior years who need a little help with the housework, to those with heath conditions that require specific support such as dementia, Parkinson’s, diabetes or cerebral palsy.

    And because we’re local to you, we can make sure that you receive support from a carer that knows the area and is able to navigate their way around if you fancy going out for the afternoon or need to get to the doctors or the hairdressers.

    Live-in care for round-the-clock support

    If you require more intensive, specialised support but don’t want the hassle and upheaval of leaving the comforts of your own home, live-in care in Hillingdon could be the ideal solution for you. Centred around you and your specific needs, one of our fully-trained carers will live with you in your home to be there whenever you need them, providing you and your family with peace of mind that you have constant support.

    Overseen by a team of experienced clinical nurses, any of our live-in care customers that have more complex needs are fully supported with expert care tailored to your preferences – whether that’s after a stroke, or specialised catheter management.

    The great thing about having a live-in carer is that you receive one-to-one support that’s centred entirely around you, all whilst living within the familiarity of your own home. So, you can get up when you want, eat what you want and spend your afternoons doing the things that you like doing – whether that’s taking in the peaceful surroundings of the Grand Union Canal or heading for the hustle and bustle of the capital.

    Better than a care agency in Hillingdon

    There are big differences between care agencies and care companies. Helping Hands have been a private home care company since they established in 1989. Unlike many care agencies, we’re dedicated to delivering high-quality, consistent care. Their focus is often on adding fees for services that should be included, such as matching you with the right carer, something we would never charge extra for. We also own and manage all of our local branches, because we believe franchising would compromise the consistency and reliability of our service.

    Fully-trained, competent carers in Hillingdon

    One quality that we insist on all of our carers having is empathy – the ability to really care for others with compassion. That’s why we’re extremely proud of every single one of our carers and the way in which they carry out their duties when working for Helping Hands. In addition to this, all of our carers are required to complete our award-winning training programme, which covers manual handling, personal care, dementia, medication, safeguarding and first aid.

    As a nationwide home care provider, we are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), who ensure we are safe, responsive and effective in the care that we offer. Being fully compliant with a governing body for care means that you or a loved one receive care from a company that is closely monitored for the care they provide, their leadership and quality of carers.

    FAQs

    Home care in Hillingdon 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 Hillingdon 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 Hillingdon.

    Home care in Hillingdon 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.
