Home care in Ilkeston
Visiting care and live in care in Ilkeston
Ilkeston has history going back to the 6th century AD and appears in the Domesday Book as Tilchestune. Created a borough by Queen Victoria in 1887, Ilkeston was home to the Stanton Ironworks, one of the biggest and most important local employers, which ran from the 1780s until its closure in 2007, although evidence had been found of ironworking being carried out in the area since Roman times.
Whilst our history isn’t anywhere near as far-reaching, Helping hands has achieved enormous success since we were founded in 18989, supporting over 40,000 customers to remain in the home they love, thanks to our visiting and live-in care services, with visiting care starting rom just 30 minutes a week.
Quality care at home
From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Ilkeston 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.
Over 155 branches across the UK means we're local to you.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
