Since 1989, we’ve been helping customers across England and Wales to live independently, comfortably and securely in the familiar surroundings of their own homes through our dedicated home care services. One of the care services in which we specialise is respite care, which gives you the opportunity to receive dedicated one-to-one care from our highly trained carers at the times you most need it.
If you find yourself needing home care on a short-term basis, respite care might be the perfect option for you. Perhaps you’re currently being cared for by a family member or close friend, but would like to give them a well-earned break from their responsibilities.
Or maybe you fancy a holiday or a weekend away and need someone to accompany you. With respite care from our Kingswinford care team, we’re normally able to provide you with one of our brilliant carers within 24 hours of your initial phone call, meaning you can enjoy all the things you want to enjoy without worrying about being left isolated or unsupported.
One of the main benefits of receiving respite care at home is that you’ll have control over what your care plan looks like. Maybe you’re accustomed to your regular carer doing things in a certain way around your home, or perhaps you’re living with a medical condition that has its own unique set of care needs. Our carers in Kingswinford will make sure they fully understand your needs and preferences so that they can offer you a package of respite care that gives you exactly the type and level of support that you require.
We want to make sure our carers continue to be the very best in the industry, which is why we’re so particular about who we recruit to our care teams. We only ever hire people who display the natural empathy and kindness required to be a great carer, and we perform numerous background checks on everyone before they join Helping Hands.
We also make sure our carers are fully prepared to provide expert care to people living with a wide range of conditions and care needs by providing them with our award-winning in-house training which includes modules on manual handling and lifting, medication, dementia care, health and safety and so much more. And, for your added reassurance, the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales regulate all of our care services every step of the way, so you can have total confidence in our commitment to excellence.
