    Home care in Lancashire

    Home care is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to residential care, as it provides an option where you can keep living in your own home whilst received expert one-to-one support from fully-trained carers.

    Home care can be a great option for anyone who would benefit from a bit of extra support – whether that’s having a visiting carer a few times a week, or a live-in carer who stays with you around the clock.

    Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Lancashire

    We’re confident that our carers are the very best in the industry, because we only recruit the very best candidates to our care teams. We’re very specific about the type of person we hire – we want to make sure they’ll be a perfect fit for us and for you, so we make sure all new carers possess the natural empathy and compassion needed for a care-based role, and are fully committed to providing genuinely life-changing care.

    Every carer receives our superb carer training when they start at Helping Hands, which includes modules such as lifting and moving, first aid, dementia care and health safety, and will continue to participate in regular refresher courses which keep them up to date with the latest care industry standards and best practices.

    FAQs

    Home care in Lancashire 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 Lancashire 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 Lancashire.

    Home care in Lancashire 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.
