Elderly care in Lancashire

As we get older, it’s only natural that we’ll start to experience a bit of frailty, lose some of our mobility and generally find it more difficult to do as much as we once used to. However, even just a few weekly hours of extra support from a friendly carer can help you to maintain your independence and continue to live life to the fullest. It’s important not to view care as something that will change the way you live, but rather as a vehicle for supporting your normal way of life. In fact, one of the reasons we’re called Helping Hands is because we’re here to help you live the life you wish to lead, rather than simply plonking you in a chair and making a fuss over you.

When you partner with our Lancashire carers for home care, you’ll get a package of support that is fully tailored around you, your needs and your wishes. Your local care manager will come to visit you at home and have an initial conversation about what you’re looking for from us, what areas of daily life you might need help in, and any conditions you might be living with that may require specialist attention – either now or further down the line. From there, we’ll help draw up a care plan that focuses on your short-term and long-term wellbeing, both physically and mentally, so that you’re able to enjoy the best possible quality of life for as long as you can.

We’re extremely proud of our brilliant carers providing dedicated home care across Lancashire. At Helping Hands, we’re firm believers that a care service can only ever be as exceptional as the carers providing it, which is why we have such stringent processes in place for recruiting, vetting and training our carers. We only hire people who are passionate about their roles and who share our company-wide values of compassion and kindness, and every new carer undergoes rigorous background checks to ensure they’re suitable for us and for you. Then, when they start, all of our carers are provided with our comprehensive carer training, and will continue to participate in additional training courses on a regular basis.

If you’d like to find out more about our care offerings across Lancashire, please give our friendly customer support team a call today. They’re available seven days a week, and will always be happy to answer any queries you may have and help schedule a visit from your local care manager in Lancashire.
