Respite Care in Leicester

Respite care at home means you’ll be supported by expert carers who will cover every task you need undertaking, such as personal care, mobility support, medication administration or housework. Whether you have a carer visiting you at regular pre-planned times or a carer living in your home with you, the care given will be of the highest possible standard, as we pride ourselves on only selecting the most compassionate and professional people to become Helping Hands carers. Staying in your own home to be cared for rather than having to uproot and relocate to a residential home, even temporarily, will ensure a continuity of care for you and also reduce disruption to your routines. Therefore, both your physical and emotional wellbeing will be supported by receiving care in your own home from the friendly home care Leicester team.

Continuity of care is very important if your carer has to go away temporarily or you’re being discharged from hospital. Having a carer support you in your own home is highly beneficial to your routines and preferences. The benefits of one-to-one care mean that you get up and go to bed when you want and have your meals when you say, keeping you in complete control of your care experience.

Leicester post-discharge support

If you’re being discharged from hospital and you are concerned that you won’t be able to manage on your own, after hospital care can see a carer support you in your own home, for as long as you need until you’re back on your feet again.

Emergency care across Leicester

Arranging care in an emergency can be daunting for family members, especially if they live quite far away, and it can be a nerve-wracking time trying to decide what to do for the best. Should they put their lives on hold and try to support you themselves, or better still, arrange some respite care that will be flexible to your ongoing needs?
