Visiting care and home care in Leicestershire
Leicestershire may be famous for Gary Lineker, Walker's crisps, and red cheese, but there is so much more to this midlands county. DNA profiling was developed at the University of Leicester in the mid-1980s, Blue Peter editor Biddy Baxter - inventor of the iconic Blue Peter badge - was from Leicester, as is the indispensable stationery item Blu Tac.
Across Leicestershire, we offer exceptional care and support tailored to our customers' exact requirements. We don't believe in a 'one size fits all' approach to home care at Helping Hands, instead we offer a wide range of specialist services on both a visiting and live-in basis that are designed to suit the way you like to spend your days. Whether your needs are complex or straightforward we can help – by supporting you with personal care and household tasks, as well as helping you to enjoy your local community. We even offer nurse-managed packages of care for our customers with complex needs, all overseen by our very own team of clinical leads, and all fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales.
