Meet the Newcastle care team

Branch Care Manager
At Helping Hands Newcastle I am responsible for overseeing all day to day activities including; managaing the office team and care staff, ensuring our lovely customers receive the highest standard of care and looking after the business side of things! It is difficult to explain 'what inspired me to join care' as it is has been a part of who am since I could stand on my own two feet! I was a young carer growing up, supporting my father with complex physical care needs. I volunteered as a young person for multiple caring organisations like Age UK & Teesside Hospice whilst I completed my education, before starting my professional career in domiciliary care. I believe in what we do at Helping Hands, as I see first hand every day the difference you can make in someone's life by supporting them to stay safely in their own home. After all, there is no place like it! In my spare time you will often catch me in a local coffee shop for breakfast, spending time in the parks or at the beach or relaxing at home with my cat - Mr Steven.

Other care we provide

Home care in Newcastle
Whether you are looking for one visit a week or three calls a day our qualified carers will be able to provide home care in Newcastle that suits exactly what you are looking for. Your carer or companion will be able to support you with personal care, medication support, house work and complex nursing care for more complex conditions.
As we age general tasks and household chores can become more difficult, but that doesn’t mean your independence should be affected.
You might need a helping hand with the laundry once a week, or support getting in and out of bed, nonetheless, our team of expert carers are only a phone call away. Tailored around you and your needs, our bespoke care plans are designed around not only your care needs, but your personality and interests too. You’ll gain more than a carer, you’ll gain a friend.
If your care needs change and you need to alter your care routine that’s no problem at all. Our visiting home care service is entirely flexible ensuring you get the exact level of care that you need.

Live in care - for total peace of mind
Live-in care in Newcastle is a great option for those who are needing higher level care or more continuous support in the comfort of their own home. It is a great alternative to residential care as it allows you to maintain your independence and make your own choices-no matter how big or small.
Dementia care at home can help you to keep your usual routine, maintain familiarity, and limit any disruption-all of which are important in maintaining wellbeing, especially for those with dementia. We understand that dementia is a condition which affects entire families, not just those who have been diagnosed. For this reason, we have a team of dementia specialists who will happily speak with you about the dementia care we can provide in Newcastle.
We take the time to match a suitable live-in carer to you, based on your needs as well as your personality and interests, this way you can be reassured that your carer will be a great match to you.
Every live-in care package is tailored exactly to your needs and can be altered to accommodate any changes in circumstance.

The difference between Helping Hands and a care agency in Newcastle
We do our utmost to ensure paying for your care is as straightforward as possible. As a home care provider, rather than an agency, we directly employ all our carers, which means that you won’t be subjected to any hidden fees, surprise costs or time-consuming paperwork. It also means that our carers are aware of how much we value them and are able to dedicate their time and energy to providing you with the exceptional care that you deserve – rather than worrying about chasing payslips or spending precious time doing fiddly administration.
Every carer that works for Helping Hands has been recruited and trained in house which is what ensures your continuity of carer. Training and support is provided for our carers at regular intervals, or if a complex care package has specific needs.

Respite Care Newcastle - short term care support
The Newcastle branch can provide respite support to suit any temporary needs. They can provide as little as one day if that is all you need, or up to four weeks if your care needs are not enduring.
Respite care can be great for:
- Hospital discharge – If you need a few weeks of support following an operation or illness respite care is a great option.
- Holidays – Respite care is convenient for support whilst you are on holiday, or if you need care for a loved one who will be remaining at home during your time away.
- One off occasions – Family parties, weddings and university graduations are all events which might need a single day of support. You can have a carer who will travel with you and provide support throughout the entire day.
