Meet the Northampton care team
Branch Care Manager
Hello, I am Dawn, the Branch Manager of the Northampton Helping Hands Office. It is my responsibilty to oversee and set up care packages in the local area, and to ensure that our team is delivering the very best care at all times. This ensures that our customers remain safe and independant in their own homes. It is important to me and my team that we provide tailored care packages to suit our customer needs and develop a strong working relationship between our team and our customers. My passion for working in the industry began 14 years ago when my mum was diagnosed with Dementia at the age of 55. My mum remained at home for a number of years whilst being cared for by my dad and the rest of our family. Being at home represented a feeling of safety, comfort and ease. Its a place where my mum could be herself and feel relaxed.

Live-in care to support you in Northampton

With live-in care in Northampton, you receive round-the-clock support to ensure that you can continue to feel safe in your home.

The great thing about live-in care is that you have the freedom to choose how to live your life.

So, whether you like to complete crossword puzzles in your living room or take a walk around Pitsford Reservoir, you won’t just have a carer to support you there – you’ll have a friend to enjoy it with.

Better than a care agency in Northampton
-
When you choose care from Helping Hands, you’ll be partnering with a private care provider, rather than a care agency. This matters because the majority of care agencies don’t fully support their carers – for instance, they won’t directly employ them or prioritise their wellbeing. At Helping Hands, we always make sure our carers are fully trained and always well looked after. Care agencies are also often unaccountable to regulators, meaning you can never be completely assured that you’ll receive the level of care you require.
We employ our carers directly, provide them with award-winning training as well as regular refresher courses, and ensure they’re always mentally and physically prepared to provide you with exceptional care.

Domiciliary care in Northampton
-
Otherwise known as care at home, domiciliary care from our Northampton team gives you and your family the peace of mind that you have the support you need in the comfort of your own home. When the need arises for more intensive support, residential care isn’t always everybody’s first option, which is why domiciliary care from our team is the ideal solution to ensuring that you have the care you need without having to leave the place you feel most comfortable.
With you at the heart of our service, we will work closely with you and your loved ones to ensure that the care you receive is built entirely around your needs. Whether you need 30 minutes a day or regular overnight stays, you have the freedom to decide the frequency and intensity of your care to ensure that you have everything you need to bring peace of mind to you and your loved ones.

Specialist dementia care and support for you and your loved ones
-
We understand that the time following a dementia diagnosis can bring lots of anxieties and uncertainties. With hundreds of different variants of dementia, learning to understand the condition while coming to terms with either your or your loved one’s diagnosis can be unnerving for all involved. That’s why our team are here to inform, advise and support you through every step of your dementia journey.
As one of the leading dementia care specialists in the UK, our carers are here to help you to understand the situation surrounding you and your family, as well as offering guidance on support on how you can continue to communicate and enjoy your time together. With specialist care from our Northampton team, it’s so much more than just practical support; we help you to remember the person underneath the dementia.

Elderly care to retain your independence

Respite care for as long as you need it
-
We understand that care needs can often be unpredictable. Sometimes the need for care can arise so quickly that finding an alternative seems almost impossible – but with respite care from our Northampton team, we can often put a bespoke care package in place within 24 hours of your initial enquiry.
Whether your usual caregiver is going on holiday, you’re recovering from an unexpected illness or injury or you’re due to be discharged from hospital and don’t feel confident on your own just yet; the team are here to give you the support you need, for as long as you need it.
