Home care in Oldbury
Visiting care and home care in Oldbury
Oldbury’s place name comes from ‘Ealdenbyrig’, Eald being Anglo-Saxon for ‘old’ and a burh being a fortification; ‘byrig’ being the plural of burh. Consequently, this means that 1000 years ago Oldbury was considered old, so its rich history is without question.
Helping Hands also has a rich history, and while it doesn’t date back 1000 years yet, we do have over three decades of experience providing visiting and live-in care for our customers. Our visiting service can start from just 30 minutes a week meaning that we really can design a care package for everyone.

Better than a care agency in Oldbury
-
Our fully regulated and managed home care service means we’re better than a care agency in so many ways. Due to directly employing our carers and therefore protecting them from the worry of self-employment paperwork, our carers feel valued and therefore highly motivated to ensure that your well-being is always their priority. Due to us having over 30 years of experience in the industry, we really are the specialist home care company you can trust.

Dementia care tailored to your needs
-
Even though you may not need care right away after a dementia diagnosis, it’s natural that questions can start to arise about long-term care and who is going to support you as your condition progresses. Our dedicated and empathetic dementia carers can help you to live your best life with dementia, thanks to our unique understanding of the different types, gained from our 30 plus years of dementia experience. Remaining at home in the place you love most for dementia care can make such a huge difference to your day-to-day life, as confusion and anxiety can be reduced in familiar surroundings.
