The level of care you or a loved one receives is entirely up to your needs and preferences. Some of our customers opt for shorter weekly visits (from as little as 30 minutes a week) while others have more complex needs and choose full-time live-in care. Life doesn’t always go to plan, and sometimes you need help swiftly, which is why we also provide a quick start or emergency service for those situations when support is needed urgently.
The home care in Oldham services our team provide range from assisting with mobility, helping run errands, organising medications, sorting out practical home tasks, meals, and arranging medications and clinical care. Our staff come from all walks of life but are all fully trained and passionate about providing at-home care that gives you peace of mind and the comfort of being supported in your own home.
Elderly care
Our Helping Hands carers are not just professionals when it comes to personal care tasks like assisting mobility, helping with housework, errands and shopping, and medication. We believe that care is all about getting to know you personally so that we understand how best to support your wellbeing, on all levels.
Helping Hands carers can offer support for elderly people, or those with mobility issues or dementia. Whether it’s facilitating washing and dressing or simply being there occasionally for a friendly chat and a cup of tea, our carers are committed to giving you a sense of control and confidence over your daily life again.
Domiciliary care
Domiciliary care is essentially home care provided right where a person feels most comfortable – in their own home. Visits can be short, or we can arrange to have full-time carers spend more time per week, including overnight visits. Whatever your needs, you’ll receive care tailored to your unique situation, and compassionate individual care and attention. Our carers take their time to work around your schedule, helping you get on with the daily activities of life.
For those who are independent enough to not require the services of a care home, domiciliary care supports a better quality of life and the ability to carry on with daily activities and household tasks. All of this is done in familiar surroundings, while respecting established routines and habits. Carers are also there to provide companionship, friendly chats, comfort, reassurance and a feeling of safety.
Helping Hands is an expert in elderly and domiciliary home care, and our carers have been held in high regard for more than 30 years. Our carers have been extensively trained, and are passionate about the work they do to make people’s lives better, day in and day out. Every one of our carers has undergone a thorough background check and has an up-to-date Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) certificate.
We’re consistently rated highly by our customers, with testimonials that speak of the personal touch we try to bring to each and every visit. All personal care services are provided by our Care Quality Commission (CQC) registered office Helping Hands West Manchester. This means we are routinely monitored for safety, quality and efficacy to maintain our high standards of care. We’re also proud to be the only company in the UK to be rated as a Centre of Excellence for our training programme, guaranteeing our customers a level of care they can trust.
No two people are the same, and neither should the care they receive be. If you’re considering seeking home care, or just have a question, please get in touch with one of our customer care advisors. We’d be more than happy to have a chat about exactly what we can offer you, and what your various care options are.
