Visiting care and home care in Orpington

Orpington is an historic town that was once a small country village surrounded by soft fruit farms, hop fields and orchards, but is now part of Greater London’s borough of Bromley.

Helping Hands are no strangers to a historic past as we’ve been supporting people to live comfortably and independently at home for over 30 years. We offer two different types of home care to our customers, visiting and live-in, depending on your needs and condition. Our visiting carers will come to you at prearranged times as often or as infrequently as you require and carry out your care from a personalised support plan that will contain exactly how you like to be cared for. If you prefer live-in care, one of our carers will reside in your house and provide around the clock care, along with companionship so that you’re never alone in your home.

From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Orpington team can help.

Handpicked carers

We only employ those special people with the right levels of patience, empathy, and compassion to care for you as we'd want our own families to be cared for.

Care that's tailored to you

We know that good care means something different to each of us. That's why we take the time to get to know you and your family to understand your needs and preferences.

Supporting families

When finding care becomes a decision for the wider family, we can help you consider your options. We keep in touch once care is in place so we can adapt care as needs change.

Live-in care in Orpington

With live-in care you get the benefit of a supportive carer being with you all day and night, as well as the superb care that you’d expect from Helping Hands. We will provide a personalised care plan that is suitable for you, after gaining an understanding of your needs, preferences and routines and our fully managed service will ensure that you are always supported to live your life the way you want to, whilst safeguarding your wellbeing at home. Our carers are invaluable when it comes to managing at home and they can also care for you outside of it, taking you to appointments, activities, or days out.

Home care Orpington

Home care from Helping Hands can be as often or infrequent as your needs dictate, and with visits starting from just 30 minutes a week, you can be sure we can support you regardless of your condition. Since we began in 1989, our focus has been to provide outstanding, person-centred care to each and every one of our customers across the whole of England and Wales, which we do for thousands of customers on a daily basis, including personal care, medication support, meal preparation, housework, mobility support and much more.

Better than a care agency in Orpington

Helping Hands is proud to be a home care company rather than an agency, as it means we can give our customers the best care possible in their own homes without burdening them with everything a traditional agency presents, such as  referral fees and other associated costs. With us, once we give you your personalised quote that is the price you’ll pay, without any unpleasant hidden fees when your bill arrives.

Dementia care to support you at home

We’ve been supporting people living with dementia to remain in the home they love for more than 30 years, helping to reduce confusion and anxiety by remaining in familiar surroundings, close to loved ones and precious memories. When selecting dementia care at home for you or your loved ones, you need to be sure that you’re selecting a care provider who has experience with every type of dementia, so talk to us today about providing care within your own home.

Short-term respite care

Sometimes care can be needed in a hurry, for instance if your regular carer is taken ill and has to go home to recover, so who can you turn to in an emergency? With respite care for short or longer-term support, whether in an emergency, or due to routine reasons such as carer breaks or your family going on holiday, you can rely on Helping Hands to support you to your exact preferences.

Elderly care for extra support at home

When you’re struggling with everyday tasks due to age-related frailties, your helpful carer will tackle all those things that you’re finding a little tricky. This might be vacuuming, preparing meals, or personal care, but regardless of how we can help, you’ll be really glad you called us about elderly care.

Fully-trained carers in Orpington

We believe our carers are the best in the industry, because we only select people who share our ethos for delivering the highest quality, person-centred care to work for us. We rigorously train our carers to ensure they can fully support our customers’ needs and we continue their professional development throughout their career with Helping Hands to ensure their skills are constantly refreshed. Our carers are all Disclosure and Barring Service screened before they meet their customers and this, in conjunction with being fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales means that we are the number one choice for home care across England and Wales.
