Visiting care and home care in Oxfordshire

We specialise in offering bespoke, tailored live-in home care across Oxfordshire, including Banbury, Bicester, Chipping Norton, Henley-on-Thames, Oxford, Witney and many more towns in the county.

We are closely monitored by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), an official body that inspects all care providers to ensure they are safe, responsive and effective. Being regulated by an official organisation that makes sure fundamental standards are adhered to means that you are guaranteed to receive care of the utmost quality.

We are also recognised members of Spinal Injury Association (SIA) and the United Kingdom Acquired Brain Injury Forum (UKABIF), who both work to promote awareness and best practice for their respective conditions.

High Quality Home Care In Oxfordshire

Home care is a great option if you need someone to pop in and make sure you’re okay from time to time, or if you require regular calls throughout the day to support you with personal care, preparing meals and light housework.

Whether you’re in your early twenties and need extra help to attend get-togethers with your friends or if you’re in your more senior years and struggle with your mobility, we’ll find the right level of care for you that adheres to all of your needs and requirements.

Although we don’t currently have a visiting care branch in Oxfordshire, our sister branches in Aylesbury and Evesham & the Cotswolds are on hand to discuss your care needs and will be happy to help.

24/7 live in care support

Here at Helping Hands, we have been providing live-in care in Oxfordshire to people in their homes for the last 30 years, so we really do know what it takes to deliver the very best in person-centred care. Whether you’re living with Parkinson’s, cerebral palsy or a complex neurological condition, our friendly live-in carers will cater for all of your needs, both physically and emotionally, so that you have everything you need in the comfort of your own home.

Live-in care is just that – when someone comes to live in your home with you so that you have round-the-clock support whenever you need it. It might be that you need help to administer medication at regular intervals throughout the day and night, or you might need assistance to get in and out of bed with a standing aid. Whatever your care needs are, we can create a personalised care plan centred entirely around you so that every little thing unique to you is catered for.

We also recognise that live-in care doesn’t just mean that your physical needs are taken care of; your live-in carer will get to know you and what you like to spend your time doing. So, if you have a love for exotic animals, your carer could take you to Cotswold Wildlife Park or if you have a passion for history, they could accompany you to the beautiful Blenheim Palace for the afternoon. If you prefer to stay more local, then that’s fine too; they will take your lead in what you want to do.

Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Oxfordshire

It can be quite daunting welcoming someone new to come and live in your home with you and take care of you. We’ll work with you to hand-pick the perfect carer for you that is not only experienced in your particular condition or needs, but who has similar interests and personality traits to you.

All of our live-in carers are trained at our Centre of Excellence training facility in Warwickshire, where they learn the key skills in order to provide the highest level of person-centred care. Modules cover manual handling, medication, personal care, first aid and safeguarding, and all of our carers are required to complete regular refresher training to ensure they always up-to-date in the latest caregiving practices.

FAQs

Home care in Oxfordshire is professional support provided in your own home, helping you or a loved one stay safe, comfortable and independent without needing to move into residential care. It can be arranged as regular visiting care, occasional support, respite care, or full-time live-in care, depending on your needs.

With Helping Hands, care is built around your routine, so support can include anything from help getting up in the morning to companionship, meal preparation, medication prompts, mobility support and personal care.

Home care can include a wide range of practical, personal and emotional support. This may include help with washing, dressing, toileting, medication prompts, preparing meals, light housework, shopping, attending appointments, mobility support and companionship.

Care can be flexible, from short visits during the week to several visits a day or live-in care. The right level of support will depend on your needs, routines and preferences.

A carer can help with everyday tasks that have become difficult to manage alone. This might include getting in and out of bed, washing and dressing, preparing meals, moving safely around the home, taking medication, keeping the house tidy, going shopping, attending appointments or simply having someone there for companionship.

The aim is to provide the right amount of support while helping you maintain independence, dignity and confidence at home.

The cost of home care in Oxfordshire depends on the type and amount of support you need. Helping Hands’ visiting care prices currently start from £32.40 per hour, with visits available from 30 minutes, and live-in care currently starts from £1,675 per week for one person. A call-out or travel charge may also apply.

Because everyone’s needs are different, the best way to get an accurate price is to arrange a care assessment. This helps create a tailored care plan and a clear breakdown of costs before care begins.

Home care can be cheaper than a care home, especially if you only need support for part of the day or a few times a week. Age UK says privately arranged home care can cost around £25 per hour, while residential care averages around £949 per week and nursing home care around £1,267 per week, although costs vary by area and needs.

For people who need round-the-clock support, live-in care may be closer in cost to residential care, but it allows you to remain in your own home, keep familiar routines and receive one-to-one support.

Yes. Helping Hands states that its service is regulated by the Care Quality Commission, or CQC, in England and the Care Inspectorate Wales, or CIW, in Wales. These regulators monitor care providers to make sure they meet required standards for safety, quality and care delivery.

Individual branch ratings can vary, so it is always worth checking the relevant local branch profile when arranging care in Oxfordshire.

Home care in Oxfordshire can often be arranged quickly, depending on your needs, location and carer availability. In many cases, care can begin within a few days, and urgent support may be possible sooner following an assessment.

The first step is usually a conversation about your situation, followed by a care assessment and a personalised care plan. This helps make sure the right support is in place from the start.
