Respite care is designed for those who may need a short-term carer to help them get back to fighting fit. Whether you’re going through a hard time and are struggling with daily tasks, or need someone to stand in for your normal caregiver, we can be there for you. We can help give your lovely caregiver a bit of a well-deserved break with our temporary respite care in Purley. From live-in care for as little as seven days to up to five weeks, we can provide a top-quality carer to help with any needs, including condition-led care such as dementia and elderly care. We’re regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and have over 30 years of experience, so it’s safe to say we know what we’re doing.

When to choose respite care

We know that considering care options can be overwhelming. We also know that Purley boasts 800 years of history and the beautiful Purley Beeches, so why would you want to leave? That’s why we offer our temporary respite care to give help when it’s needed at home. If you’re struggling a bit lately, whether that’s from age or a condition, it can be difficult to manage it all on your own. If you feel you’re not ready to commit to permanent care on a long-term basis, don’t worry! Our bespoke respite care is tailored around you and your needs, no matter how little time you need us. With Helping Hands, you can do just that, and we endeavour to have a qualified carer over to Purley within 24 hours in the case of an emergency.

Respite care services tailored to you

Perhaps you’ve been unfortunate enough to have an accident or have just been discharged from hospital. You might just need an extra hand to help you get back on your feet. Our carers have a genuine passion for helping others. They will help you stick to the routines you enjoy and your normal level of independence. They will even help walk your many dogs if their collars are starting to get a little tight. Our nurse-led care trains our carers to deal with the more medically complex care needs you may have, like ventilation care, nephrostomy care, and medication administration. Our expert carers are what make us special, and they’re here for you in Purley.

Qualified respite carers in Purley

We DBS check our carers and make sure they’re up to the job. Not only are our carers handpicked for their compassion, work ethic and wealth of experience, but they are also specially trained in handling specific conditions. This can range from dementia, stroke, and cancer to palliative and emergency care. We don’t mess around when it comes to care, and we’re here in Purley to prove that. We regularily hear of how our carers and customers are getting on like a house on fire, and this makes all of us at Helping Hands incredibly proud. This way, you won’t only gain a carer in your home, but a companion too. We hope you’ll soon have a new friend to explore Purley and nearby London with.
