Dementia care in Reading

Thanks to our years of experience in providing high-level dementia care, we have a good understanding of what is required to help our clients who are living with dementia in the most effective ways possible. We now understand that it is important for people living with dementia to be living in comfortable, familiar surroundings, with a strong daily routine – which is not necessarily conducive to living in residential care.

With the home care services in Reading that we provide here at Helping Hands, we are able to ensure that our clients who have been diagnosed with dementia can stay living in the comfort, security, and familiarity of their own home. It also helps them to maintain a degree of independence and control over their lives, helping to preserve feelings of self-worth.

We can arrange for professional clinical, nursing care, provided by our registered nurses, full-time live in care by specially selected live-in care staff, or visiting care – whereby your home is visited as often as you need by our friendly dementia support team – according to your own, specific needs and requirements.

Here at Helping Hands, we aim to make life as safe and comfortable as possible for our clients. We endeavour to keep them as healthy as possible both physically and psychologically and our in-depth understanding of dementia helps us to do this.

Our team of dementia carers in Reading are always available to lend a hand with anything that you need, including:

• Mobility assistance
• Help with washing, dressing, and other personal hygiene
• Clinical care
• Aiding with medication
• Facilitating social interaction
• Attending to domestic duties around the house
• Preparing meals
• Running errands or helping with food shopping
• Companionship

Our person-centred approach means that we completely tailor the support that we give to our clients specifically according to their wants and needs, likes, and dislikes.

We treat every person as an individual and provide our carers with training and 24-hour support, 7 days a week to ensure that they are comfortable themselves and providing the best dementia care that they can to our clients.

Here at Helping Hands, we aim to provide the highest levels of home care that is possible, at all times. We are fully regulated by the CQC (Care Quality Commission) – the body in England that is concerned with ensuring high levels of safe and effective care, and we are also founder members of the UKHCA (United Kingdom Home Care Association).

Helping Hands is considered to be industry leaders in the world of dementia care. We have made it our business to understand the most effective ways to provide dementia care, and we pride ourselves on the fact that we also work closely with leading organisations that represent people who are living with dementia and their carers.

Organisations such as Dementia Action Alliance help us to gain an excellent understanding of the condition, how best to support people living with it and their carers and also contribute from our own experiences in the field.

If you are living in the Reading area and looking for some dementia care, then look no further than our local team. Here at Helping Hands, we try to do the everyday tasks, giving you time and space to enjoy being with your friend or loved one who is living with dementia.
