Home care in Shepshed
Visiting care and home care in Shepshed
Shepshed is derived from the name ‘Sheepstead’ after the town’s fame from its historic and successful wool trade. Nowadays, it’s a quaint little town nestled in Leicestershire, surrounded by some beautiful hotspots like Bradgate Park, Whatton House and the National Trust’s Calke Abbey. If Shepshed is home to you, it can be hard to consider leaving and thinking about care homes.

With us, you can be safe in the knowledge that your needs will be looked after whilst remaining in the place you love most – home.

Branch Care Manager
I have been with Helping Hands for two years now, it has certainly been a roller coaster. Coming from a dentistry background I have learnt so much regarding the care sector, and still have so much to learn. During my time with Helping Hands I can see why we do what we do. I’m proud to be part of Helping Hands and I'm proud of what my branch and my team have achieved.

High-quality home care in Shepshed
We’re proud of how high-quality our care is and how satisfied our customers are. With over 150 branches around the UK and over 35 years of experience, we’re perfecting our home care every day. We offer live-in, visiting and respite care to suit you and your unique needs. Whether that’s someone to take care of the housekeeping, grocery shopping and meal preparation, we can be there. Or perhaps you’re looking for someone to aid your more complex medical needs, like stoma and catheter care, ventilation care and NIPPY and PEG feeding. In this case, our nursing care can handle that with a top-quality carer to assist you.

24/7 live-in care support
Live-in care is designed to be an around-the-clock, tailored care plan that will adapt to number one – you! Our carers are great at looking after those chores you may struggle with nowadays and can handle more complex condition-led care like dementia or Parkinson’s. We handpick our live-in carers to match you and your personality, meaning we endeavour to help find you a new companion. While they’re experts at healthcare and compassionate support, our carers are the most friendly and comforting people out there. We hope you’ll be showing off Whatton House with your new trusted friend from Helping Hands before you know it.

Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Shepshed
We’re better than anyone else out there for one simple reason – we care the most! We understand it’s not a ‘one size fits all’ approach to health care, and we will take the time to understand what your expectations are and how we can meet them. If you need support to enjoy your current stage of life, we offer elderly care which goes above and beyond to help you get the best out of life. Whether that’s mobility support, help with medication administration or simply creating a daily routine, we can help in Shepshed. We offer a variety of different care packages, such as end-of-life care or respite care (if what you’re after is a helping hand temporarily).

Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Shepshed
We DBS check our carers to make sure they’re the best people for the job. Qualified, trained, and experienced, we often hear how our carers have become assets within a home and family. In addition to this, everyone at Helping Hands wants you to feel comforted and assured of what we can offer you. If you have any questions regarding how we can help you in Shepshed, then please contact us over the phone or via our seven-day-a-week Live Chat. Or, if you prefer the face-to-face approach, why not pop into one of our branches for a chat about it all?
