Visiting care and home care Skelmersdale

If you’re looking for exceptional care at home in Skelmersdale, then you need to talk to Helping Hands. Our visiting and live-in care is exceptional, supporting people to live well at home and as independently as possible. Our carers are compassionate and caring and they’ll help you with every aspect of your daily routine, such as personal care, housework, laundry, meal preparation and medication.

Despite being a new town, Skelmersdale does have historic roots, even appearing in the Domesday Book of 1086. If your mobility allows, your carer will also help you to get out of the house more, enabling you to make the most of West Lancashire and reduce the risk of social isolation.

Quality care at home

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

We've been caring for people for decades, helping them maintain their independence and continue to live well in the homes and communities they love.

Branches nationwide

Over 155 branches across the UK means we're local to you.

Fully regulated

Regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, giving you peace of mind that we meet the highest standards of service and care.

Rated Excellent on Trustpilot

Thousands of our customers have shared their experiences of care with us on customer review site Trustpilot with Helping Hands rated 4.7 out of 5.

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.

High quality home care in Skelmersdale

We’re not like other home care providers at Helping Hands. Our premium service is delivered by the very best carers who have compassion at heart. We understand how much your home means to you, whether you’ve lived there for decades or recently moved. We’ll always work within the boundaries of your daily routine and follow your care plan to the letter, making sure that you get to live your days the way you want to.

24/7 live in care support

Live-in care takes things a step further, meaning you’ll never be alone at home, day and night. This offers the highest levels of reassurance for both you and your loved ones that you’ll be supported around the clock. We support people with the highest levels of clinical needs, with nurse-managed packages that enable people to continue living at home, to lower-level, age-related frailties requiring a little support. Whatever your circumstances, we’ll be there for you.

Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Skelmersdale

We’ve never been a care agency, and that matters. That’s because care agencies operate differently to private care companies. Care agencies expect their carers to be self-employed, or worse, they require the person needing care to organise their employment. This isn’t what you should be burdened with when you need care! Helping Hands select, train, and employ all of our carers directly, meaning they get looked after as well as they look after you.

Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Skelmersdale

We’re fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission, and we’ve been established since 1989. This means you can trust us to deliver the highest quality home care, as we really do know what we’re doing. We’ve grown over the decades to encompass 155 branches across England and Wales, and a significant presence in Lancashire. We choose our carers carefully and we look for natural qualities of compassion and kindness over experience. We then equip them with all the practical skills they’ll need throughout their Helping Hands career.
