Home care in Smithfield
Visiting care and home care in Smithfield
Smithfield is famous for its historical value and many major events happening in the streets during the Middle Ages, such as Wat Tyler’s rebellion. Smithfield Central Market has always been a bustling centre of trade and is still alive and thriving today. Not only is Smithfield home to St Bartholomew’s Hospital, but it is also home to the UK’s leading home care provider – Helping Hands.

Branch Care Manager
I am responsible for ensuring the service is safe and fully compliant with all legal regulations and am accountable for the overall leadership of the service. I line manage a team of a Care Coordinator, and two Care & Training Practitioners, and ensure our carers are managed effectively. I am responsible for business development for my branch and ensuring the service is viable by working with key stakeholders within the business and reviewing our business and marketing plans. I volunteered at a day centre for adults with learning difficulties in my late teens and decided then that I wanted a career supporting people to live a fulfilling life. I feel proud of the service we provide and the carers we have are all very reliable and enjoy the work that they do. I love to read and I love to travel, as well as enjoying spending time with friends and family.

Other care we provide
High-quality home care in Smithfield
Our expertly trained carers come with a wealth of experience and passion. They can offer support with mobility, housekeeping and creating a daily routine centred around you and your needs. They’re not too shabby at baking Victoria Sponge’s either, which is an added perk. If you require a bit more of a medically trained eye, our bespoke nursing care can help with medication administration, PEG feeding, stoma, catheter care, and other complex medical needs. We’ve been around since 1989, so there’s nothing we haven’t dealt with before; we’re experts after all!
24/7 live-in care support
With our live-in care, we offer around-the-clock support. Our condition-led support can help with a variety of conditions such as dementia, strokes, cancer, and Parkinson’s. Whatever your condition, we can tailor a care package that suits you and your needs. With a live-in carer, you’ll be looked after at any time of the day or night. Rest assured; you’ll be in safe hands – literally. If you want to hear more about our live-in care, feel free to contact us over the phone or via our seven-day-a-week Live Chat. Or why not visit one of our branches for an in-person chat about your care options in Smithfield?
