Remaining part of the local community and preserving your independence is incredibly important to us, that’s why here at Helping Hands we’re delighted to provide bespoke care plans while you remain in the comfort of your home.
“Hi, I’m Adam and as Regional Care Director, I’m responsible for making sure that all the customers we help day-in day-out across the South West and South Wales are looked after brilliantly. In order to do this, we need to have the very best carers and support teams there for them so that they can thrive within Helping Hands and do what they do best: care."
“I think we do everything possible to really understand our customers’ needs and then do everything possible to find the right carer for them. Our carers do a wonderful job, and they are special people who are ‘hardwired’ to care.”
For over 30 years, we've been supporting people with care, nurse-supported care and companionship across England and Wales. As industry-leaders in home care, we know what it takes to provide the right level of care so that you can retain your independence in the comfort of your beloved home.

Although a fully managed care provider like Helping Hands Southampton and a care agency both provide care to you in the comfort of your own home, there are several key differences between the two services. The first being the way in which your carers are managed; with Helping Hands, we take care of all aspects of recruitment, training, paperwork and pay that your your carers receive, as well as arranging replacements if your carer becomes unwell or wants to take annual leave. Whereas a care agency service would introduce you to a carer but step back once you have made a formal agreement with them, leaving you and your family to ensure they have the right credentials, manage their pay and find someone or have a family member step in if your carer is unavailable.
And if something isn’t quite right or you need to increase the amount of support you receive, we have a dedicated local care manager in Southampton who will be there to support both you and your carers, giving you peace of mind that all of your requirements are being taken care of.
Also known as care at home, domiciliary care is an ideal option for those wanting occasional support at home. Whether it’s help preparing breakfast in the morning or more personal care throughout the day, our Southampton team will ensure you receive the right level of care you need, whenever you need it.
As we reach the later stages in life, daily tasks can unfortunately become more difficult. You might just need a regular friendly face to gossip with, or a helping hand getting in to bed at night. Nonetheless, the team can provide you with tailored elderly care for as long as you need it.
There’s no need to feel guilty about going on holiday; with a bespoke respite care plan, you can rest assured your usual routine will be followed to a T by a friendly and professional carer.
You might be returning home after a short stay in hospital, or your loved one has been admitted and you’re home alone. We understand circumstances can change unexpectedly, that’s why we’re on hand to provide last-minute support when you need it most.
The Southampton team are available to provide fast and reliable care, covering:
When you choose a private care package, you’ll get a service that truly puts you at the centre. From the moment you get in touch with our brilliant team of carers in Southampton, you’ll be in control of the care plan that you receive. Whether you need visiting care a few times a week or a live-in carer to provide 24/7 assistance to you in your home, private care from Helping Hands is completely tailored to your personal requirements and preferences. And, unlike a residential nursing home, you won’t have set meal times, pre-determined visiting hours and restrictive bed times.
Each of our carers go through an extensive award-winning training programme, covering a wide range of modules including manual handling, safeguarding, equality & diversity and dementia care. With ongoing training, our carers are always up to date with knowledge and practices.
As the only home care provider endorsed as a Centre of Excellence, as well as being fully licensed by the CQC, our recruitment process is very stringent. We’re proud to employ only the very best carers, so you and your family always have peace of mind.
If you’d like to discuss your need further, please contact the team. Or, if you’d rather meet in person, our branch is open seven days a week.
We understand transport and mobility can be an issue, so we’re happy to meet you at a time and place which suits you best, whether it’s in your conservatory or the local café.
