Personal Care Southampton

What is personal care?

If you find you need extra support during your daily life, maybe with getting up and dressed in the morning or staying on top of your hygiene, our carers can offer excellent personal care that tailors directly to your needs.

The difference between personal care and companionship care in Southampton

We're very proud of our companionship care at Helping Hands, with our carers making a huge difference to the lives of our customers. They're always becoming part of the family and are going above and beyond regularly to make sure they're doing everything they can to become a trusted friend to you, not just your carer.

Types of personal care support available in Southampton

Our personal care can help with anything from general hygiene, getting you up and dressed in the morning, taking care of your toileting and making sure you always look and feel your best. We know that personal care may feel awkward at times, but our carers have many years' experience with looking after the intimate needs of those under their care, so we'll do all we can to make you feel comfortable and at ease.

Who is personal care in Southampton suitable for?

Whether you are getting older and slowing down a little in your elderly years or you're living with a disability, reduced mobility, or long-term condition, our personal care can be there for you to help you look after yourself when you need it most. Helping Hands care about your independence and how you can continue living life comfortably whilst receiving care.

Conditions and needs we support through personal care in Southampton

Our personal care services can support people who also require condition-led care, which can support those with dementia, Parkinson’s disease, disabilities and long-term health conditions. If you require more complex clinical support, nursing care may be a more suitable option, which can help with PEG feeding, medication administration, catheter and stoma care, amongst much more.

Personal care at home vs. a residential care setting

With personal care at home, you can receive professional support without having to leave the place you know and love, and enjoy the familiarity and comfort of your own home in Southampton.
