Branch Care Manager
Since 2012, I've built a rewarding career in care, beginning as an elderly care worker and transitioning to supported living for individuals with learning disabilities. I advanced from team leader to service manager before joining Helping Hands in 2024 as a manager. My time here has been amazing, highlighting the true essence of care. I'm continuously inspired by the incredible carers and feel privileged to make a meaningful impact every day.

Full-time live-in care in Southborough
-
For support around the clock, our live-in care team are on hand to provide a companion matched to your personality, with an understanding of your interests and a commitment to preserving your wellbeing. Whatever difficulties you face in your daily routine, your live-in carer will be on hand, day or night, to provide the assistance you need for maintaining a safe and independent lifestyle at home.
As opposed to the restrictions of a care home, with a live-in carer, you will retain complete control of your routine, while a professional is on hand to assist you with any hassle you encounter. All the while, you will be receiving support from somebody with genuine regard for your welfare and tireless desire to build a friendship.

Domiciliary care in Southborough
-
With domiciliary care, you can receive the support you need to remain at home and maintain your independence. From helping you keep on top of medication, to handling household chores, to accompanying you on days out, your domiciliary carer will be by your side as little or often as you need to upkeep your routine without the need to leave your home.
Unlike a care home, domiciliary care allows you to retain the freedom of keeping control of your routine. With no set meal times or visiting hours, you are able to choose the structure of each day with the help of a professional alongside you to support you with any difficulties. Your domiciliary carer provides more than general assistance and is dedicated to giving you the care you need with a commitment to companionship.

What makes us better than a care agency in Southborough?
-
While we provide carers to the homes of people nationwide, all of them are directly employed by Helping Hands and undertake a commitment to comprehensive training, ongoing professional development and regular monitoring. Unlike a care agency, we receive regulation via the Care Quality Commission (CQC) to ensure our service is of an industry-leading standard.
With no referral fees or hidden costs, you pay only for the care you receive as part of a package that is tailored to you and can change as your needs do. Furthermore, we make it our priority to care for our staff; in doing so, we aim to provide carers who feel valued and motivated in their work, so that the service they provide is the best it can possibly be.

Elderly care in Southborough
-
Whether you struggle keeping on top of housework, getting around the shops, or managing your medication, your elderly carer will be on hand to make all those daily tasks a little easier, while treating you with the respect and compassion you deserve.
Living as a retiree or grandparent is a wonderful period of time in a person’s life; watching your family grow and bestowing your life experience is invaluable for creating memories. For the elderly, this period of life can be bitter-sweet as you become less physically able than your previous years, and caring for your health requires much more attention than it used to. With an elderly carer, you can find a companion who becomes an extension of your family.

For short-term assistance or for an urgent alternative to your usual provider, our respite care team are on hand to deliver the support you need for a time specified by you. When your usual carer takes a break or unforeseen circumstances arrive where you are left without care, you can rely on us to provide the support you need to maintain an independent lifestyle at home.
With a respite carer, you can receive the additional support you need as somebody who has recently been discharged from hospital, needs accompanying on a short break, or has been left without care for a short period of time. Give our team a call to learn more about how we can provide temporary support for your independence at home.
