Meet the St Austell care team
Branch Care Manager
I joined Helping Hands at the beginning of 2023 as the Branch Care Manager for Cornwall. I am responsible for ensuring that our branch delivers safe care, purposeful care, individual care and care with compassion and consideration to our lovely customers and their families and loved ones, including their furry friends. My inspiration for working within the care sector isn't a what but a "who" and that who would be my dear mum. It's impossible to talk about my mum without mentioning just how caring and compassionate a person she is and always has been, I cannot recall a day where mum didn't put everyone else first. In branch we have a wonderful team who, at their heart, each share the core values of care and compassion. I'm often humbled by the kindness of my care team and the thoughtful things that they do to make our customers day that little bit better. I am a proud mum to two fantastic young women, they are strong, hardworking, independent and thoughtful people with an excellent sense of humour. In my spare time you will likely find me outdoors, having a mooch about the countryside, hiking in the rain or relaxing on the beach. If I am indoors then there will be music and I will be dancing and singing, there's always time for dancing but I do apologise about the singing.

Emergency care
-
You can’t always anticipate when you might require additional care, or when your regular carer might become unavailable at short notice. Perhaps you’ve been discharged from hospital a few days early, or your carer has been taken ill and is unable to find cover for you. With emergency care from Helping Hands, we’ll almost always be able to provide you with one of our brilliant carers within 24 hours of your call – ensuring you never feel isolated or unable to perform the tasks and chores that need doing.
-
Private care in St Austell
-
When you choose a private care provider for your home care, you’ll receive a bespoke, personalised care plan that is fully tailored to your specific needs and preferences. This means you’ll have control over many aspects of your care, including things like meals, visits, trips out, bed times and much more. Every detail, big and small, is in your hands.
-
Overnight care
-
Overnight care is one of the main benefits of having a live-in carer. Having a friendly, fully-trained carer stay in your home with you every night means you won’t ever be left feeling isolated or unsupported, and it’ll provide both you and your family with total peace of mind that there’ll always be someone around if you have an accident or if a medical condition takes an unexpected turn for the worse.
