24/7 live in care support

Live-in care is a personal choice, and the reasons for selecting it will vary from person to person. We create bespoke packages of care that are built around our customers’ personalised needs, while keeping it flexible enough to mould around your changing requirements. Whether your loved ones need a break and are worried about leaving you, or you’re finding your home too empty since the passing of a beloved partner, live-in care is an excellent alternative to having to move into residential care.

Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Stockwell

It matters that we’re not a care agency because agencies don’t employ their carers directly and are frequently not regulated. We, on the other hand, are proud to be a private company that values our carers enough to recruit and employ them ourselves. We’re also fully regulated by the CQC and CIW. Whether you’re living with dementia or another condition, or you’d just like the reassurance that you’re not alone in your home, we’ll supply the peace of mind that you and your loved ones need.

Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Stockwell

Our carers work hard to make sure that their customers live as well as possible. Many of our customers have life-altering conditions such as dementia or cancer; however, we also support people who are living with age-related frailties, require a little additional help with their daily routine. Therefore, our carers are adaptable and knowledgeable, making the most of their training and acquiring additional skills throughout their Helping Hands career, thanks to our in-house training academy.

FAQs

Helping Hands was founded by Mary Lee in 1989 as a way to enable families who needed a little extra support to remain safe and independent at home, and for the last 30 years this is exactly what we have been doing. As a family-run business, we understand the importance of retaining your independence as much as possible, regardless of your condition. This is why the team are here to provide the support you need, when you need it, with no compromise to your day-to-day routine.

You may be living alone and are finding it difficult to go about your household chores, or perhaps you are living with your partner and you’re no longer able to support them like you used to; regardless of your situation, we’re here to help.

Home care needs can arise for a variety of reasons, at any given time and for people of all ages – which is why we work closely with you to establish your individual care needs and create a bespoke support package that gives you the support you need to live your life in the way you want to.

Whether you are looking for 30-minute drop-ins or more regular visits throughout the week, our Kensington & Chelsea home care team can cover any of the following care needs:

  • Home care – If you need support with washing, dressing and incontinence
  • Medication – Offering friendly reminders and helping to administer your medication
  • Routine calls – Supporting you to get in and out of bed safely
  • Mobility support – Providing support for when you need to pop out
  • Companionship – Stopping by for a cup of tea and a chat
  • Household duties – Helping to keep the house clean and tidy including washing up, vacuuming and laundry
  • Health and nutrition – Supporting you to prepare your meals to ensure you’re getting the nutrients you need

Just because you’ve reached a certain age, that doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to change your entire lifestyle. If you’re finding your day-to-day tasks a little more difficult than you used to, agency care from the team is a great way to maintain your usual routine, just with a little extra support. How much does home care cost?

When the need arises for more intensive support, we understand that residential care isn’t always everybody’s preference.

With 850,000 people in the UK living with dementia, the demand for more support and advice has never been higher. And as the UK’s leading dementia care specialists, we understand the importance of providing the right level of care and support to both the individual and their families to enable them to live well following a dementia diagnosis.

Although the time following a diagnosis can be unnerving, we understand the complexities behind the condition and are able to support you with the many varying symptoms and behaviours that can arise. With patience and understanding, we’ll help you and your loved ones through every step of your dementia journey.

As one of the leading home care providers in the UK, we know exactly what it takes to make a great carer – and our team is full of them!
