Respite care in Stourbridge

Respite care can be necessary for a number of reasons. It could be that your regular carer needs to take some time off, whether planned or unexpected, you have been in hospital and would appreciate some extra support to get you back on your feet, or maybe your family want to take a holiday and want you to go with them. In such circumstances you may need extra help because you want them to be able to relax, so taking a carer with you can ensure everyone gets to enjoy a well-deserved break. Even in an emergency situation, we can help, often having a carer with you in a matter of hours.

Caring for another person is an amazing way to spend time, however, it can understandably be exhausting, both emotionally and physically. Respite care can be necessary to ensure that your carer gets to take the time off that they need to so that they can come back to you refreshed and with renewed energy. Whether it’s for a few days or a few weeks, respite care at home is the obvious choice when you don’t want to have to leave the home you love to receive the care you need.

We offer one-to-one respite care on a visiting or live-in basis. Visiting care will see your carers coming to you as often as you need them, from just 30 minutes per week, whereas live-in care will see a carer living in your home with you for around the clock care and companionship. Regardless of the service you choose, our carers will be able to support you throughout the day and provide overnight care with your medication, mobility, meal preparation, personal care, housework and so much more. We’ll design your bespoke package of care around your routine, requests and requirements, and complete a personalised support plan so you’re always at the centre of your care journey.

Our carers are the centre of our business, the beating heart of Helping Hands. We can be so sure that our carers are the best in the industry because we only select the kindest, most compassionate and empathetic people to join us.
