Respite care in Stowmarket

Temporary support at home when you need some additional help is an excellent way to ensure you have everything you need as you recover. We’ll preserve your dignity and safeguard your wellbeing, while your family enjoy a holiday, your carer takes a break, or you recover from a hospital discharge. You may have had a fall and need some extra help to get you back on your feet, or you may have had an illness that has kept you in bed, but whatever the circumstances we’ll be there as often or infrequently as you need us.

We only deliver person-centred care at Helping Hands, as we feel that you should always be at the heart of the support you receive. We feel that your care should be built around you and that you should be able to live as independently as possible in the home you love, enjoy your local community, or even travel the world! However you wish to spend your time with your temporary carer you should always be able to live the life you wish, so we’ll help you to attend appointments and activities that will get you back to your previous way of life as soon as possible. Your support plan will contain all of the detail about how we’re helping you and will remain flexible so that as your condition improves your plan can be adjusted.

We can’t praise our carers highly enough for the difference they make to our customers’ lives, every single day. We choose only the kindest and most compassionate people to work with us, so it’s no coincidence that they share our passion for delivering only the very highest quality care in our customers’ homes. We build on our carers’ existing experience, equipping them with additional skills and encouraging them to develop their knowledge, and give them opportunities to grow their career if they wish to. We are a desirable employer as we pay above industry average rates, and we also have our own training academy to offer qualifications. This means that we get many applications from potential carers but we’re stringent about who we employ, making sure their references and clearances are impeccable. This also ensures that only people who should be entering your home are doing so, reassuring you and your loved ones.
