Dementia care services tailored to you
By remaining in your home for care, you will benefit from being in a familiar place, which can help reduce the anxiety or confusion that accompanies unfamiliar surroundings. Another benefit is being able to remain living with loved ones and having precious pets with you all the time. Helping Hands offer visiting care and live in care, ensuring that you always remain at the centre of your care journey.
We’ll design the perfect care package for you that will cover every aspect of your needs and routine, so whether you need support with medication, meal preparation, personal care or more, we’ll be able to help. Visiting care begins from just 30 minutes per week, whereas our live-in care service will provide around-the-clock companionship in addition to your care needs.
