Visiting care and home care in Thatcham

Thatcham has strong evidence of having been inhabited since prehistoric times and had an entry in the Guinness Book of Records as the oldest continuously inhabited place in Britain. Many historic remains have been unearthed there, and there is evidence of a long and notable history all over the area.

We also have a long and notable history at Helping Hands, having been established in 1989 and caring for thousands of customers since then. Our visiting and live-in services will see one of our compassionate carers come to you in your own home and take care of all your care requirements, so why not chat to us today about how we could support you?

Home care in Thatcham

You may need a little support with housework and meal preparation, or perhaps you have complex care needs that necessitate several visits throughout the day and overnight, but no matter what you require, our visiting care service can provide it. With our 30 years of expertise and our experienced and compassionate carers coming to take you to appointments, activities, or on days out, we really can support you in every way you need. We can also undertake all your personal care, medication, and so much more, so if you need care at home, we’re the ones to call.

Live-in care in Thatcham

Live-in care can be just as valuable whether you would like around-the-clock companionship, you’re living with complex needs that would benefit from the supervision of one of our clinical nurses, or anything in between. You may be concerned that your only option is going into a care home, but live-in care is a cost-effective alternative that sees your carer live with you all day and night. Their in-depth knowledge about your condition and the fact that you’ll never be alone at home will be a great comfort to both you and your loved ones, so why not talk to us today?

Better than a care agency in Thatcham

We offer our customers the best care possible within their own homes because we are not a home care agency; we are a company with over 30 years of experience in caring for our customers in their own homes, and we directly employ our carers to ensure they are protected by all applicable employment regulations. We believe we offer the best care possible to our customers in their own homes because our carers are compassionate and experienced and go above and beyond for their customers.

Dementia care at home

Our over 30 years of experience as dementia care specialists means that we really know dementia and can make a real difference to the lives of our customers living with a form of the condition, such as Alzheimer’s, vascular or Lewy Body. When you first receive a diagnosis, it can turn your world upside down, with care at home from Helping Hands, enabling you to remain in familiar surroundings, confusion and anxiety can be reduced. This is because staying close to loved ones, surrounded by precious memories, can really make a difference to your quality of life.

Tailored respite care

If your regular carers need to take a well-earned break or if you’re in need of emergency care, we can help. Short-term respite care from Helping Hands can make all the difference to your daily life if you’re not keen on uprooting to a residential home, even temporarily. Our friendly carers will come to you and undertake all of your care needs so that you’ll feel like your regular carer never left, and thanks to your personalised support plan, your routines and preferences will be respected and followed at all times. We can even get care to you within 24 hours when it’s necessary.

Elderly care for extra help at home

If you would appreciate some help with aspects of your daily life, such as personal care, laundry, housework or meal preparation, talk to us about elderly care today. Our carers can support you if you’re struggling with everyday tasks due to age-related frailties, painful joints or general fatigue, and we can make it easier for you to remain in the home you love and not have to consider moving somewhere with additional support. You can stay independently living for as long as you want to with the support of our compassionate carers.
