High-quality care in Tonbridge from Helping Hands
Tonbridge is thought to be named after the ‘town of bridges’ due to the large number of streams originally running through the High Street. Being a lovely market town with a thriving population, we know it can be hard to consider leaving to access good healthcare. That’s why at Helping Hands, we bring care to you in your home. We offer excellent live-in, visiting and respite care that is tailored to you and your unique needs. We’re regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), so we’re always updated on the newest care practices. With over 150 branches across the UK and over 35 years of experience, we’ve seen a lot and perfected our approach to healthcare.

When to choose live-in care
Live-in care is perfect for you if you need full-time, around-the-clock care. We can help with anything from general housekeeping, preparing delicious and healthy meals, and running those errands you may struggle with nowadays. We endeavour to become part of the furniture and a trustworthy helping hand whenever you need us. We can also help with personal care like dressing, grooming, bathing, and continence care. With your preferences at heart, we can help create a daily routine that maintains a healthy and happy lifestyle. This can include light exercises if you have limited mobility or help with getting out and about in the Tonbridge community so you can continue living life the way you love.

Expert care tailored to your needs
We’re healthcare experts; we always put 110% effort into what we do. While our carers are superb at being a must-have help with the day-to-day tasks, they’re also trained on more medically complex needs. Our nursing care can provide support with stoma and catheter care, ventilation care, NIPPY and PEG feeding, and much more. We can keep an eye on your medication and help administer it, watch out for any signs of decline, and even offer specialised elderly care that can incorporate age-related difficulties into our care approach. We also provide condition-led care which can support dementia, cancer, Parkinson’s and more. We know it’s not a ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to care and that’s why we endeavour to tailor your care plan around you. We get to know you and your condition so that we can work together to get the best care possible.

Qualified carers providing live-in care in Tonbridge
Our carers are DBS-checked and come with a bucketload of qualifications, training, and experience. They all possess a genuine passion for helping others and are friendly and compassionate people. We’re always hearing stories about how our carers are getting on with our customers and are now the best of friends, as we try to handpick our live-in carers to match your personality and interests. We hope soon you’ll be showing off the local Tonbridge Castle and talking about Tunbridge Ware with your new trusted companion before you know it.
If you have more questions about how live-in care can help you, then feel free to contact us over the phone or via our seven-day-a-week Live Chat on our website. We try to be here for you as much as possible and no question remains unanswered. That’s why we also welcome you to visit one of our local branches for a face-to-face chat about our care. Our friendly staff will be happy to share a chat and a cup of tea and discuss what you’re looking for and how we can help. We hope that you’ll leave us assured that Helping Hands is the best option for your healthcare at home in Tonbridge.

FAQs
Live-in care means a trained Helping Hands carer lives in your own Tonbridge home and supports you around the clock with daily tasks, personal care, medication and companionship. It is a one-to-one alternative to a care home that lets you stay in familiar surroundings.
It suits people in Tonbridge who need regular or 24-hour support but want to stay at home, including older people, couples who want to stay together, and people living with dementia, limited mobility or a long-term condition.
Your carer supports personal care, washing and dressing, medication, meal preparation, mobility, housekeeping, getting out and about, and companionship. Care is built around your routine rather than a fixed shift pattern.
Live-in care is charged weekly and depends on the level of support you need. Tonbridge live-in care starts from £1,675 per week for one person, or £2,125 per week for a couple. We give a clear written quote after a free care assessment, with no hidden fees.
