Home care in Warrington

As the name suggests, live-in care in Warrington is when a carer will live with you in your home to be there whenever you need them. Even if you require support to take medication during the night or need to be safely moved regularly to avoid pressure sores, a dedicated live-in carer chosen by you will be there to negate any worries and ensure that you’re taken care of.

With support from an expert clinical nurse team, we are also able to assist with more complex conditions such as neurological, spinal injuries, and stoma care.

As a private care provider, Helping Hands are better than a care agency because we do our utmost to ensure our carers’ well-being is prioritised – allowing them to focus their time and energy towards providing our customers with exceptional care. Unlike most agencies, we employ our carers directly. This gives them job security, a strong sense of self-worth and peace of mind about receiving their wages in a timely manner. It also means that our customers don’t get burdened with heaps of time-consuming paperwork, as agencies will often insist that you personally handle payments to your carers.

Traditionally known as care at home, domiciliary care comes with a whole host of benefits – including being cared for where you feel at your most comfortable. It might be that you just need a bit of extra help around the house because your mobility isn’t what it used to be, or you need someone to pop in to help you administer your daily medication. Whatever it is, we’ll create a bespoke package of care centred around you.

And it’s not just you or your loved one that we care for. Even if you have a beloved pet or are living with a partner, we’ll provide support throughout your home and ensure your canine companion always has his tail wagging!

Being recognised as one of the nation’s leading dementia home care specialists means that we don’t just support you with the practical elements that comes with the condition, but we can enable you to live well with dementia – both physically and mentally.

We understand how unsettling it can be to get to grips with the symptoms of dementia, particularly if the condition progresses quickly. With all of our carers being trained in dementia, we can help to alleviate anxiety and worry felt by you or your loved ones by providing only the very best in dementia care.

Part of getting older doesn’t mean that you lose your independence or have to move to a nursing home. We believe that all of our customers should have the choice to do what they want, when they want – regardless or age or any additional needs. The team offer exceptional care for the elderly and will ensure that you can do just that, even if you do find things a bit more difficult in your senior years.

Loneliness is also another factor that can cause difficulty for the elderly. With visiting or live-in care from the Warrington team, loneliness is something that we can support you with because our carers aren’t just there to provide practical assistance; they’re there to be a companion too.

For full-time carers, respite is vital to ensure you get the chance to have some rest and recuperation. With respite care from the Warrington team, we can ensure that your loved one will be cared for in the way that you would deliver their care without having to compromise on quality or sentiment.

It’s not just a break for a regular caregiver that we provide respite care for; it’s also suitable for:

• Couples – Allows time for you to have a rest while your partner is still cared for
• Family holidays – We can accompany you and your family so you all have a holiday
• Short break – We’ll also come with you if you want to take a break without family
• Hospital discharge – Extra assistance to come home after a hospital stay
• One-off occasions – Support to attend special events such as a wedding or birthday party

As the first and only home care provider to be recognised as a Centre of Excellence by Skills for Care, we can ensure that all of our carers only receive the very best training. Covering modules such as manual handling, health & safety, first aid, safeguarding and dementia, our carers are only trained in-house by our team of experts.

Not using any external agencies also means that we can carry out our own vigorous background checks including the Disclosure Barring Service (DBS), and monitor the calibre of carers that we employ. Of the amount of people that apply to work for us, only 2% actually pass all of our checks and become carers, meaning we never forgo quality or expertise.

To ensure we meet with the very highest of standards, all aspects of our service are inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) to ensure we are adhering to strict guidelines and regulations.
