Respite care in Washington
Washington respite support from Helping Hands
When you’re looking for some temporary care and support at home, respite care is a great option to keep you living as independently as possible in the home you love. Traditionally it was presumed that respite care meant leaving your home and going into residential care temporarily, but why go through the upheaval when respite care at home in Washington can come to you? Helping Hands have been delivering the very highest standards of care in our customers’ homes since 1989, and with support available on both a visiting and live-in basis, all fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and the Care Inspectorate Wales, what’s not to love?

When to choose respite care
You may have been discharged from hospital, living with the after-effects of an illness or accident, or perhaps you already have a carer, but they need to take some time off. Whatever your circumstances, Helping Hands can come to you intermittently if that suits you best, or we can offer live-in care where one of our carers actually lives in your home with you.
Respite care services tailored to you
You’re always at the centre of your care experience with Helping Hands. We believe that your care should always be built around you, you should never have to compromise how you want to live your life. Our packages of care are personalised to how our customers wish to spend their days, whether it’s being comfortable at home and enjoying the garden, to making the most of your local community and enjoying being out and about. Our carers won’t just help you with the practical tasks such as personal care, medication management, and housework either, they’ll accompany you to appointments and activities, or just take you to the local café for a cuppa.
Qualified respite carers in Washington
We employ incredible people at Helping Hands and treat them really well, believing that happy and motivated carers lead to happy customers. We’re very particular about the people who join us and take our recruitment very seriously, handling it all ourselves in-house as we don’t want to leave such an important task to anyone else. We want your respite carer to become a friend and be a real addition to your home, whether you need them for a few days or months. We insist on personal qualities of compassion and kindness in everyone who joins us, and we check their references carefully to ensure that they should be in your home. We also have our own training academy at Helping Hands which ensures that all of our carers can build on their existing experience and gain the skills they need to fully support their customers. We’re proud of how many carers stay with us to build their careers too, and many of our managers began as carers which is a testament to the culture we work hard to build.
