    High quality home care in Wellington

    Our premium service offers visiting and live-in care, delivered by compassionate, professional carers. They’ll support you to live as independently as possible, with support designed to your specifications and a care plan that represents how you wish to live. We’re considered the home care experts because we’ve been providing consistently high standards of care at home since 1989. It’s no surprise we’re the UK’s most trusted provider.

    24/7 live in care support

    Why you choose live-in care will be personal to you. Some people want a companion living in their home because it feels too empty since the loss of a partner. Others are concerned that they’re not managing their routine and don’t like being in the house alone at night. Whatever reason you choose live-in care, be assured that you’ll have compassionate support with every aspect of your routine around the clock.

    Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Wellington

    We’ve never been a care agency but you may wonder why this matters. It matters because agencies aren’t scrutinised or regulated to the same standards that Helping Hands are, so it’s important to check that you’re in the best hands. We also don’t sell franchises, unlike other care companies, which means we can maintain consistent standards throughout our network of 155 branches across England and Wales.

    Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Wellington

    We’re so proud of what our carers achieve every single day of the year. They support thousands of people across the UK to live as well as possible in the homes they love, and it’s impossible to put a price on that. We support our carers as well as they support you though, with bespoke training, qualifications, and above-average industry pay rates. We also provide paid holidays and a pension scheme, so they’ll always be motivated to make a difference.

    FAQs

    Home care in Wellington is professional support provided in your own home, helping you or a loved one stay safe, comfortable and independent without needing to move into residential care. It can be arranged as regular visiting care, occasional support, respite care, or full-time live-in care, depending on your needs.

    With Helping Hands, care is built around your routine, so support can include anything from help getting up in the morning to companionship, meal preparation, medication prompts, mobility support and personal care.

    Home care can include a wide range of practical, personal and emotional support. This may include help with washing, dressing, toileting, medication prompts, preparing meals, light housework, shopping, attending appointments, mobility support and companionship.

    Care can be flexible, from short visits during the week to several visits a day or live-in care. The right level of support will depend on your needs, routines and preferences.

    A carer can help with everyday tasks that have become difficult to manage alone. This might include getting in and out of bed, washing and dressing, preparing meals, moving safely around the home, taking medication, keeping the house tidy, going shopping, attending appointments or simply having someone there for companionship.

    The aim is to provide the right amount of support while helping you maintain independence, dignity and confidence at home.

    The cost of home care in Wellington depends on the type and amount of support you need. Helping Hands’ visiting care prices currently start from £32.40 per hour, with visits available from 30 minutes, and live-in care currently starts from £1,675 per week for one person. A call-out or travel charge may also apply.

    Because everyone’s needs are different, the best way to get an accurate price is to arrange a care assessment. This helps create a tailored care plan and a clear breakdown of costs before care begins.

    Home care can be cheaper than a care home, especially if you only need support for part of the day or a few times a week. Age UK says privately arranged home care can cost around £25 per hour, while residential care averages around £949 per week and nursing home care around £1,267 per week, although costs vary by area and needs.

    For people who need round-the-clock support, live-in care may be closer in cost to residential care, but it allows you to remain in your own home, keep familiar routines and receive one-to-one support.

    Yes. Helping Hands states that its service is regulated by the Care Quality Commission, or CQC, in England and the Care Inspectorate Wales, or CIW, in Wales. These regulators monitor care providers to make sure they meet required standards for safety, quality and care delivery.

    Individual branch ratings can vary, so it is always worth checking the relevant local branch profile when arranging care in Wellington.

    Home care in Wellington can often be arranged quickly, depending on your needs, location and carer availability. In many cases, care can begin within a few days, and urgent support may be possible sooner following an assessment.

    The first step is usually a conversation about your situation, followed by a care assessment and a personalised care plan. This helps make sure the right support is in place from the start.
