Gateway to the North of Somerset, Weston-super-Mare is an ideal family holiday spot and is a particular favourite getaway for Midlanders alike. As well as having long stretches of sandy beaches that are perfect for taking a leisurely stroll and soaking up the salty air, this coastal town was also a favourite holiday destination during the 19th century where it saw its size grow from around 100 people to over 20,000. Now home to nearly 80,000 inhabitants, Weston is also home to a team of Helping Hands carers.
Get in touch with our team today to discuss your requirements and together we will create a care package tailored to your needs. From weekly visits to full-time live-in care, there is a Helping Hands carer prepared to provide all the support required to uphold your independence.
For over 30 years, we've been supporting people with care, nurse-supported care and companionship across England and Wales. As industry-leaders in home care, we know what it takes to provide the right level of care so that you can retain your independence in the comfort of your beloved home.
Over 160 branches across the UK means we're local to you
We are not an agency - we employ every carer directly
Get to know your carer before care starts
Family-run and experts in home care since 1989
Fully flexible care packages as your needs change
Flexible care provided in your own home with a fully qualified carer. Visits start from as little as 30 minutes up to several hourly or overnight calls throughout the week.
One-to-one support from a fully qualified care that lives with you. Full-time support so you can stay at home where you feel most comfortable.
For over 30 years, we’ve been providing expert home care to individuals across England and Wales, enabling them to stay in the place where they know and love; their home. From as little as 30-minute visits to help you to change the bed sheets, all the way up to regular visits throughout the day to help you with continence care, we’ll put a package of homecare in place that suits your routine and requirements.
With experience in supporting a variety of different conditions including Alzheimer’s, acquired brain injuries and cerebral palsy amongst any others – the team at Weston-super-Mare will get to know how your symptoms effect you and work alongside you to find the best solution. And if your needs or symptoms change, we can easily adapt the type of care you receive and how often we visit.
Taking care of the whole individual rather than just taking care of their practical needs is extremely important too. So, if it’s someone to take you down to the Grand Pier for the afternoon for an ice cream or a friendly face to pop in and have a chat over a cup of tea, companionship is something that we can also offer.
Choosing care at home from Helping Hands means that you don’t just get amazing support from our dedicated carers in Weston-Super-Mare, you also get a fully managed service that goes over and above anything you’d receive from a traditional care agency. We can be so confident about that because we’ve never been a care agency; since we were founded in 1989 we’ve been a private homecare company, whose passion is delivering the highest standards of care to you at home. We’re different from an agency because of how we treat our carers too. All of them are employed directly by us, meaning we handle all of the legalities and regulations, unlike if you were ‘matched’ with your carer by an agency. They would take a fee from you just to introduce you to a suitable carer, then leave you to manage, pay and oversee the carer yourself. Not what you want to be doing when you should be focussing solely on your care requirements.
Round-the-clock live-in care is a great option for you if you require more intensive support but don’t want to go into a residential home. Matched with you via your personality, care needs and preferences, your live-in carer will come and live with you in your home and provide you with the one-to-one support you need to enable you to continue living at home in comfort.
A live-in care package can start from as little as three days and continue on a more permanent basis, depending on your preferences. What’s more, your carer will be solely looking after you and no one else so you’ll can have complete peace of mind that all of your needs are being met.
All of our live-in carers are supported by our local managers and a team of clinical nurses, so you can rest assured that you have expert assistance every step of your care journey – whether you need help with PEG feeding, a tracheotomy, catheter or stoma.
Private care allows you to choose when, where and how you receive your care. This type of support can be suitable if you need an extra pair of hands to help with the housework, regular assistance with your personal care or support to get back on your feet after an accident or injury.
Having support with personal care or tasks around the house means that you or your loved one can continue to live comfortably and independently in the place you know and love; your home.
It’s important that everyone takes time to rest and relax, but even more so if you’re a permanent carer for a relative or friend. With respite care, you can both be assured that care will be delivered of the highest quality without impacting on your existing routines. With a short break, it gives you both the chance to recharge your batteries, which can be a vital part of your care routine.
Respite care can also be suitable if you want to take a holiday with your family or carer or if your regular carer needs to attend an emergency. Within as little as 24 hours, we can put a package of care in place that allows you to have complete confidence that all of your care needs will be catered for.
Making a real difference to people’s lives is why our carers decide to join the Helping Hands family, and this innate quality of looking after others is what we look for when recruiting carers. In addition to being naturally empathetic people, we also ensure every single carer is trained to the highest level so that they can consistently deliver the best care possible.
All of our carers go through our award-winning training programme either at the Weston branch or at our bespoke training centre in Warwickshire (live-in carers only). Modules such as manual handling, personal care, medication, dementia and first aid are delivered by our expert trainers, as well as all carers having a mandatory Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) check.
We’re also a fully-regulated service that is regularly inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), who check that we’re offering safe, effective and responsive care.
If you’d like to discuss visiting or live-in care options, you can arrange a meeting with Sarah by calling. We’re here to take your call seven days a week.
You can also pop into our branch on Oxford Street, Monday to Friday anytime between 8:30am to 5:30pm. If getting to us is a bit difficult for you, we can come to you! Just let us know whether you prefer to meet at a local café or in your front room, and we’ll be there.
