Visiting care and home care in Weymouth

Weymouth has a fascinating history that encompasses heavy involvement in significant events such as the spread of the Black Death in the 14th century, the settlement of the Americas in the 17th century and the Normandy Landings during World War II.

While we can’t claim to have a history anywhere near as rich as Weymouth’s, we’ve been delivering dedicated home care to customers since 1989. With our home care packages starting from just 30 minutes a week, we’re committed to ensuring you’re able to enjoy each day as it comes.

    With plans starting from as little as 30 minutes a week, our visiting care service is fully customisable to your specific needs and requirements. Our dedicated team of compassionate carers are trained to give you support where you need it most, including with medication, mobility, appointments, personal care and household tasks.

    Weymouth live-in care

    If you or your loved ones need round-the-clock care, we can support you in the comfort and familiarity of your own home with our live-in care service. Our live-in carers are fully trained to provide you with dedicated, compassionate and expert care, however straightforward or complex your requirements. In addition to supporting you with housework and personal care, they can also provide you with companionship and reassurance. Of course, we respect the need for personal space and privacy, so our carers will also take care to be discreet and unintrusive.

    We’ve been providing domiciliary care to our customers for over 30 years, so when you have live-in or visiting care from us you know you’re in expert hands. We will design a bespoke package of care around your specific needs and requirements, ensuring you have control over your routine and are able to remain comfortable in the familiar surroundings of your own home.

    Better than a care agency in Weymouth

    We’re a better home care option than a home care agency because we go the extra mile in ensuring we have the highest standards of care and the most compassionate, suitable carers. Unlike agencies, we employ our carers directly. We place great importance on looking after our carers properly, because they’re the ones who make our care provision so exceptional. Being a private home care provider also means you won’t get any hidden fees or complex pricing structures from us.

    Experienced and personalised dementia care

    A dementia diagnosis can feel like a hammer blow, and immediately raises questions about how care needs may arise as life inevitably changes. At Helping Hands, we have over 30 years’ experience in providing people living with dementia with the right level of support and care every step of the way whilst living in the comfortable and familiar surroundings of their own home. Our expert team of dementia carers will ensure your personalised dementia care plan is designed specifically to your wishes and requirements, giving you peace of mind that you’ll be supported in just the way you want when the time comes for care.

    Elderly care tailored to you

    It’s natural to get to a stage in life where household tasks become more difficult and more time consuming than they used to be. Helping Hands provide specialised elderly care that relieves the pressure on you and your family members through flexible, bespoke care packages. Our elderly care includes assistance with various tasks as specified by you, including housework, meal preparation, laundry, personal care and medication.

    Respite care from supportive carers

    Respite care from Helping Hands allows you to receive flexible short-term care from our superb carers when you most need it. It might be that your regular carer suddenly becomes unavailable, a family member goes on holiday, or you’re discharged from hospital earlier than anticipated. We can typically provide emergency care cover within 24 hours to help you in any way needed, allowing you to continue with your normal routine.

We have a very careful and selective recruitment process which means we only employ carers who are committed to providing dedicated, compassionate, person-centred care. We ensure all our carers receive thorough training that’s been curated over our 30-plus years of providing care to thousands of customers.

    FAQs

    Home care in Weymouth 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 Weymouth 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 Weymouth.

    Home care in Weymouth 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.
