Home care in Whitby

We understand how important it is that you remain in control of your care, which is why the team will work with you to provide a personalised care plan that puts your needs at the centre. Whether your loved one is living with dementia and you are concerned for their wellbeing at home, or you simply need some extra support in getting out and about in your local community; our team providing home care in Whitby are here to give you the support you need, when you need it.

With each of our carers completing an award-winning training programme, our Whitby team are fully equipped to provide high-quality support for Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, cerebral palsy, mental health conditions and many more.

If you or a loved one find yourself unexpectedly needing care at short notice, you may wish to consider emergency care from Helping Hands. We can’t always predict when we might need care – perhaps you’ve been discharged from hospital earlier than anticipated, or you’re recovering from an accident and are unable to get around the house like you normally would. Our emergency carers will generally be with you within 24 hours to provide you with compassionate, expert assistance – ensuring you’re not left unsupported and are able to focus on making a recovery or enjoying your usual routines.

With a private care plan, you’re in control of the support that you receive. From your initial phone call with your local care team, we’ll take the time to understand your personal preferences and requirements and ensure you can develop a care plan with a level of support that suits you. You’ll also have control over smaller details of your care that might still be important to you, such as meal choices and bed times, as well as being able to spend more time with loved ones at the times that suit you best.

One of the main reasons people choose to have a live-in carer is to enjoy the added benefit of overnight care. Having a carer stay with you overnight can be a source of reassurance and security, both for you and for your friends and family who might be worrying about leaving you unsupported throughout the night in case you have a fall or a medical emergency.

At Helping Hands, we’re extremely proud of our dedicated, compassionate carers and the exceptional support that they give to our customers day in, day out. All of our care staff are selectively recruited for their empathetic, committed approach to care, and undergo thorough background checks before joining us to ensure they have all the right characteristics to be a Helping Hands carer. Every private carer receives our award-winning training when they join us, as well as regular refresher courses which ensure they’re always up to date with the latest industry standards and best practices. Plus we’re completely regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, so you can have total peace of mind about our high standards of care.
