Our Reviews
High Quality Home Care in Whitehaven
Whether you’d like to explore your local area more closely, have company at home, or you’re just looking for a little housework help, our carers can make all the difference to your days. They’ll arrange to come to your home as often as you need them, providing support for a range of personal and practical tasks, companionship, and giving family carers a break.
Live-in Care support
Live-in care means you’ll have a carer living in your home with you. This is nothing to be initially anxious about, as your home will still feel like your own and your carers will respect your routine every day. Our carers are friendly and compassionate, and will respect your way of life while not overstepping professional boundaries. It’ll also give your loved ones peace of mind that you’re never alone at home.
Why HH is better than a care agency
We’ve never been a care agency and never will be. You may be wondering why this matters, but agencies are not held accountable to the same standards of regulation that private companies such as Helping Hands are. We also employ our carers directly, not expecting them to be paid directly by you or struggle with self-employment. This means they’re free to focus on the most important things – your care.
Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Whitehaven
Our carers are supported throughout their Helping Hands journey, from a comprehensive training package when they first join us to ongoing skills refreshment and courses designed to complement their role. They can also undertake qualifications or strengthen their existing knowledge, and we encourage them to build a career with us and seek promotion if it’s the path they wish to follow.
