Other care we provide
High quality home care in Windermere
We don’t need to say that our intermittent visiting service is excellent, as our quality care speaks for itself. Our carers are amazing people who have caring for others at heart, and a real passion for supporting their customers to live their very best lives. They can help deliver a range of services inside your own home such as housekeeping, personal care, medication management, and laundry, and help you to make the most of the local community you live in too.
24/7 live in care support
When you have live-in care, you have the reassurance of never being alone. While your carer will always respect your privacy and give you time with family and friends or to have some peace and quiet when you wish for it, they’ll make sure you never feel lonely. While they’ll take care of all the practical aspects of your care needs, they’ll also support your emotional wellbeing, whether that’s chatting over a cuppa, or taking you to the local library.
Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Windermere
We’ve never been a care agency at Helping Hands, we’ve been a private, family-led home care company since we were established in 1989. That matters, because care agencies don’t manage your care package or employ your carers directly, whereas we do. We’ll design your package of care around your exact requirements, and we’ll look after every aspect of your support at home. This includes finding your perfect carer, making sure they have all the skills they need, and employing them directly.
Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Windermere
Our carers are the heart of Helping Hands, which is why we look after them as well as they look after you. We screen our applicants carefully to make sure they’re the sort of people who should be in your home, and from the day they join us we give them a personalised learning experience to ensure they gain all the knowledge they’ll need to look after you perfectly. This includes access to our inhouse training academy and all the courses and qualifications it contains, meaning they’ll be able to develop in their role and immediately apply their new skills to their customers’ care.
