Here at Helping Hands, over half of our customers are living with dementia, and we see our role as vital in enabling them to live a safe, comfortable, and fulfilled life in their own homes. If you or your loved one lives in the Wokingham area, our dedicated home care team is always on hand to help to support you, regardless of your specific needs.
We have been supporting people living with dementia for over 30 years now, providing a range of services, following care plans that are designed especially for them, and working in conjunction with GPs, nurses, and other members of your care team.
We are fully regulated by the CQC (Care Quality Commission) – the organisation that is given the task of regulating care services in England, which ensures that we are providing excellent levels of service to all of our customers. We provide person-centred support, with the intention of helping our customers who are living with dementia to stay as independent as possible, and, importantly, stay living in the familiarity of their own homes.
We look to provide expert, professional, and friendly support for you or your loved one. Our home care in Wokingham team has the benefits of local knowledge teamed with the bonus of working for a national company. All of our care staff are chosen specifically for their abilities in supporting our customers, alongside having the right friendly and compassionate personalities.
All of our care staff complete a thorough initial training course and are DBS checked before they start to work for us. We also provide more specialist dementia care training for our care staff.
Here at Helping Hands, we are proud to say that we take our responsibilities in the world of dementia very seriously. We work closely with several prominent bodies in dementia care, including the Dementia Action Alliance. This not only enables us to stay up-to-date with developments in dementia care but also contribute to it with our own experiences.
To be in a stable and familiar environment is extremely important for people who are living with dementia, and here at Helping Hands, we are able to facilitate this through our visiting care services. Our fantastic dementia care team is able to come out to visit you or your loved one at home as little or often as needed. We also offer live in care in Wokingham.
Whether you are looking for someone who can assist with washing and dressing in the morning, running errands, and doing shopping, helping you or your loved one to get out of the house, or you are just looking for someone who can pop round for some company, our dementia care team is able to help. Our care staff will arrive with a smile, and we have a range of care packages to suit you.
We have used our vast experience and work with leading dementia organisations to hone our skills and knowledge, meaning that we can confidently say that we are industry leaders in dementia support.
We realise how important it is to provide dementia care that is perfectly suited to each individual customer. This is reflected in our person-centred philosophy and the range of care packages that are available.
Our Wokingham home care team can provide home visits from several times a week to several times a day, or, if you prefer, we can arrange for a carefully selected live-in carer who can be there on a full-time basis – not only assisting with anything that you or your loved one needs, but also forging a strong friendship.
We also offer nurse-led care should you need it. Our registered nurses are available to help out with any clinical needs and are key to ensuring that all of our customers are able to stay living in their own homes and out of residential care. We aim to take the pressure off families and friends through the physical and psychological support that we provide for our customers, leaving room for you to enjoy the time that you spend together.
If you or your loved one live in or around the Wokingham area and are looking for professional, compassionate, high-quality dementia care, our local team is here for you.
