Home care in Bracknell

Our dedicated carers will be a welcome friendly face every day that you have home care, coming to your home at prearranged times to suit you. You may require help at crucial times of the day such as mealtimes or getting in and out of bed, or perhaps you’d prefer some support with personal care or housework? Our visiting carers are invaluable when it comes to managing at home and they can also care for you outside of it, taking you to appointments, activities, or days out.

When a carer lives in your home with you around the clock, you develop a special relationship. You and your carer will not only become friends but you’ll be able to predict how the other is feeling, and your tactful carer will know when you’re in the mood to chat or if you’d rather have some peace and quiet. They will be able to undertake all your care for you, such as medication administration, meal preparation and personal care, yet will also be a constant source of reassurance for you and your loved ones, knowing you’re not in the house on your own. With live-in care from Helping Hands you truly get the best of everything.

Helping Hands is proud to be a home care company rather than an agency. Why? Because it means we can give our customers the best care possible in their own homes without burdening them with everything a traditional agency brings. Care agencies often expect the customer themselves to ‘employ’ their carer, meaning you have the responsibility for organising the subsequent legalities, or worse, the carer is expected to do it themselves when their only focus should be on you. We directly employ all of our carers as we are a fully regulated and managed service, so if you want you and your carer to be focussing on the priorities of your care, contact us to learn more today.

Dementia is an umbrella term, encompassing over 100 different types of the disease, so when you’re looking for dementia care you want a specialist company who always treats their customers as individuals. We’ve been supporting people living with dementia to remain in the home they love for more than 30 years, helping to reduce confusion and anxiety by remaining in familiar surroundings, close to loved ones and precious memories.

When the unforeseen happens, such as an unexpected hospital discharge or a carer becoming ill, you may need short-term care, and quickly. Respite care is also suitable when your regular carer just needs to take a break, so if you need support until they return, we can help. Respite care traditionally conjures up images of having to go into residential care but that’s never been the case with Helping Hands; we come to you and provide all the care you need, in the place you love most, your own home.

As we age, we all find that tasks take a little longer than they used to, but if you’re finding day-to-day life more difficult than you’d like, why not talk to us about elderly care? We can support you with things like housework, laundry, medication and your mobility, or the more intimate needs such as personal care, dressing and helping you in and out of bed. You may appreciate a home-cooked meal or some dusting or light gardening; no matter what you require to make your day go better, we can be there for you.

Helping Hands are industry leaders in home care because we put our customers and carers at the centre of everything we do. Our carers are the very heart of our business because we know what a difference they make, every single day. Because of this, we are very selective about who joins us, and we select only the best people who share our ethos for individualised, high quality care. We train our carers very well to make sure they are ready for many eventualities and keep their learning current through continuous development opportunities. This, teamed with being fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, really does put us head and shoulders above other homecare providers.
