Since 1989, our person-centred cancer care services have helped thousands of people across the UK to remain in the home they love while receiving specialist treatment and clinical care for their condition. Our wonderful carers providing home care in Kempston deliver empathetic support that focuses on helping you to manage the symptoms of your condition and retain your quality of life and independence for as long as possible, whatever your diagnosis. During what can be an incredibly difficult time for all concerned, even just a bit of extra support can go a long way. And, for your full peace of mind, our cancer care services and carers are independently regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
After a cancer diagnosis, it can often feel like a real challenge to try and maintain some sort of normality – both for the person living with the condition, and for their loved ones. However, a diagnosis doesn’t have to mean sacrificing everything you love about your lifestyle. With external support from a private care provider like Helping Hands, you can receive support that focuses on helping you manage, slow down and sometimes even improve your symptoms whilst having that extra practical and emotional support that can be so valuable when life gets turned upside down.
A cancer care plan with Helping Hands is fully tailored to your personal needs, meaning you won’t have to worry about ever being left feeling isolated or unsupported. We pride ourselves on our person-centred approach to our care – your package of care is in your hands, from setting your own bed-times to choosing what meals you’d like your carer to prepare for you. We know that everyone living with cancer is on their own unique care journey, which is why our care experts providing home care in Kempston will provide you with an assessment of your needs and take the time to fully understand your condition and circumstances before offering you a care plan that gives you the perfect type and level of support.
Our cancer carers in Kempston truly are at the heart of everything that makes our care so popular with our customers. We’re very selective about who we recruit to our care teams – we only hire people who are naturally kind and compassionate, and who share our dedication to providing genuinely transformative and meaningful home care. All of our carers have undergone enhanced-DBS checks before joining us, as we want to ensure they’ll be a perfect fit for you in your home, and must also pass our four-day assessment programme. When they start with us, every new carer enrols on our industry-leading carer training, which equips them to provide specialist care for people with different variations of cancer, and carers will continue to participate in regular refresher courses so that their knowledge and skillset are kept up to date with the latest care industry standards and best practices.
