Home care in Sale

For over 30 years, Helping Hands have been providing home care to those in need of extra support up and down the country. From humble beginnings in Warwickshire, we are now able to offer care across England and Wales, making care accessible to you no matter where you’re located. And now we have a branch of dedicated, friendly carers in Sale that are able to provide visiting care support from as little as 30 minutes per week. So, whether you live with dementia and require daily visits to help you with the house work and check that you’re okay, or if you have a spinal cord injury and you need assistance with personal care and manoeuvring in and out of bed, we can arrange for the right level of support to be provided for you.

For those living with more complex health conditions or those needing round-the-clock support, live-in care offers one-to-one assistance to you in your own home. What’s great about this care option is that you get bespoke care from the same carer that you can build a rapport with, whilst also feeling comfortable and safe in the place you have always known. There’s no need to feel the stress and anxiety of leaving your beloved home and moving into residential care – we can care for you in the familiar environment of your own home.

So that you are fully involved in all of the decisions that matter to you, we’ll work with you to select the perfect live in carer that matches with your needs and personality. We understand that it might be quite a daunting prospect to welcome someone new into your home; that’s why we’ll make sure that you and your carer have the tools to build a great relationship. So, if you are a die-hard United fan and love spending your Saturdays cheering them on at Old Trafford but need support to do so due to being unsteady on your feet, we’ll find a carer that is experienced in mobility support but who loves football too.

Using a private care provider such as Helping Hands for your care needs in Sale means that you’ll receive a care plan that is fully customised to your specific needs and preferences. Private, person-centred care gives you control over what your care plan ends up looking like – although you can, of course, adapt your care plan along the way as your needs change. From choosing your own mealtimes to determining visiting hours, the decisions will be in your hands, meaning your carer can provide assistance in the areas that you need it most and you’ll be able to spend doing the things you enjoy with the people you love.

Whether you’re in your thirties with cerebral palsy and need support getting to university, or if you’re in your eighties and require daily visits to help with the housework, we’ll work with you to put the right level of support in place so that you can live the life you want to lead.

Otherwise known as care at home, domiciliary care puts you in complete control of your care routine so that you have the choice of what time you want to get up in the morning, when you want your carer to help you get to the shops and the way in which you would like your personal care carried out. That way, everything is centred around you and your preferences.

One of the great things about choosing Helping Hands in Sale is that we are dementia home care specialists, so we know exactly what it takes to provide person-centred care to those living with any type of dementia. As a member of the Dementia Action Alliance, we always uphold the latest and safest dementia practices, ensuring that you or your loved one maintains as much independence as possible.

Living with dementia has many different facets, including memory loss, confusion and disorientation, and that’s where our expertise really counts. We’ll get to know you, your family and your routines so that anything you need support with is done so with care, dignity and compassion.

Just because you’ve reached your more senior years, it doesn’t mean that you can’t live independently in your own home. With elderly care from the team in Sale, we can provide support that’s tailored to you and extra reassurance that you always have someone there that you can count on – whether you have weekly calls to help with the laundry and vacuuming or you just like having company.

And it’s not just personal care and housework that we can assist with. We can take you to appointments if you struggle to get there by yourself, we can help to prepare and cook tasty meals and we can even take you out for the afternoon for some fresh air along the Bridgewater Canal.

We understand that emergencies can arise at any time and that they can occur in a variety of different scenarios. Your regular caregiver may have to leave at short notice, you may have just been discharged from hospital after an operation or you may have developed an illness or condition that requires urgent attention. Either way, we can arrange respite care, usually within 24 hours, on a short-term basis so that you are never left without support.

As with all of our carers, we ensure that our award-winning training programme is delivered to our team in Sale so that they are fully equipped to care for our customers in the local area. Modules cover manual handling, dementia, personal care, safeguarding, first aid and many more. Our staff also receive full background checks, including Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) screenings and character references, so that you can have the utmost confidence in the person that is coming to care for you in your home.

Helping Hands is also a founding member of the United Kingdom Home Care Association (UKHCA), who represent many health and care companies across the UK and promote the highest standards of care, which we are completely committed to.
