High quality home care in Ampthill
Visiting care sees one of our amazing carers coming to your home as often or frequently as you need them, on prearranged visits of 30 minutes and upwards. You may need someone to help you out of bed and into the shower, or to prepare you a nutritious lunch; however we can help you to live your most independent life at home, we’ll do it exactly as you wish.
24/7 live in care support
If you would prefer to have someone living in your home around the clock to offer companionship, personal care, and every other aspect of your daily routine, then live-in care is for you. Your carer will have gone through a rigorous programme of instruction and assessment to ensure they have the necessary skills to support you fully at home, meaning you and your loved ones can be confident you’ll never be left alone.
Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Ampthill
With a traditional care agency you get what you pay for – they will act as an introductory service, finding you a carer who you will be responsible for employing. That means the worry of tax, national insurance, and all other aspects of their employment will fall onto you. At Helping Hands we’re proud to have never been an agency, instead establishing ourselves as a private home care company back in 1989.
Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Ampthill
At Helping Hands we know what it takes to deliver the best care – after all, we’ve been doing it for four decades. We’ve grown from strength to strength since our small beginnings as a family business, but we’ve never lost sight of the values we started out with. These include promoting our customers’ independence at every opportunity, and always treating each of our customers as an individual. We never have and never will believe in ‘one size fits all’. Our carers work tirelessly every single day for our customers, making sure they get to live as well as possible at home, for as long as possible. They can do this because they are naturally compassionate people, and we work hard to find those people amongst the many who apply to us.
