Regional Care Director
Hi, I’m Adam and as Regional Care Director, I’m responsible for making sure that all the customers we help day-in day-out across the South West and South Wales are looked after brilliantly. In order to do this, we need to have the very best carers and support teams there for them so that they can thrive within Helping Hands and do what they do best: care. I think we do everything possible to really understand our customers’ needs and then do everything possible to find the right carer for them. Our carers do a wonderful job, and they are special people who are ‘hardwired’ to care.
Reviews and credentials
We are actively collecting and monitoring our reviews and feedback for Bridgwater to ensure our customers receive the best possible live in and home care service.
Other care we provide
Home Care Bridgwater - here to support you
Traditionally, when the need for additional day-to-day support arose, people would choose to move to a residential care home or a hospice. However, an increasingly popular option is to instead remain at home and receive specialist one-to-one assistance from a fully-trained carer. Opting for home care in Bridgwater means you won’t have to give up doing all the things you enjoy, and you’ll be able to remain in a familiar, reassuring environment. You also won’t have to compromise on how often you see family and friends, which can be really important for people who are likely to experience feelings of isolation. With home care from Helping Hands, our brilliant carers will visit you in your home as little or as often as you wish, and will assist with anything and everything – from doing the laundry and cleaning the house, to providing discreet personal care and accompanying you to appointments.
Live in care to support you
Live-in care gives you or your loved one the opportunity to have one our brilliant carers come to stay with you in your home and provide you with round-the-clock support throughout the day and the night. When it comes to your well-being, you can’t put a price on peace of mind. Live-in care gives you and your loved ones complete assurance that you’ll always have someone there to look after you, and to provide you with immediate assistance should you experience a fall or a medical emergency. A live-in carer is also a brilliant source of companionship, particularly for those living alone. We’ll make sure you’re partnered with a carer who shares your interests and your personality, because that way you get a new friend as well as a helper.
The difference between Helping Hands and a care agency in Bridgwater
Helping Hands are a private care provider, rather than a care agency, which means that we’re able to offer certain guarantees that many agencies aren’t. For example, we employ all of our carers directly, which means we know that they’ll be reliable, well rested and paid on time. It also means that we handle our carers’ wages ourselves, rather than requiring you to stay on top of payments and take care of mountains of fiddly paperwork.
We’re extremely proud of our brilliant carers in Bridgwater – they truly are exceptional at what they do, and they go above and beyond every day to ensure every one of our customers receives the incredible care that they’ve come to expect from Helping Hands. All of our carers are fully DBS-checked, and have been selectively recruited for their personable, compassionate approach to the support that they provide. We also provide every new carer with comprehensive care training, as well as regular refresher courses to keep their knowledge and skillset up to date.
Private care in Bridgwater
When you partner with a private care provider such as Helping Hands, you’ll benefit from having full control over your care plan. We know that no two people have identical care requirements, so from your very first phone call to our customer support team we’ll ensure your needs and wishes are at the heart of every decision surrounding your support. From bed-times and meal preferences to weekly care hours and specific care requests, our care experts in Bridgwater will make sure everything is tailored according to your preferences whilst ensuring you get the type and level of support that you require for your condition and circumstances.
