With visits from 30 minutes up to full-time, live-in care, you can be sure that the Chigwell team will be able to provide you with the flexible, supportive care package that you’re looking for. Carers will be able to support with every aspect of their customer’s care, including personal care, companionship, medication, mobility support, meal preparation and accompanying to appointments. Perhaps you or a loved one have always enjoyed visiting Hainault Forest Country Park or going shopping at nearby markets and malls; your carer can help you continue doing the things you love, both inside and outside your home, thanks to your flexible and personalised support plan.
You may have noticed a loved one slowing down a little recently or perhaps you’ve been experiencing less mobility yourself? You may need support after an illness or hospital stay, or maybe just for general helping out. Your carer can support you with everything from light housework, personal care and companionship, or more complex clinical needs if necessary. Talk to the Chigwell team today and they’ll advise you on what exactly your carer can support you with and work on a comprehensive support plan that incorporates your usual daily routines.
Carers for limited hour visits
Whether you would like a 30-minute visit for a quick lunch break, or you require several longer visits each day, visiting care is flexible enough to ensure that your daily routine isn’t compromised. You may need some vacuuming or dusting done, medication at certain times of the day or perhaps you need accompanying to hospital appointments, but whatever you need, the Chigwell team are able to help. Perhaps you need more help during the hours of darkness as you find it hard to sleep, need support with your mobility or regular medication, your carer can be with you during the night so that you never feel alone when everyone else is asleep.
Intermittent long-term visits
If you are caring for a loved one you know how important it is to take regular breaks, but understandably, you may be reluctant to place them in the care of someone else. With Helping Hands’ Chigwell team offering short and longer-term respite care, you can be confident that your loved one will be in the hands of highly dedicated professionals. Perhaps you need to reconnect with a partner, kids, or just take time for yourself? With a flexible support plan in place, your loved one will have their routines respected and everything done just as they like it, with the minimum of disruption to their daily life, meaning you get a chance to relax and recharge knowing they’re in expert hands.
Carers for immediate situations
When life throws us emergency situations to deal with, you need to be confident that there is a solution at hand. For instance, if a loved one is recovering from a fall, a stroke or is being discharged unexpectedly from hospital it makes sense that they will need a little extra support at home, to ensure they are safe and well cared for. This may be difficult for a family member to provide as you may live far away or perhaps have your own busy life to run, meaning you need to be confident that they’re in expert care. The emergency care team in Chigwell will be able to advise on all your options and get care into your loved one’s home, often the same day.
Leanne and the team in Chigwell are proud of the difference their dedicated and professional carers make for customers all over the local area. They will be happy to talk you through your care options and create a bespoke package of personalised care, just for you. Helping Hands is not an agency; we employ all our carers directly, meaning that we get an unprecedented level of commitment and dedication from those who work for us. Therefore, you can be confident that your carers will always put you at the centre of your care journey and do all they can to make sure you are living your best possible life. The carers undertake a rigorous programme of instruction when they join us and regularly refresh their skills throughout their employment, meaning their knowledge is always at the forefront of industry developments. Helping Hands is also assessed by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), the independent regulator of health and social care in England, consistently achieving ‘Good’ ratings throughout our branches.
