Home care in Cookham
Visiting care and home care in Cookham
Home care from our Cookham team offers you or your loved one the chance to benefit from having a Helping Hands carer visit or live in with you in your home and be a friendly face to share life with.
To make sure the quality of our care is never forsaken, we are closely monitored by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), who regulate all of our staff and practices and certify that we’re responsive, effective and safe.
It’s easy to think of care as something that’s put in place to provide physical and practical assistance, but looking after your emotional well-being is just as important. Our holistic, flexible approach to care ensures you or your loved one receive the perfect type and level of care for you, with no stone left unturned.

Meet the Cookham care team
Branch Care Manager
My primary role is to do everything I can to support my staff's health, safety, and well-being while ensuring the smooth operation of our services. I am responsible for ensuring that our service meets all legal and regulatory requirements and delivers quality care to our customers. I believe that by prioritising these areas, we can create a safe and supportive environment for both our staff and the people we serve. Originally, I am from Romania and I have a background in education. Over ten years ago, I moved to the UK, where I discovered a passion for working in the care sector. I began my career as a healthcare assistant and, through dedication and hard work, progressed through various roles within the field. In my personal life, I cherish spending time with my family and spoiling them with homemade goodies whenever I get the chance. Cooking and baking for my loved ones brings me great joy, and I take pride in creating delicious treats that bring smiles to their faces. Whether it’s a traditional Romanian dish or a new recipe I’ve discovered, sharing these moments with my family is a source of happiness and fulfillment. Overall, my journey from Romania to the UK and from healthcare assistant to my current role has been driven by a passion for care.

Other care we provide
High quality home care in Cookham
There’s a reason we’re the UK’s most widely-trusted home care provider, and that’s because we place so much emphasis on attention to detail and ensuring every single customer receives the right type of support for them. We believe that offering a personalised, flexible care plan is the best way to ensure you’re never left feeling isolated or unsupported, whilst simultaneously providing value for your money as you won’t be receiving any more care than what you need. Your Cookham care team, including your local care manager, will be alongside you every step of the way in case your needs should suddenly change or your condition develops.
24/7 live in care support
If you’re currently receiving visiting care but are starting to find you may need a more comprehensive level of support, you may wish to consider live-in care from our Cookham live-in carers. Live-in care is a popular alternative to moving into residential care, as it offers one-to-one, fully personalised support from an expert carer. Our live-in carers are comprehensively trained to provide a wide range of care services – whether you need help with personal routines, housekeeping, mobility support, meals, getting out and about, or even going away on holiday.
Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Cookham
When you opt for a private care provider like Helping Hands in Cookham for your home care, you’ll have much more control over your care plan than if you partner with a care agency or move to a residential care home. This includes being able to make decisions about the type of care you receive and how often you’ll receive it, as well as smaller details relating to meal preferences and bedtimes. We employ and pay our carers directly, which is something that care agencies don’t tend to do. We believe that the peace of mind that comes from having job security allows our carers to devote more time and energy to providing our customers with the very best home care. Conversely, when you choose a care agency rather than a private care provider, you’ll often be expected to handle your carer’s payments yourself.
Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Cookham
We’re extremely proud of our exceptional carers in Cookham – they truly are brilliant at what they do, and constantly go above and beyond to ensure every customer receives the first-rate standards of care they’ve come to expect from Helping Hands. We only hire people to our Cookham team who display a naturally compassionate, empathetic personality, and who are dedicated to their roles. Every new carer receives our industry-renowned carer training, as well as undergoing numerous enhanced-DBS checks to ensure they’ll be a perfect fit for us and for you.
