Meet the Fakenham care team
Branch Care Manager
Hi, I am the Branch Manager in the Fakenham branch of Helping Hands. My job is to provide a team of well trained and professional carers. These carers provide excellent support to people wanting to remain living independently and safely in their own homes. With the help of a Care Coordinator and Care and Training Practitioner we provide a tailor-made service to customers that is regularly reviewed and altered as changes in need determine. I have worked in care, in various settings since I left school. It was a job I quickly fell in love with and I have never looked back. I could be quoted as telling people constantly that this is the best job in the world. I know this area really well. I live here with my husband and two dogs. We all love living so close to the seaside and we do lots of walking on the beach and swimming in the sea.

Better than a care agency in Fakenham
-
When it comes to live-in care, Helping Hands is a better choice than a care agency because we truly value our staff. Our carers truly are the heart and soul of our business, and we do our utmost to ensure they’re well looked after and are always prepared to provide you with exceptional care day in, day out. Unlike most agencies, we employ our carers directly and provide them with award-winning training, supporting them at all times. Being a private care provider also means that you won’t be subjected to any hidden costs or unexpected fees – we’re completely upfront about what our live-in care costs, and we won’t burden you with mountains of unwanted paperwork and administration.
-
Emergency care
-
If you or a loved one find yourself without a carer at short notice, you may wish to use emergency care – or respite care – from Helping Hands. We’re almost always able to provide you with a carer in your home within 24 hours’ notice, ensuring you won’t be left unsupported or worrying about the housework not being done. Whether you’ve been discharged from hospital earlier than anticipated or your regular carer is suddenly unavailable, our expert carers will be happy to help in any way you need.
-
Private care in Fakenham
-
Private care gives you a higher level of control over your care plan and allows you to make choices that are more suited to your personal preferences. At Helping Hands in Fakenham, we’re completely committed to ensuring all of our care is person-centred, putting you at the heart of every aspect of your care provision. When you have a live-in carer, it’s especially important that you feel part of the decision-making process and are able to personalise your care plan. From meal preferences to bed times and so much more, using a private care provider gives you complete flexibility in your day-to-day and allows you to maintain your favourite routines and hobbies.
-
Overnight care
-
One of the great advantages of a live-in carer is that you’ll have 24-hour support, meaning you’ll be cared for throughout the night with overnight care. Night-time can often be the period when we feel most vulnerable and isolated, but having a carer to provide extra security and companionship can be a major reassurance. Your carer can also assist you with getting to the toilet and with other areas of personal care, as well as changing bed linen and doing your laundry. You and your loved ones will be able to sleep easy, knowing that you’re always being taken care of.
-
