Home care in Hornchurch

If you’re currently receiving regular visiting care but are finding that your condition requires a greater level of support, you may wish to consider having a live-in carer to provide you with round-the-clock assistance and companionship. Live-in care with Helping Hands gives you the opportunity to have one of our compassionate, fully-trained carers live in your home and give you constant support whenever you need it. Our carers can help you out around the house in whatever way you need – whether that’s with continence care, doing the laundry, preparing meals or anything else. They can also accompany you out and about, so you can maintain your favourite routines and get out the house more frequently.

We’re a private home care provider, rather than a care agency. This means that we employ our carers directly, ensuring they’re free to focus their time and energy on providing you with the best possible care and support. Many care agencies will instead ask you to pay your carer, and will spring hidden fees and unexpected costs upon you. We’re completely up front about all of our prices and what our live-in care service entails, and we won’t burden you with mountains of paperwork or confusing admin. Plus we’re fully regulated by the CQC and CIW, so you know we’re committed to providing a very high standard of care.

Sometimes it’s impossible to plan too far ahead into the future. If you or a loved one find your condition has unexpectedly worsened, you may require an enhanced level of care at the drop of a hat. With emergency care from Helping Hands, we can provide you with one of our compassionate, expert live-in carers at very short notice, ensuring you’re not left to fend for yourself and are able to receive the extra support that you require.

With private care, you’ll have a personalised care plan that is fully designed to your unique requirements and wishes. Our Hornchurch care team will take the time to understand your personal preferences, hobbies and interests, and will match you with a carer who shares your personality. Every aspect of your care will be centred around you and your needs, ensuring you receive a holistic package of care that gives you the support, companionship and confidence you require to be able to enjoy your normal routines and activities as much as possible.

One of the main benefits of having a Helping Hands live-in carer stay with you in your home is that you’ll be supported all the way through the night. Night-time can often be a time of worry for people with frailty or a medical condition. Knowing that there’s a friendly, reliable pair of hands in the house who can help you visit the loo or provide immediate assistance if you fall can provide significant peace of mind, both for you and for your family and friends.

All of our carers in Hornchurch are expertly trained, and are fully equipped to provide you with exceptional live-in care. We hand-pick carers who share our company-wide values of compassion, empathy and commitment to excellence. Every carer undergoes extensive background checks to ensure we’re only employing the very best, and they’re then provided with expert training when they enrol with us. We’re completely dedicated to making sure all of our carers are perfectly placed to support you in any way you need and because we’re fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, you can rely on us to deliver what we promise, to you or your loved ones.
