Respite care is short-term care for when your primary carer is unavailable. They may have a family emergency to attend to or need to take a well-deserved break from their duties of being a full-time carer. Or you may need additional support following an operation, illness or accident. At Helping Hands, we can offer you respite care at home without you having to move into a residential care home – our carers will come to you.
Whether you need respite care for the weekend, a few weeks or longer, our Helping Hands Maidenhead home care team will ensure you are provided with the highest standard of care at home. You will be able to receive care in the place you love most without disrupting your routine. Our wonderful carers are here to support you in your daily duties, so you can focus on the things you enjoy. We make sure our care packages are tailored to you and your requirements – so you are the one in control.
Respite care is a viable option when your carer is away or you need additional support at home. This may be following an early discharge from the hospital or an accident. Rest assured, respite care will ensure you are not left alone and well looked after by our compassionate and friendly carers. Plus, it will give your loved ones reassurance that you are being cared for by some of the best carers in the industry.
At Helping Hands, we deliver exceptional care making sure we promote your independence and give you the respect and dignity you deserve. We offer two packages: visiting care and live-in care. Our visits start from as little as 30 minutes a week or if you feel you need support throughout the day and night, you can opt for a live-in carer. We will take the time to understand your condition and adhere to your requirements, so we can assist you in your day-to-day life. Whether that’s helping with the cooking, walking the dog or folding the clothes, our carers will be by your side every step of the way.
Being a carer is a very rewarding job and our Maidenhead care team really loves what they do. We carefully select our carers and make sure they are the right person for you and us. All our carers go through an intensive training programme which covers modules including safeguarding, first aid and manual handling. Our trainers are experts in the field, so they truly know what qualities are needed to make the best carer. So, you can fully rely on us.
Your safety is also important to us, which is why all our carers go through a background check. We are also fully regulated and monitored by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, so you know you’ll be receiving the best care and support you deserve.
