Home care in Newport

Since 1989, we have been providing some of the best visiting care in the industry to thousands of individuals across the UK. With a wealth of experience and expertise, we really do know what it takes to enable anyone in need of extra support to live safely and soundly within the comfort of their own home.

The Newport team work extremely hard to make sure that each and every one of their customers have everything they need – whether that’s an extra pair of hands to help with watering the plants in the garden, taking you to the shops to collect your weekly groceries, or supporting you with personal care and continence.

Regardless of the condition you’re living with or how your symptoms affect your everyday life, a member of the team will help you to live well in your home and support you to live your life the way you want to.

Being surrounded by your home comforts is the ideal solution for many people living with a progressive condition, and this is possible with live-in care in Newport team. Designed to work wholly around you, you’ll have everything taken care of by a dedicated live-in care worker that will live with you in your home.

What’s more, you’ll get to know your care worker and build up a rapport with them so that you can enjoy each other’s company and spend time doing some of your favourite activities.

At Helping Hands, your care is the priority at all times and keeping our expert standards across the whole of our local branch care network is vital to us. We don’t operate franchises – every one of our branches is owned by us and run by our employees, and we consider that to be part of the reason we’re so successful. If we were a care agency we wouldn’t be able to offer the consistently high levels of care that we can, because we’d have no control over many aspects of what was delivered, but we’re not a care agency and never have been throughout our 30+ year history. This is how we can be sure that the care given by our dedicated Newport team will be of such a high standard at all times, with care delivered by compassionate and kind carers who will do all they can to ensure you live as independently as possible in the home you love.

Domiciliary care is a great option for you if you need a bit of extra support around the house or with your mobility, but with regular visits rather than a full-time live-in care worker. From help with the vacuuming to support getting in and out of bed every day, we have a range of different options for you that can fit seamlessly into your life.

And if you decide that you’re in need of extra support or you develop a medical condition, we can alter your care plan at any time to make sure you’re fully cared for.

Living with dementia can be quite an unsettling time for both you and your family. There can be new medication to remember to take, symptoms that you’re unfamiliar with and frustrations when you are unable to hold a conversation without becoming confused. However, we have expert care workers in the Newport area that are trained to deliver specialist dementia care to reassure both you and your loved ones.

Regardless of the type of dementia you have or your particular symptoms, we can provide care – little or often – that enables you to feel safe, comforted and secure in your own home.

It can be quite difficult to accept that you need care, particularly if you’re used to doing everything yourself and you’ve always been fiercely independent. That’s why we won’t intrude and always respect your wishes and privacy when it comes to your care; we’ll take the lead from you.

So, if you’re starting to notice that you can’t change the bedsheets as easily or you’re struggling to get a pint of milk and a loaf of bread once a week, we’ll step in and support you with whatever you need. The Newport team won’t take over, but simply help to enable you to retain your independence.

Whether you want to attend a wedding or wish to take a holiday with your family, respite care could help with all of your care needs on a temporary basis so that you’re still able to do the things you want to do without missing out on the fun. We can swiftly arrange for a respite care worker to accompany you to your chosen destination, taking any stress away from you or your family.

You may find that your regular carer needs to take a break both physically and mentally from being your full-time carer. A respite care worker from the Newport team can step in at a moment’s notice and become an integral part of your care routine, allowing both of you to take a bit of you-time.

We’ve been training and selecting care workers for over 30 years and really do know what it takes to ensure only the very best people are recruited and chosen to become a Helping Hands carer. With industry-renowned training that covers manual handling, first aid, dementia, medication and personal care, we have every confidence in each and every one of our care workers that they are equipped to handle anything out in the field.

We are also registered with the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW), who are the regulating body in the home care industry in Wales and ensure all official organisations are effective, safe and responsive. We take these regulations very seriously and adhere to their strict guidelines in our Newport branch.
