Home care in Torquay

For over 30 years, we’ve been committed to providing individually-tailored, high-quality home care to thousands of individuals across England and Wales; enabling them to feel safe, supported and independent in the comfort of their own homes. Our aim is to ensure that you have the support you need to live your life entirely on your terms – whether that’s going for a walk along the seafront or a cup of tea at Paignton Pier. We’re here to ensure that you can continue to do the things you love to do – just with a little help along the way.

With visits starting from 30 minutes per week all the way up to regular calls throughout the day and night for more complex conditions, Kathryn and her team will get to know you and your needs and preferences so that we can create a bespoke care plan that centres entirely around you.

Everyone has their own individual ways of living – regardless of their condition. With bespoke visiting care from our Torquay team, there is no one-size-fits-all. We’ll take all of your needs and routines into account and work closely with you to ensure that you have everything you need to live each day exactly how you want to.

If you’re in need of more intensive support but moving into a residential or nursing home isn’t the best option for you, live-in care in Torquay from Kathryn and her team is an ideal alternative to ensure that you have the same level of full-time care but without compromising on the home that you know and love.

With home care from a private care provider like Helping Hands, you’ll get a package of care that is completely tailored to your specific needs and preferences. We pride ourselves on our person-centred care, and we’ll do our utmost to ensure your wishes are always respected. We’ll make sure you have control over smaller details that may still be important to you, such as meal choices and bedtimes, and you’ll be able to see your loved ones as often as you wish and at the times that are most convenient to you. Our wonderful carers in Torquay are fully trained to identify your support needs and provide you with a care plan that perfectly suits your situation. If you have a medical condition that is likely to progress, we’re also able to adapt your care accordingly.

Helping Hands was founded by Mary Lee in 1989 in order to enable those who needed a little extra help to feel safe and supported in their own home. And we’re incredibly proud that, thirty years later, we are still providing the same level of high-quality care to thousands of individuals across the nation. Big enough to support your every need yet still small enough to care, we are committed to finding the perfect care solution that enables you to continue to live your life entirely on your terms – with a helping hand along the way.

We understand how important it is for you to have full control over your care, which is why domiciliary care from Kathryn and her team allows you to have freedom over the frequency and intensity of the support you receive. We’ll work with you to ensure that you have the domiciliary care that you want, when you want it. After all, there really is no place like home.

As a leading dementia care specialist, we understand the uncertainties and anxieties that follow a dementia diagnosis – for both you and your loved ones. Whether it’s Pick’s disease, Alzheimer’s or dementia with Lewy bodies, our experienced and compassionate carers are here to alleviate your worries and gently guide you through each step of your journey with dementia.

What’s more, we’re not only here to provide the practical support that is needed when living with dementia, but we’re here to be a source of emotional support and comfort for you and your family too. Whether you’re living in the early stages of dementia and you just need a gentle reminder to take your medication, or your symptoms are progressing and your family need guidance on how to manage in a difficult situation – we’ll put a package of care in place that caters for all your needs and is completely unique to you.

Independence is at the heart of what we do, and we believe that you should always be enabled to live the life you want to live – regardless of your age or limitations. With elderly care from Kathryn and her team, we’ll work closely with you to ensure that you have the support you need to feel safe and independent at home. Whether you need someone to pop in and help you with your household chores or you’d like to accompany your children and grandchildren out to Torquay Harbour but you’d like some extra support whilst you’re out and about – our flexible elderly care packages give you the extra help you need to continue living the life you love.

You may be recently discharged from hospital and don’t feel comfortable being home without support just yet, or perhaps you’re looking to go down to Berry Head for the day but you’d like someone to be with to make you feel a little more secure. Whatever it is you need, Kathryn and her team offer bespoke respite care packages that give you the support you need, for as long as you need it.

Designed to provide expert care but without upsetting your regular routine, we’ll work closely with you to establish your needs and requirements so that we can put a package of care in place that caters to all your needs. And if your care needs have changed at the last minute, we can work quickly to provide a seamless transition between carers with minimal disruption to your quality of care – often within 24 hours of your initial enquiry.

We’re incredibly proud to be one of the leading home care providers in the UK, offering support to thousands of families across England and Wales. But without the compassion and commitment of our wonderful carers, we wouldn’t be where we are today. They go above and beyond for our customers every day, and it is their dedication and natural ability to care that has kept us at the forefront of the home care industry for over 30 years.

Whether they are training at our bespoke training facility in Warwickshire or within one of our many branches across the UK, all of our carers complete comprehensive training courses that cover a variety of modules such as moving and handling, safeguarding, dementia care and first aid. And as well as following a fine-tuned recruitment process inclusive of background checks and references, they also complete regular refresher training courses throughout their employment to ensure that their skills are always at the best that they can be.

We’re proud to be the first and only home care provider to be endorsed as a Centre of Excellence by Skills for Care. We are also fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), which ensures that we are always providing a safe, effective and responsive service to each and every one of our customers.
