Torquay is famous for being a wonderful seaside resort with a rich history and even a claim to fame in the TV show ‘Fawlty Towers’ being set here. We know that considering leaving your lovely home to access healthcare can be overwhelming and often upsetting. That’s why at Helping Hands, we bring high-quality home care to you in Torquay with our live-in, visiting and respite care. With over 150 branches in the UK and over 35 years of experience, we’re perfecting our holistic care approach with each passing year. We’re also regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), so we’re always kept up to scratch.
Our nursing care could be for you if you need an extra hand with more medically complex needs. Our carers are expertly trained in anything from stoma and catheter care, ventilation care and NIPPY and PEG feeding. We can help with nephrostomy care, medication administration and other needs that need a more trained eye. We offer all the expert care a care home can but within the comfort of your home, including personal care which can support with bathing, dressing and toileting. We make sure to get to know you and your needs so we can help create a healthy and happy daily routine for you.
While we’re experts at the tricker bits of care, we’re also superb at offering support with housekeeping, meal preparation, grocery shopping and being an all-around help with the answers to ‘The Chase’. We also offer condition-led care which can support conditions like dementia, cancer, Downe’s Syndrome, Parkinson’s and many more. We know it’s not a ‘one size fits all’ approach when it comes to care, and that’s why we endeavour to get to know you and your condition. Our holistic approach to care means we don’t only look after your physical well-being, but we take care of your emotional and spiritual needs too.
Our carers are DBS-checked and come with a wealth of experience, training, and qualifications. They all have a genuine passion for helping others and we try to handpick our carers to match your personality and interests. We hope you’ll soon be able to visit the wondrous Stone Age Kents Cavern with your new trusted friend and companion. Torquay has a lot to offer, from evidence of Roman settlements and even being called the ‘English Riviera’ in Victorian times. Now, Torquay can also boast being the home of the UK’s leading home care provider – Helping Hands.
If you have more questions about our nursing care and what we can offer, then feel free to contact us over the phone or via our seven-day-a-week Live Chat on our website.
