About Helping Hands
Helping Hands Hull supports people in their own homes across the city. We work with older people, people living with dementia, adults with a physical disability, people with visual or hearing impairment and younger adults. Staying at home is what nearly everyone wants, and the question is usually what it would take to make that workable. Sometimes the answer is modest, a single morning call to help someone wash and dress and get the day started. Sometimes it is several visits a day covering personal care, medication, meals and company, or longer sits so that a family carer can go out without worrying. We begin by asking what the person wants help with, which is not always what a referral says. People are often very clear about what they can still manage perfectly well and would rather we left to them, and respecting that is part of the job. Continuity matters a great deal, especially where dementia is involved. A familiar carer who knows the routine, the house and the person makes a visit work in a way that a stranger cannot. We plan rotas with that in mind and keep visit times as steady as we can. Please ring us to talk things through.
