About Help at Home
We are Help at Home Leicester, and we support adults in their own homes across Leicester and the surrounding county. Our visits range from one short call a day through to several hours of support, and we arrange them around the person's routine rather than our rota. We help older people with washing and dressing, medication, meals, shopping and the household jobs that become harder with time. We support adults living with dementia, where familiar faces arriving at predictable times achieve more than any amount of technique, so we keep the same care workers with the same households as far as the rota allows. We also support adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, people living with mental ill health, people with physical disabilities and people living with sight or hearing loss, along with younger adults who want help that reduces as their confidence grows. Leicester is a diverse city and we treat that as part of the job. We ask about language, faith, food and household customs at the assessment instead of assuming, and we match care workers thoughtfully where we can. Every package starts with a visit and a proper conversation at home, and the plan is written with the person and reviewed honestly. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please ring us to talk it through.
