About Helping Hands
Helping Hands Warwickshire provides care and support to people in their own homes in Stratford upon Avon and across the county. We work with older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia or with mental ill health, people with a learning disability, people who are autistic, people with a physical disability and people with a visual or hearing impairment. We begin with a visit and a proper conversation rather than a form. What we need to understand is how the day goes now, where it has become difficult and what kind of help would genuinely be welcome. From that we agree a plan with the person and, if they want it, with their family, write it down plainly and review it as circumstances change. Visits can cover getting up and settling at night, washing and dressing, prompting or assisting with medication, preparing meals, help around the house, shopping and getting out to appointments or to see people. We also provide dependable cover for relatives caring for somebody themselves. In a rural county, reliability matters above all, so we plan rounds carefully and send the same carers to the same households wherever we can. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are considering care at home in Warwickshire, please call us.
