Overall Experience

Helping hands recently provided some care for my mum while she was recovering after a hospital stay. The service was friendly and professional right from my first enquiry and they were able to offer a temporary 5 week package of care for us. My mum found her carers to be very friendly kind and trustworthy

while helping her with some domestic tasks one day a week. They had some shared interests and made her feel comfortable right from the start. We wouldn't hesitate to use the service again.

Overall Experience

I have found the carers to be very helpful in looking after mum and dad who both have dementia. They bring structure and organisation into the day. Sometimes they arrive at the back end or outside the call slot and this can cause upset due to dementia sufferers looking for routine and timescales. I

know it can be difficult when travelling to multiple addresses in different areas and that they are working to try and resolve this issue. They also enable me to have some down time as it is sometimes exhausting when supporting two parents with varying degrees of dementia.

The carers were an enormous help and support to my husband and myself over the last 20 months. They were always kind, thoughtful, caring and great cooks too! I recommended them to a friend who is also very happy with their help.

The care is invaluable for me to remain at home. The staff keep me clean and make sure I am fed throughout the day. Staff prompt me to take my medication. Staff do all the things i can no longer manage myself. I am encouraged to continue to do all the hobbies and activities that I used to do with their

support and guidance.

Overall Experience

For the past 2 years Helping Hands have supplied carers for my husband who has dementia. They are very caring, capable patient centered individuals who adapt themselves to the needs of my husband. I have complete confidence in them and I am happily able to go out or stay in. My husband cooks with them,

which he enjoys and we benefit greatly from the results. There have been a few changes in management which haven't really affected us. We have been very lucky to get such reliable excellent carers.

Overall Experience

Helping Hands (Swadlincote) have been caring for my mum since November 2023 and the care they give is excellent. All of the carers are helpful and friendly and assist Mum with her daily routines. They are also very considerate to my dad who doesn't require personal care himself and was at first reluctant

to have people in the house. One of the carers was a massive help to him when he had a medical issue himself and I was uncontactable - she contacted the necessary service and helped to get the problem resolved quickly for which we are very grateful. If ever we've had an issue to address or questions to ask the office and management team have been really helpful.

Overall Experience

Helping Hands has been supporting my mother since September 2023 they offer a professional service with caring and cheerful staff. The carers are always respectful and supportive and their visits brighten my mother's day. They provide valuable feedback to my sister and I that ensures we are able to

we are giving the best possible support.
My mother is now funded by the NHS but we were able to continue with Helping Hands which we were delighted about as mum is familiar with the carers as they are with her.
We hear at lot of laughter during mum's support visits and she seems to enjoy the company of the carers even though she finds her personal care harder to understand or cooperate with. She is always given time and plentiful encouragement and reassurance during visits.
The only issue we would say we have had was with the out of hours service but we have raised this and understand that the issues are being addressed.

I can’t praise the Swadlincote team high enough since we started using them from the beginning of 2023, the care for my mum has been brilliant, the staff are very caring and friendly, it puts my mind at rest knowing they are supporting and caring for Mum. They always let me know if there are any issues

and help provide additional care when required.

Overall Experience

The staff at Helping Hands are well trained in caring for patients who need assistance to shower, dress and help them with the daily routine. Ever since 2021 I started using the company after having a stroke they have been marvellous. Indeed the staff change quite often in the care business but when

new people start they are always introduced to Mum and I. Recently I have had a sinus operation and I had various infections and the staff have attended hospital and driving me to dental and GP appointments. Also when I was ill the carer telephoned 999 and stayed with me until the ambulance arrived. It is marvellous that many of them have become friends. Each week I receive an email with whom is visiting the following week. Management and office staff are so helpful that when I need extra support or change the time of carers they will always oblige me. I must say Helping Hands Swadlincote, due to the various staff members changes, they have been great and helpful at all times.

Mum's carers from Helping Hands are very caring and lovely company for her. She looks forward to them coming as they are always chatty and have good and funny conversations and will fulfill all her needs.
Timekeeping has got a lot better recently and the quality of the team has also improved.
The

team will do most anything you ask of from personal care to cooking lunches.

Overall Experience

My mum received care from Helping Hands for the last few months of her life. Mum was 92 years old when she needed help and although she had reservations due to a poor experience with a different organisation, she agreed to have Helping Hands come into her life and home. She had regular visits by her

carers and she really enjoyed their visits. Nothing was too much trouble and she said “they treated me as me and not some daft old woman”

The care was provided with dignity and respect and I was alerted by the team if they had any concerns. The team made a huge difference to the quality of my mum's final days and were really flexible in their approach to suit my mum's needs.
Thank you.
