About Helping Hands Enfield

Helping Hands Enfield supports people in their own homes in Waltham Abbey and across the surrounding area. We work with older people, people living with dementia, adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, people living with mental ill health, people 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 or autism is involved. A familiar carer who knows the routine, the house and the person makes a visit work in a way a stranger cannot. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please ring us to talk things through.
