About Helping Hands Harpenden

Helping Hands Harpenden provides care at home for people across St Albans, Harpenden and the surrounding parts of Hertfordshire. We believe most people manage far better at home than anywhere else, provided the right help turns up at the right time and comes from somebody they have come to trust. Our carers visit older people who need assistance with personal care, medication, meals or mobility, and we support people living with dementia, where familiar surroundings and a familiar face are often the most valuable things on offer. We also work with people living with a physical disability, people who have sight or hearing loss, and younger adults who want support that helps them stay independent. Every arrangement begins with a proper conversation about how somebody likes things done, including what they would rather manage alone. We review support as needs change, keep families informed where that is wanted, and plan for continuity rather than leaving it to chance. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Good. If you are thinking about care at home in this part of Hertfordshire, get in touch and we will come out, talk it through and be honest about what we can offer.
