About Hands on Rother

We provide care at home in Rotherham, supporting older people and younger adults who need a hand to manage in their own houses and flats. Our work is simple to describe and particular in the doing. We send trained carers to people who need help at home, and we arrange that help around the life somebody already has rather than around our own convenience. For some people a single visit each morning for washing, dressing and medication is enough. Others need calls through the day and into the evening, help with meals and shopping, and support to move about the house safely. We agree what is needed with the person and whoever they want involved, then keep checking that it still fits. Continuity is the part we work hardest at. Care at home only goes well when the person and the carer know one another. A carer who has visited for months notices the small changes that signal somebody is becoming unwell or low in spirits, and the person is spared explaining themselves to a stranger. Our carers are trained for the needs they are asked to meet and can reach a senior colleague whenever they want advice. We do not yet hold an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission and are happy to discuss that openly. If you are considering care at home, please get in touch and we will be honest about what we can take on.
