Home care in Skelmersdale
Visiting care and home care in Skelmersdale
If you’re looking for exceptional care at home in Skelmersdale, then you need to talk to Helping Hands. Our visiting and live-in care is exceptional, supporting people to live well at home and as independently as possible. Our carers are compassionate and caring and they’ll help you with every aspect of your daily routine, such as personal care, housework, laundry, meal preparation and medication.
Despite being a new town, Skelmersdale does have historic roots, even appearing in the Domesday Book of 1086. If your mobility allows, your carer will also help you to get out of the house more, enabling you to make the most of West Lancashire and reduce the risk of social isolation.

Branch Care Manager
I started working for the Wigan branch in 2022 and I have since progressed within the company to reach my dream of becoming Wigan's Branch Manager. I am proud to work for Helping Hands as we pride ourselves on going above and beyond and the support, we receive is outstanding. I was inspired to work in the care industry when my Grandad was Diagnosed with Dementia, and I saw firsthand the great work care workers do.

Other care we provide
High quality home care in Skelmersdale
We’re not like other home care providers at Helping Hands. Our premium service is delivered by the very best carers who have compassion at heart. We understand how much your home means to you, whether you’ve lived there for decades or recently moved. We’ll always work within the boundaries of your daily routine and follow your care plan to the letter, making sure that you get to live your days the way you want to.
24/7 live in care support
Live-in care takes things a step further, meaning you’ll never be alone at home, day and night. This offers the highest levels of reassurance for both you and your loved ones that you’ll be supported around the clock. We support people with the highest levels of clinical needs, with nurse-managed packages that enable people to continue living at home, to lower-level, age-related frailties requiring a little support. Whatever your circumstances, we’ll be there for you.
Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Skelmersdale
We’ve never been a care agency, and that matters. That’s because care agencies operate differently to private care companies. Care agencies expect their carers to be self-employed, or worse, they require the person needing care to organise their employment. This isn’t what you should be burdened with when you need care! Helping Hands select, train, and employ all of our carers directly, meaning they get looked after as well as they look after you.
Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Skelmersdale
We’re fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission, and we’ve been established since 1989. This means you can trust us to deliver the highest quality home care, as we really do know what we’re doing. We’ve grown over the decades to encompass 155 branches across England and Wales, and a significant presence in Lancashire. We choose our carers carefully and we look for natural qualities of compassion and kindness over experience. We then equip them with all the practical skills they’ll need throughout their Helping Hands career.
