Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Helping Hands have been looking after our mother at home for the past 3 years. They have been very flexible, increasing and decreasing the number of visits depending on Mum's care needs over the years and have always been extremely reliable come sunshine or snow! The Helping Hands team have been caring
and attentive and spent time getting to know Mum and chatting with her whilst undertaking their duties which have been of particular benefit during the isolating times of Covid. The team have also communicated promptly and effectively with family when needed. The services provided have allowed Mum to maintain her independence for as long as possible in the comfort of her own home and Mum has always been treated with dignity and respect.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.708 for Helping Hands Home Care (Derby) is calculated as follows: ( (55 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.708

Job Title: Branch Care Manager

About me


As a branch care manager for Derby, it is my responsibility to lead both the branch and community team to ensure that the day-to-day operations of the branch run smoothly whilst adhering to CQC regulations and adhering to Helping Hand's values and principles. I strive to make a positive environment for all and ensure the customers are safe and free from any harm or abuse. As a leader, my goal is to ensure the carers have the right tools to do their job and are equipped with as much knowledge as to feel appreciated and valued. This way, I can assure the customers are receiving the best care they deserve.


Experience and expertise


I have 15 years of experience in hospitality management, focusing my time on customer service and management. I moved to Derby in 2017 where I started my career at Helping Hands as a carer. My aim was to exceed customers' expectations in their own homes. Given the right tools and support, I grew within the company in every role before becoming a branch care manager.


Why I chose Helping Hands


The care we provide is tailored to the customers' needs and unique to them. It would be hard for me to sell something I never believed in; I believe in the care the carers provide and I believe in the company and the standards that it upholds.
