What home help includes

Typical tasks are cleaning and tidying, laundry and ironing, changing beds, food shopping and collecting prescriptions, preparing meals, help with post and bills, and getting out to appointments or the shops. Many people also value the company. Home help does not include personal care such as washing, dressing or help with medication: for that you need a home care agency registered with the Care Quality Commission.

Agency, cleaner or council?

Many home care agencies in Beeston provide home help as well as personal care, which is useful if needs grow. A cleaner or a local "home help" service can be cheaper for housework alone, but is not regulated by CQC. Some councils and charities run low-cost help-at-home or shopping services. Getting assessed by Nottinghamshire council.

Paying for home help

Home help is usually charged by the hour, at or just below the rate for visiting care. Nottinghamshire council may include practical help in a care plan if a care needs assessment finds eligible needs, though help with housework alone often does not qualify. Attendance Allowance, which is not means-tested, is often used to pay for it. See home help for the elderly and home help vs home care.

Questions about home help in Beeston

Who provides home help in Beeston?

Ask each agency: CQC keeps no record of who provides home help. Of the 225 registered agencies that have an office within 7 miles of Beeston, 103 are rated Good or Outstanding.

What does home help cost in Beeston?

Expect an hourly charge close to the local visiting care rate, sometimes slightly less for housework only. Check the minimum visit length and weekend rates before you book.

Can I get home help from the council?

Only as part of meeting eligible needs after an assessment by Nottinghamshire council; housework on its own rarely qualifies. Attendance Allowance, which ignores savings, is often used to pay for home help.

No. Home help is practical help with housework, shopping and errands. Home care, or personal care, includes help with washing, dressing, eating and medication, and must be provided by an agency registered with the Care Quality Commission.
