Support during your stay

At Lending Hands In Care Ltd, we understand that needing care should not necessarily prevent someone from enjoying a holiday, visiting family or spending time away from their usual home.

We welcome enquiries from holidaymakers and visitors who require temporary or ad-hoc care and support during their stay.

Whether you are visiting for a short break, staying with family or spending time in the local area, talk to us about the support you may need.

Support planned around your stay

Depending on your assessed needs and our availability, temporary support may include:

  • Personal care
  • Assistance with morning or evening routines
  • Medication support within our agreed scope
  • Mobility and everyday living support
  • Companionship
  • Assistance with meals and daily activities
  • Short-term support for existing care needs
  • Other agreed care identified through assessment
  • Care will still be individually assessed and planned, even where it is required only for a short period.

Where appropriate, we can communicate with the individual, their family or authorised representative and relevant professionals to help understand the person's existing care arrangements before support begins.

Planning your visit

We recommend contacting us as early as possible before your holiday or visit. This gives our team time to discuss your requirements, complete the necessary assessment and care planning, and confirm whether we have suitable staff available.

All temporary and ad-hoc care is subject to assessment and availability.

Enjoy your stay with greater peace of mind

Our aim is to help people continue receiving the support they need while enjoying their time away from home.
