Meet The Manager
Sue Edge is Area Care Manager at Helping Hands Home Care Liverpool.
I support the Wirral, Chester, Liverpool, Warrington, Nantwich, Macclesfield and Wilmslow branches. I have an extensive background in care and started my career as a carer around 20 years ago. I quickly progressed to a senior carer, a care coordinator, team leader and then registered branch manager. I followed a career in care after looking after my mum who had a brain hemorrhage and a stroke at 43. Care fitted in around my young family and I gained great job satisfaction knowing I had made a difference to somebody's day. As my family grew up, I was able to develop my skills and progress through the company. I joined Helping Hands in 2019 as the Registered Branch Manager at the Wirral branch and moved to my current role in January 2022. I enjoy spending time with my friends, walking the dog and watching my son play football - much to his embarrassment!
Because, life is better at home.
There are many benefits to opting for home care rather than a care home. But by choosing Helping Hands Liverpool, there is one real, unique difference: bespoke home care from a carer who’s completely dedicated to you or your loved one.
Helping Hands is a fully managed care provider, this means your care is completely regulated by the CQC and CIW, it is managed by a local team, all costs are included, and we will provide a replacement carer if your usual carer is ill or unsuitable. We also provide our carers with fantastic employee benefits, such as holiday pay and a pension package, to ensure that we retain the very best carers to look after you or your loved one.
We’ve been caring for people in their own homes in Liverpool for three decades. Whether you need visiting care a few times a week or round-the-clock live-in care, there are many benefits to opting for a home care service over a care home. Here are just a handful:
- Stay in the comfort of your home, with nurse-led support if needed
- Personal, one-to-one attention from your chosen carer
- Keep your existing lifestyle and daily routines
- Choose what you eat and when you eat
- Pets can stay with you at home
If you or a loved one have recently been discharged from hospital or are being discharged imminently, you may need a bit of extra help around the home until you’re back on your feet. A Helping Hands carer can help your recovery through assisting with physio, mobility and medication, as well as providing practical assistance around the home and discreetly aiding with personal care routines.
It might be that you yourself are receiving care and would like a travelling companion to accompany you on your dream holiday whilst providing specialist support. Whatever your reason for needing short-term support, we’ll make sure your respite carer fully understands your requirements and preferences, so that we can help you enjoy the right type and level of care.
Our team in Liverpool can support you and your needs in the comfort of your own home covering Anfield, Birkenhead, Everton, Bootle, Liverpool, Toxteth, Wavertree, Aigburth, and the surrounding areas.
