About

Helping Hands Oxford is a home care agency run by Midshires Care Ltd, based in Oxford, Oxfordshire. It delivers care and support in people's own homes rather than in a residential setting, and its specialist focus is dementia. The agency supports people living with dementia, older people aged 65 and over, younger adults under 65, and people with physical disabilities, sensory impairments or learning disabilities. According to its own website, it offers personalised care to suit each person's needs and lifestyle, including for those with ongoing, progressive or terminal conditions arising from ageing, accident or injury, with the aim of helping people continue living in their local community. The Care Quality Commission rated the agency Good overall, with Good ratings for each of the five key questions: safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led.
