Bethel Helping Hands

Bethel Helping Hands sits in Hampton, VA, in the 23666 zip code, where the safety rating is about average, and the Hampton VA Medical Center, which got a good score in a recent Medicare review, is nearby, which is handy for those who need quick access to medical care, and the facility itself is a residential care home designed for small groups, giving it a more home-like, micro-community feel than larger places offer, which means it's usually quieter and people tend to know each other. The community gives seniors a mix of daily help, like with bathing, getting dressed, medication management, and moving around, and there's always someone on staff round-the-clock if help is needed or emergencies come up, plus care for those with incontinence or diabetes and non-ambulatory residents. Services include regular check-ins on everyone, meal preparation three times a day in a main dining room, special attention for food allergies or diabetes, snacks any time, special meal choices, and everything's set up for wheelchairs, too. Residents have furnished rooms, can use shared areas like gardens, community spaces, indoor rooms, and walking paths outside for fresh air, and there's help with laundry, housekeeping, and transportation or parking when needed, while move-in help makes settling in easier. The activity list is simple but covers the basics-movie nights, devotional time, offsite outings, and community-sponsored events-adding routine and social chances. Bethel Helping Hands keeps a well-stocked resource library with books, articles, videos, guides, local event notices, and links, and their resource directory covers over 26,000 programs and services for older adults, which can be useful for families trying to find more help or information. There's not much detailed personal info since the main focus stays on providing daily help, safe living, and access to useful resources for the people who live there.
