Video or phone visits

Sit with your family, ask anything, leave with a plan.

Care clarity

Plain-language plans

Every step

Coordinated for you

Concierge services

A nurse in your corner, every step of the way.

From a single, pressing question to ongoing care navigation — choose the level of support that fits your family.

Care Plan Review

We walk through diagnoses, hospital discharge instructions, and specialist notes — and turn them into a clear, prioritized plan you can actually follow.

Medication Reconciliation

A careful review of every prescription, over-the-counter product, and supplement to flag interactions, duplications, and dosing concerns before they become problems.

Family Consultations

Bring the whole family — or the adult children far away — into one video call with a nurse who answers questions plainly and calmly.

Care Coordination

Help preparing questions for appointments, locating the right specialists, and organizing records so nothing falls through the cracks.

Hospital-to-Home Support

The first weeks after a discharge are the riskiest. We help you understand what to watch for and who to call, remotely and promptly.

Ongoing Nurse Concierge

A steady point of contact for new symptoms, new medications, or new decisions — with direct access to a Registered Nurse rather than a call center.

Not sure which service fits? Start with a free, no-pressure conversation.

01

Clarity first

We start with the questions that actually change decisions, not every detail that could be known.

02

Plain language, always

No jargon left unexplained. If you leave with a word you don't understand, we haven't finished.

03

Steady, unhurried presence

Care conversations move at the pace of the people living them — especially when the whole family is on the call.

Why Helping Hands

Clinical judgment, human warmth.

Most families don't need more information — they need someone who can make sense of it. Helping Hands pairs registered nursing expertise with the patient, unhurried attention of a concierge.

Everything happens remotely, so you're never asked to drive, sit in a waiting room, or rearrange your day. Just a secure call, a clear explanation, and a written plan you can keep.

  • Talk directly with a Registered Nurse — no gatekeepers.
  • Plans and notes written in plain language, emailed to you.
  • Built for families coordinating care across distances.
  • Fully remote, private, and scheduled around your life.

How it works

Three steps to a clearer path

Simple, remote, and respectful of your time — most families are scheduled within two business days.

01

Tell us what's happening

Share a short note about your situation — a new diagnosis, a discharge, medication confusion, or just a feeling that something isn't right.

02

Meet your nurse

We schedule a secure phone or video consultation. Bring your questions, your paperwork, and anyone in the family who should be part of the conversation.

03

Leave with a plan

You receive a written summary: what matters now, what to watch for, which questions to ask, and how to reach us as things evolve.

Who we help

Built for families in the middle of it

Adult children caring from afar

You're managing a parent's health from another city or state. We're your local eyes and clinical voice — without a plane ticket.

People juggling new diagnoses

A recent diagnosis comes with a binder full of terms. We sit with you and explain what matters first, in words that make sense.

Patients leaving the hospital

Discharge instructions are dense and the first week is critical. We help you understand the plan and spot warning signs early.

Request a consultation

Let's make sense of it together.

Tell us a little about your situation. We'll follow up to schedule your free 15-minute discovery call — no forms at the doctor's office, no waiting rooms, no pressure.

  • Phone or secure video — your choice
  • Written summary after every consultation
  • Private, confidential, and never shared
