For more information about live-in care take a look at some of the frequently asked questions below.
Live-in care involves a carer staying in the client's home to provide 24-hour support and assistance. This type of care is ideal for people who need constant care but wish to remain in their own home rather than move to a care facility.
Live-in care is suitable for individuals who need continuous, around-the-clock assistance and supervision. It is often chosen for elderly people, those with disabilities, individuals recovering from surgery or illness, or those with chronic conditions that require frequent care.
Unlike hourly or visiting homecare, which provides services for a few hours a day, live-in care provides continuous support throughout the day and night. The caregiver lives in the home, which allows for immediate and constant access to help whenever needed.
A live-in caregiver typically has their own room in the client's home and shares common areas. It is important that the caregiver's living quarters are comfortable and private, as they are required to stay overnight and be available to assist the client as needed.
Compatibility is crucial in a live-in care arrangement. During our thorough assessments of both the client's needs and preferences along with the caregiver's personality and skills, we ensure a good match. Regular check-ins and adjustments are made as needed to maintain a positive relationship.
Live-in care helps individuals maintain their independence by living at home, provides a higher level of consistency in care, and can enhance the client's quality of life by offering companionship and security. It also ensures peace of mind for family members, knowing that their loved one is not alone and has someone available at all times.
Every local authority makes their criteria available on request. Based on an assessment of the person's financial situation and the eligibility of their care needs, the local authority will decide who is to pay for the care, whether it be the person themselves, the local authority, or a combination of both.
Our live-in care packages start from just £1,295 per week.
