What is Live-in Care?
Live-in care is an increasingly popular alternative to care homes for people who require round-the-clock support, but would prefer to stay in their own home.
Whether it’s being near friends and family, maintaining routines or staying part of a much-loved community, live-in care prevents people from having to choose between independent living and their safety and comfort.
Live-in carers stay in the home of their clients to support them to live the lifestyle they enjoy. Being in the family home means our carers are available 24/7, while respecting the individual’s independence and privacy.
The benefits of live-in care:
- Greater independence for the individual
- Freedom to stay in the family home
- Proximity to community services, family or friends
- Carers fit around your routines and lifestyle
- Personalised care plans provide tailored support
- A familiar face and companionship
While live-in care is a great option for anyone seeking full-time support, it can be particularly valuable for people living with Dementia, where moving to a new environment may cause unnecessary stress and anxiety. Live-in carers provide peace of mind that there’ll always be someone there when you need them.
