What is live in care?<\/h2>\n \n \n \n

If you or a loved one are managing a disability, living with dementia or just need more regular support, live-in care can provide the practical help that\u2019s needed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

By choosing live-in care, you avoid the move to a care home, can choose your carer and be confident the care will truly meet your individual needs and preferences. You can continue to live well in the home and community you love.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n

How do you find the right live in carer?<\/h2>\n \n \n \n

All our live-in carers are handpicked for their kindness, patience, and empathy. They care for you or your family as we\u2019d want our own families to be cared for.\u00a0<\/span>Y<\/span>our local care manager will match you with a number of carers, based on your needs and you can then choose who you think best suits you.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We directly employ and train all our professional carers to the trusted Helping Hands standard giving you extra peace of mind. Our carers are also supported by\u00a0<\/span>a team of\u00a0<\/span>specialist nurses<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n Are live in care and 24-hour care the same? <\/div>\n

\n 24 hour care\u00a0is a term often used to describe the round-the-clock care that someone feels they need for themselves or a family member.\u00a0Live-In care provides this 24-hour assistance in your home, giving you the practical support you need, in surroundings you know and love.\u00a0 <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n 24 hour care <\/span>\n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Why do people choose live in care?<\/h2>\n \n \n \n

M<\/span>ost<\/span>\u00a0people choose live<\/span>\u2013<\/span>in care because they need\u00a0<\/span>ongoing\u00a0<\/span>practical\u00a0<\/span>support<\/span>\u00a0to continue to live in the home they love<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For families<\/span>,\u00a0<\/span>especially for those that live some distance away,\u00a0<\/span>live-in care provides peace of mind\u00a0<\/span>that\u00a0<\/span>a loved one\u00a0<\/span>has the help they need<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is also the added reassurance that a carer can help to maintain overall wellbeing, day to day, and potentially sport any additional challenges that might arise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n

What's included in live in care?<\/h2>\n \n

Live-in care is completely tailored to you, your needs and preferences.<\/p>\n \n \n

These needs might include help with personal care, household chores or meal preparation to helping you get out and about to enjoy hobbies, visit the shops or take a day trip.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Alternatively, you may have more complex needs and require help with management of a catheter or stoma or need support because you\u2019re living with dementia or cancer. We are here.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Because everyone is different, the cost of care depends on what you need. Give us a call to get a free assessment. We\u2019re transparent about our live-in care costs and there are no hidden fees or charges.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
