One to One Care, in Your Own Home

For many people, the thought of leaving home to move into residential care is deeply unsettling. Live-in care offers another way. A trained carer lives with you, supporting your daily routine and being there when you need them, while you stay surrounded by your own belongings, memories, neighbours and pets.

Because your carer is with you every day, they get to know you well: how you take your tea, the programmes you enjoy and the small things that make a good day. That continuity brings comfort to you and genuine peace of mind to your family.

Live-in care is part of our wider domiciliary care service and can include personal care, medication support, meals, housework and companionship.

What Live-in Care Includes

Your live-in carer supports you with everything set out in your personal care plan, which can include:

  • Personal Care

    Respectful help with washing, dressing, grooming and getting up or going to bed.

  • Medication Support

    Prompting and, where authorised, administration, recorded every day.

  • Meals and Nutrition

    Planning, shopping for and cooking home made meals the way you like them.

  • Running the Home

    Light housework, laundry and keeping your home clean, tidy and safe.

  • Companionship

    Conversation, hobbies, outings and help staying in touch with family and friends.

Visiting Care or Live-in Care?

Both help you stay at home. The right choice depends on how much support you need and when.

How Live-in Care Works

We plan live-in care carefully so it works well for you and for your carer.

  • Careful Matching. We match you with a carer based on your needs, personality, interests and preferences.

  • A Private Room. Your carer will need their own bedroom in your home.

  • Daily Breaks. Like everyone, carers need rest. We agree daily break times that keep you safe and supported.

  • Planned Cover. When your carer takes time off, we arrange a familiar replacement so your care continues.
