Live In Care

Greater Independence

With Live In care you will have tailor made, one-to one support in your own home. In a care or nursing home it is common for schedules to be set on your behalf, it is not uncommon for a ratio of four clients to sometimes one staff member, with an average of three to four hours of care being provided to you. In a hospital setting, this increases to around eight patients to one nurse.

A live-in care and support assistant is a highly trained individual who lives with you in your own home. With live in care you will be able to lead the life you have become accustomed to at home, Your care and support assistant can accompany you on outings and support you with activities and interests that you may not have been able to do for some time.

Overnight Care

It's Cost Effective

Our weekly cost start from £1000, dependent on your level of need; this works out cheaper than most good care homes. The cost saving is greater when a couple living together both need support, as one live-in carer can be shared, compared to paying for two individual care home fees. If you already receive hourly care, there is a cost saving after 7.5 hours of hourly support due to a reduced rate, better still the benefits are always greater by having a care and support assistant available. 

Recent research by the Alzheimer’s Society says 85% of people do not want to go into a care home. With our live in care and support assistants, you are able to maintain ownership of your home meaning you can continue to live in a familiar environment – which is essential for mental health and well being. With live-in care, you are also able to live closely to family, friends and neighbours, plus staying with your treasured pets that provide essential company and comfort. You will be able to continue to participate in established social events and interests.
