Frequently Asked Questions
What is live-in care?
Live-in care means a professional carer moves into your home to provide round-the-clock support. This allows you or your loved one to remain in familiar surroundings while receiving personalised, one-to-one care. It is sometimes called 24-hour home care or live-in home care.
How much does live-in care cost?
Live-in care typically costs from £1,750 to £2,000 per week depending on the level of care required. This is often comparable to or less than a good residential care home, with the added benefit of staying at home. Couples sharing a carer can save significantly.
Is live-in care better than a care home?
Many families prefer live-in care because it offers one-to-one attention, continuity of carer, familiar surroundings, and the ability to keep pets and maintain routines. It's particularly beneficial for those with dementia or complex neurological conditions.
How quickly can live-in care be arranged?
We typically arrange live-in care within a few days. This allows us time to carry out a thorough care assessment, build a personalised care plan, and carefully match you with the right carer based on your specific needs and preferences.
Are your carers qualified?
All our carers are fully vetted with enhanced DBS checks, and have completed comprehensive training including specialist dementia care, medication management, palliative care and first aid. Our carers are experienced in supporting complex conditions including Parkinson's, MS and stroke recovery.
What does a live-in carer actually do?
A live-in carer provides personal care, meal preparation, medication management, companionship, light housekeeping, accompanied outings, and overnight support. Some provide specialist nursing-level care or companion care depending on your needs.
Can I arrange private live-in care?
Yes. Many families choose private, self-funded live-in care for its flexibility and personalisation. We also help with NHS Continuing Healthcare, local authority funding and attendance allowance applications.
