Live-in 24/7 Care
There is no place like home - especially when you’re cared for
Your home, your care, your way
Your home. Your wishes. Our care
It’s good to feel at home with live-in care
We believe everyone deserves to wake up in their own bed, surrounded by the comfort of their home for as long as possible. To look out at the same view from the kitchen window, to hear the familiar sounds in the garden, and to feel a deep sense of belonging in their space.
That’s exactly what Live-in Care is all about. It allows your loved ones to continue living the life they know and love, with 24-hour, one-to-one support from a compassionate carer who’s there to help them stay safe, well, and completely at ease in the place they feel best, “home”
What is Live-In Care?
Live-in care means having a fully trained, compassionate carer living alongside your loved one in the comfort of their own home delivering personalised support that’s tailored to their daily needs and lifestyle. It’s about enabling them to stay in the place that holds their memories, where every room brings comfort and every corner feels like home.
With a dedicated Live-in Carer, there’s no need to move into residential care simply because care needs have changed. Your loved one can continue enjoying life on their own terms, with the support of a trusted carer who is there to assist with everything from personal care and medication to companionship, meals, and daily routines.
Our Live-in Care options are flexible. Whether you need care for 12 hours a day with a scheduled two-hour personal break for the carer, or full 24-hour coverage supported by a team of two carers, we’ll help you choose the right arrangement.
What stays constant is our unwavering commitment to helping your loved one live safely, confidently, and with dignity — right where they belong.
