Live In Care

Logically, most people resist moving away from familiar surroundings and want to carry on living in the place that they know and love for as long as they can. Home is the place where we belong: with memories of happy family occasions, much loved possessions and comfort
in the familiarity of our day to day routines.

For many people, as they grow older, a little support with day to day tasks is enough help to keep them safe and comfortable at home. For others who need more support, live in care provides the independence and flexibility of living in familiar surroundings with the security
and comfort provided by having a trained professional on hand always. This makes live in care the preferred option to moving to a nursing home or sheltered accommodation.

We can provide long term live in care workers who are experienced and trained to provide ‘round the clock’ support to either a single person or a couple: making sure that your household and your life continues to run the way that you want it. The care worker is supported by a dedicated team who makes sure that you’re receiving the quality of support that you require and is available at short notice to provide back up for any issues that may arise.

Sometimes you’re cared for at home by a family member. We’re happy to provide short term support for when they need a break or they’re not feeling so good themselves.
