Live In Care Benefits

Staying at home means you can keep control of your life, with treasured memories and possessions around you. It avoids the stress and uncertainty of moving into a care home.

The simple things many of us take for granted can be maintained, such as the time you get up and when you eat.

Even the very best care homes cannot offer one-to-one care and support and build relationships in the same way.

It’s not uncommon that the need for one person to move into a care home can mean couples are separated, at a time of life when this is the least desirable option.

Older people are especially vulnerable to loneliness and social isolation, which can lead to depression and serious declines in physical health and wellbeing. The companionship of a live-in care worker, for example, to share meals with, has a highly positive impact.

With someone there to support you outside the home, social connections with the local community can be maintained; from groups, to church, pubs or your favourite park.

The cost of care is comparable if not more cost effective than a care home and is considerably cheaper for couples, who would normally be charged double for two rooms in a care home.

Saying goodbye to a beloved pet can be heart breaking. With live-in care, your pet will be looked after too.

Family have the peace of mind and reassurance day and night that someone is always there.
