Live-in care in three simple steps…
Starts with a quick call to understand your needs
Let us understand your situation so we can match and support you with the perfect carer.
Choose from carers who best match your lifestyle
From understanding your care needs, we will present you with several bespoke options that fit your needs and leave the decision to you.
Meet your carer and begin your care as soon as possible!
We aim to ensure your care is set up and running as soon as possible – allowing you to get the support you require in your hour of need.
What do you get with live-in care?
Because your live-in carer will live with you in your home, they can support you at any time – day and night – in whatever way you require. This also offers valuable peace of mind to your loved ones.
If you’re living with a complex medical condition, a live-in carer will get to understand your specific needs and preferences so that they can always offer the right type and level of support for your condition.
One of the main benefits of a live-in carer is that they can support you to continue living life at your own pace and on your own terms, including eating meals and going to bed when you like.
Our live-in care service is fully managed by your local Helping Hands branch, meaning you’re guaranteed a fully-trained carer, full carer cover, all-inclusive pricing and the support of your local care manager.
Your live-in carer will be able to help you keep up all your favourite hobbies and interests – whether you’re a keen gardener, part of a book club, have a particular TV show you want to watch together, or enjoy hosting friends.
Not only can a live-in carer help you attend social engagements, they also become a great friend to many of their customers. All of our carers are hired for their friendly, compassionate personalities.
