What to Know Before Beginning Live in Care in Reading

How Live in Care in Reading Differs to Visiting Care

Live-in care in Reading differs from visiting care in that you have someone living in your home with you at all times. This is reassuring not just for you but also for your loved ones who want to know that you’re being looked after as well as possible. This is especially important if your family live some distance from you and don’t get to see you as much as they would like.

Because we’ve been delivering exceptional live-in care for so many years it’s no surprise we’re the UK’s most trusted home care provider. We focus on tailor-made care that take all of your preferences into account and supports your routine fully. We get to know you really well so that we can deliver the personalised care that we’re famous for.

Who Can Benefit from Reading Live in Care?

People in and around Reading choose our live-in care for so many reasons personal to them. Some people are keenly missing the companionship of a loved one who has passed away, while other people are living with complex health conditions that necessitate round-the-clock care.

Our carers can support with every aspect of your daily routine, including personal care, medication, laundry, and housework. Or they’ll focus on keeping you company and helping you to get out and about in your local community, whatever you prefer.

Key Considerations Before Beginning Care

Home care in Reading delivered by Helping Hands is a great choice for most people, but before you decide to choose live-in care you should think carefully about what you would like from us and how we can best support you.

Care Requirements

Do you have major care needs that would be best managed by our clinical team? Or do you just want some low-level support and companionship? We help people with all kinds of needs to live as well and as independently as possible.

Costs

You will know how much you want to pay for your care and whether you are eligible for local authority support. Whether you’re paying privately or getting funding, we’ll always keep your costings transparent and easy to understand.

Carer Qualities

You and your loved ones will certainly want to know that the person coming to live with you is knowledgeable, experienced, and suited to your needs. We carefully screen our carers to ensure they have all the qualities we’re looking for.
