What to Know Before Beginning Live in Care in Wokingham

How Live in Care in Wokingham Differs to Visiting Care

It can be hard to know where to begin when you’re considering home care in Wokingham. Should you choose visiting or live-in care? And what are the differences? Well, visiting care begins from an hour or two a week, up to as many visits as you need to help you continue with your routine, whereas live-in care means you’ll have a carer living in your home with you. Many people find this preferable to moving out of their home and into residential care, as they get to experience one-to-one support in an environment they find comforting and familiar.
