How can our Live in Carers in York help you?

A live-in carer in York can support you with day-to-day life so you can stay living comfortably at home. This might include help with personal care, cooking, cleaning, transport, medication reminders, pet care or simply keeping you company. We’ll always take time to get to know your needs so the support feels natural and personal to you. If your needs change, your carer will adapt the care as needed.

Why you may need Live in Care


Live-in care works well in many different situations. You may be recovering from illness, living with a long-term condition, or finding that occasional visits no longer give you enough support through the day and night. Having a carer living with you gives you consistent help while letting you stay in familiar surroundings.

Carers for limited hour visits

If live-in care is not the right fit yet, we also provide visiting carers who can come at set times. This could be morning support, evening routines, or daytime visits for help and companionship. It’s a flexible option that still gives you reliable care when you need it.

Intermittent long-term visits

Some people rely partly on family support but need a bit of extra help to keep everything running smoothly. Regular care visits can ease pressure on relatives while making sure you’ve always got support when required. Your York Care Manager will build a plan around your existing routine.
