What is live-in care?

Live-in care is when a fully trained carer comes and lives with you in your home full-time. Carers support you with daily activities, personal hygiene, companionship and specialist care so you can live a better quality of life and be well looked after whilst remaining at home.

Our live-in care service is a direct alternative to moving into a care home. Live-in care allows you to receive fully personalised care and support in the comfortable and familiar surroundings of your own home – without the stress of leaving your home.

How live-in care works

One of our carers will come to live with you in your home to provide a customised plan of care and support. We will help to prepare the type of care you need based on discussions and input from you, your loved ones and other professionals (e.g. GPs, nurses, etc.) who are involved in your care.

Our live-in carers meet more than just your care needs. We work with you to create a personalised care plan that incorporates your goals, hobbies and personal interests as well.

Our live-in carer can help you with:

Personal care: Includes bathing, dressing, and continence support, as well as self-esteem care-including nail and hair grooming.

Companionship: Our carers are matched to your values and interests so that you’re supported with emotional and psychological needs.

Managing medications: Our Carers use an electronic system for proactive medication management, which is closely monitored by our live-in care team.

Planning and cooking meals: Our carers will plan and cook meals according to your preferences, nutritional needs, and schedule—all served at a time that suits you.

Pet care: Our Carers will happily support looking after your pet, including dog walking, cleaning their homes and providing regular food and love.

Trips around the community: Staying connected to your community is great for your well-being, which is why our carers will support you to access activities you enjoy.

Specialist care: Our carers work with specialist nurses and other professionals in the community to organise health care tasks for those with complex health needs.

Domestic tasks: Includes light housework, watering your plants and taking the bins out – keeping your house to the standards of cleanliness and tidiness you always have.

Ensuring safe mobility: Our live-in care team collaborates with occupational therapists to get expert advice on equipment and home adaptations, improving mobility and minimising falls.

This personalised approach allows for control, choice, independence and peace of mind.

24 hours care: If you are looking for uninterrupted care, 24 hours a day, we have different care solutions to ensure someone is always on hand to support you, day or night. So if you don't at this time need live-in care but could use the support of 24-hour care by arrangement - we can discuss your needs with you.

I can't thank Neways live-in caregiver enough for the incredible support they provided. They were not just a helper, but a true companion to my loved one. Their kindness and attentiveness brought so much comfort and joy to our home. I highly recommend this service to anyone in need of compassionate care.

A very real alternative to residential care

Here at Neways at Home we understand it is not easy to for anyone to decide to move out of their home. People of all ages may not want to move into care homes or residential care facilities. Our live-in care or 24-hour packages offer a direct alternative, so you can continue to live in your own home. Live-in care may also be more cost-effective than residential care, especially when considering the level of personalised attention provided.

Maintain choice and independence

A great aspect of staying at home and receiving care is that you can maintain as much independence as possible and make choices about all aspects of your home and life. Live-in care provides the flexibility to decide what you want to do, such as going for a walk, visiting a family member, or enjoying a meal at your favourite place.

Live-in care frequently asked questions (FAQs)

A live-in carer will be with you most of the day and night. If you or the individual being cared for has difficulties during the night and needs help - the live-in carer will accommodate this and sleep at either arranged times or in-between offering this high level of support.

Ensuring the individual's needs are met and that they are safe and well will take priority over rest times.

Of course. You will be matched with the most appropriate carers and then get to meet one, two or even more of them before choosing who you'd like to be your live-in carer.

If once arrangements start you find you are not as compatible as you would have liked to have been with the carer - we can discuss this and potentially match you with a new carer with adequate notice.
