Live-in Care 

Live-in home care gives you a familiar face, continuity of care, and round the clock support. 

About Live-in Care 

Live-in care means that your caregiver or caregivers will live with you full-time, providing invaluable reassurance, continuity of care and access to support around the clock, empowering you to stay independent in your own home. 
 
We’ll match you with a live-in caregiver that shares your interests, values and experiences, to make sure you’re comfortable with them at home from day one. 

Your live-in home caregiver will provide support based on your individual needs, which can be as hands-on or hands-off as you like. 
 
Live-in caregivers undergo a thorough screening process, including police checks, and receiving in-depth onboarding training to ensure they deliver our high standards of care.

This is the first time in four weeks, maybe longer that Dad and I both feel at ease. We trust Poppa is safe and well cared for. I don’t know what we’d do without all of you. We appreciate you’re entire team so much!

How Live-in Care Works 

With live-in home care, your caregiver will move into a spare room in your house. That means they’re on call to give you care or help whenever you need it, to a set number of hours per week, and you have peace of mind knowing that somebody is always there. 

Why Choose Home Care 

Staying at home where you feel comfortable, familiar, and empowered to live independently may be the best option for older people or people living with a disability who need additional care.

What is live-in home care? 

Live-in home care is when a caregiver moves into a spare room in your house, so that they’re always there in case you need help. They’ll give you the care you need, plus they’ll help out around the house and keep you company. 

How do I get started with live in care? 

To get started with live-in care, contact us and we’ll conduct a thorough assessment to make sure you receive the care that’s right for you. 

What help is available within live in-home care services? 

Live-in home care is flexible, and can consist of many types of care, either for specific illnesses or disabilities, or general care and help around the house as you get older. 

How much does live in home care cost? 

Live-in home care is different for everyone, and some people need more care than others. Contact us for a personalised quote. 

What is the difference between live in care and 24-hour care? 

24-hour care means that caregivers come on shifts and make sure you are actively cared for 24 hours a day. With live in care, one caregiver moves into your house, and they will care for you for a proportion of the day and remain on-call during the night; they don’t provide direct care for 24 hours a day.
