Common Questions Families Ask
When families in Camberley and Woking begin exploring live-in care, they often have similar questions:
- What does a live-in carer actually do?
A live-in carer provides in home support throughout the day or evening as part of a care package tailored to the client’s needs. This may include personal care, meal preparation, medication reminders, help around the home, and friendly companionship. - Will my loved one still have privacy?
Absolutely. We carefully match our carers to clients, ensuring compatibility, respect for personal space, and a balance between support and enabling independence. - How does live-in care compare to residential care?
Live-in care allows clients to remain in their own home - surrounded by familiar surroundings, pets, and neighbours - while still receiving professional support. This often makes the transition into home care far less disruptive than moving into a residential setting. - Is live-in care suitable for all levels of need?
Yes. Our home care services in Camberley and Woking can be adapted to a wide range of needs, from companionship and light daily assistance to complex care requirements and also end of life or palliative care.
Signs It Might Be Time to Consider Live-in Care

- Increasing difficulty with daily tasks such as washing, dressing, cooking, or moving around the home.

- Social isolation, where a loved one is spending most of their time alone or feeling lonely.
- Carer burnout, where a family member providing care is feeling exhausted or overwhelmed.
