Frequently Asked Questions
What is live-in care?
Live-in care provides comprehensive one-to-one support in the familiar surroundings of your own home. A trained and friendly Live-in Carer moves in to help with personal care, mobility, medication support, housekeeping, meal preparation, companionship, and more.
Unlike visiting care, where a Carer attends for set periods, live-in care offers constant, adaptable support tailored to your needs and preferences. It's ideal for those who require more regular assistance but want to remain living independently.
Families often choose live-in care in situations such as:
- Progressive conditions like dementia or Parkinson’s
- Recovery after hospital stays
- Mobility challenges that require day-to-day assistance
- A desire for consistent companionship and support
- Avoiding the upheaval of moving into a residential home
How does live-in care work?
A Right at Home Carer will live with you in your home, delivering a bespoke plan of care and support. We’ll help to define the type of care you need, following input from you, your loved ones, and other professionals involved in your care.
Our live-in Carers meet more than just your physical needs; we work with you to create a personalised care plan which incorporates your goals and personal interests. A Right at Home live-in home caregiver can support you to complete activities, errands and shopping, amongst many other things. This tailored approach allows for control, choice, independence and peace of mind.
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. If more intensive support is required, our 24-hour live-in care options provide peace of mind around the clock.
If you are a family carer looking to go on holiday, our respite care services offer high-quality care for your loved one whilst you take a well-deserved break. We can also assist family carers who are looking for more regular support, to enable them to take a daily or weekly break from their caregiving duties.
How much does live-in cost?
Costs vary depending on your needs and the type of support you require. We’ll build a plan that offers the right care and best value — and we regularly review your support to make sure it continues to meet your needs.
You may be eligible for local authority funding through Westminster City Council or Camden Council, depending on your financial circumstances and care requirements. If you’re unsure where to start, we can help guide you through the process or work alongside your social worker to coordinate care that’s right for you.
Live-in care is a cost-effective alternative to a residential care home. Your live-in Carer will take up residence in your home for an agreed period, and the cost will vary depending on the types of care you require.
How long can live-in care be arranged for?
Live-in care can be arranged on a short-term basis, for example during recovery from illness, or on a longer-term basis if ongoing support is needed. Whether you need temporary care or a long-term solution, we tailor our services to suit you.
Who qualifies for live-in care?
Anyone who requires regular daily assistance and wants to remain at home may benefit from live-in care. It is suitable for older adults, people living with disabilities, those recovering from surgery, or those who need specialised medical support. Many families seeking private live-in care choose us for our personalised approach.
What are the benefits of live-in care at home?
There are numerous benefits to choosing live-in care for your support needs:
- Familiar surroundings that reduce stress and confusion
- One-to-one personalised support
- Continuity of care from a trusted live-in carer
- Greater independence and flexibility
- Reduced risk of infection compared to communal settings
What happens if my needs change?
We regularly review care plans to ensure you are receiving the right level of support. If your needs change, we’ll adapt the plan accordingly to make sure you continue to get the care you require.
What’s the difference between live-in care and 24-hour care at home?
Live-in care means a Carer lives with you in your own home, providing support with your daily routine. This may include help with washing and dressing, preparing meals, accompanying you in the community, and general housekeeping. A live-in Carer takes breaks during the day and sleeps at night.
For Clients who need regular care overnight, or require someone available at all times, a team of Carers can provide 24-hour support. This ensures families have peace of mind, knowing their loved one’s needs are met both day and night.
Why choose live-in care over residential care?
The primary benefit of live-in care is that our Clients are able to continue living at home. Staying in their own home can offer a vital level of familiarity, particularly for those living with dementia or a condition that can cause confusion.
What’s more, live-in care enables our local Carers to build a relationship with their Client. Your Carer will work closely with you to understand your routine and needs, and you will benefit from the reassurance that there is another person in the house who will be able to assist you with care and household tasks.
