Right at Home Eastbourne and Bexhill's full-time care at home 


We offer this type of care to anyone who is eligible. Our full-time care Clients often include people with dementia, to prevent them from risks caused by confusion or disorientation. We also support those with poor mobility who may be unable to move around their home without assistance.

Every family who needs around-the-clock care for a relative has their own unique story. What all of our Clients share is the desire to provide the very best for their loved one, particularly when their needs become greater than the family can manage.

24-hour care is often needed as our loved ones approach end-of-life. Our Carers in Eastbourne are fully trained to support all Clients in their day-to-day lives, especially those who need the reassurance and comfort of having someone nearby.

The benefits of 24-hour care at home


Most importantly, our Eastbourne-based 24-hour homecare services provide peace of mind for our Clients and their loved ones. Beyond practical support and companionship, 24-hour care offers:

  • Reassurance for older people who may otherwise suffer from loneliness
  • Improved personal care, including reducing the common risks of UTIs and skin infections
  • Reduced fall risk
  • Lower risk of dehydration or hunger
  • Improved socialisation and quality of life

Our full-time Carers have the knowledge to care for each Client’s individual needs. 

We care for our Clients as we would for our own family. All of our full-time care at home providers understand the importance of first-rate communication; which is why we work in close partnership with others to offer personalised support.

All of our care services are designed to suit the unique individual needs of each Client. We spend time getting to know and understand their needs and aim to deliver the very best care every time. 

When is it the right time for 24-hour care?


If you are a primary CareGiver, there may come a time to consider employing 24-hour care. It can be hard to know when the time is right, but if you are struggling to provide safe and effective care yourself, then there is no shame in seeking help. 

There are certain things to consider that can help you make your decision regarding full-time care. We recommend asking yourself the following questions:

  • Is your loved one safe if they’re home alone?

Is there a possibility that your loved one may not be safe when someone isn’t around to care for them? Are you worried that your loved one may fall or otherwise hurt themselves? It may be time to seek support from a 24-hour CareGiver. Similarly if you are concerned that your loved one isn’t able to meet their own physical needs, such as eating and drinking, we can help. 

  • Are you feeling overwhelmed by providing care?

CareGiver stress can be an important sign that it may be time to seek help from someone else. If you just need some short-term support or temporary relief, you may wish to consider our respite care services.

  • Does your loved one require more care than you are qualified to provide? 

Most people aren’t trained to deal with the full extent of their loved one’s needs. If they require specialist care in response to a medical condition, then it’s likely time to consider help.

We’re aware that there are other factors to consider when deciding what is right for you and your family; but these questions are a good place to start. 

Our friendly and supportive team of full-time Carers and facilitators will help to define a care plan that suits you. Above all, we’ll put your loved one’s safety first. Remember: there is no shame in seeking full-time support to meet their care requirements.

FAQs about our end of life care services in Eastbourne

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

24-hour care involves having two dedicated members of our homecare team visit for a set period of time. One of our CareGivers will stay throughout the day and the other will stay during the night. 

Having a live-in Carer is different as this involves a single CareGiver taking up residence in your home. Live in-Carers have agreed working hours and are not necessarily on-call 24-hours a day.

Take a look at our live-in care services that are also available in Eastbourne to consider which care package would suit your circumstances best. Or speak to a member of our team for further information.

How much does 24-hour care cost in Eastbourne and Bexhill?

Our 24-hour in-home care cost is calculated based on the individual needs of each Client. In some cases, local councils or local authority organisations may offer support to help pay for a full-time home Carer. 

Similarly, live-in care costs vary according to each individual care plan. Both services are available long-term or short-term, to suit your needs.

Contact our friendly team in Eastbourne to discuss your cost of care budget and outline a care plan.
