What is live-in care?
With live-in care, a specially trained carer moves into your home and provides support to help you remain independent. Live-in care is a great alternative to residential care, as it allows individuals to stay in their own homes. Live-in carers are on hand 24/7 to provide support and assistance as required.
Our live-in carers are experienced and qualified individuals who undergo regular training to ensure they are up to the task. They work with you and your family members to create a care plan that suits your needs. Every care arrangement starts with a consultation to learn more about you and your requirements. We can then match you with the right carer.
