Reassuring care at home for families navigating change, worry, and everyday needs.
Live-In Care in Lancing
Steady, compassionate support for life at home
For families in Lancing exploring live-in care, the search often begins at a moment of change: a fall, a health scare, or the gradual realisation that a loved one needs more consistent support.
At Cheriton Homecare, we are here for exactly those moments. Our founder Richard Barnett created this service after 12 years of caring personally for his grandfather Bill through Alzheimer’s. That experience shaped a way of working that puts relationships, dignity, and genuine continuity at the centre of everything.
As a CQC-regulated provider rated Outstanding in Caring, we offer fully managed live-in care and a team that treats every family as part of our own.

Live-in care vs. 24-Hour care: Which type of support fits best?
Live-in care and 24-hour care are two names for the same arrangement. One carer lives in your loved one’s home, providing support and companionship during the day and taking a planned break overnight.
Visiting care involves scheduled visits from a team of carers and is better suited to clients who are largely independent and need support at specific times of day.
What does live-in care in Lancing cost?

The questions that come up when you're trying to get care right
How quickly can a live-in care arrangement usually be put in place?
We can move at the pace your family needs. If your loved one requires support urgently, we will do everything we can to arrange care quickly.
Can live-in care work for someone living with memory loss or confusion?
Yes. We have deep experience supporting people living with dementia and memory loss, and we take particular care when matching carers to make sure the relationship is calm, reassuring, and built on trust.
What is the difference between a live-in carer and a visiting carer day to day?
A live-in carer is present throughout the day and stays in the home, so support is always on hand. A visiting carer arrives at agreed times and leaves afterwards. For people who need consistent reassurance or more complex support, live-in care is usually the better fit.
How do you make sure care feels consistent and familiar?
We assign one dedicated carer to your loved one so they are not faced with a different face every day. Our team also stays closely involved so that care remains personal and well coordinated over time.
Can live-in care reduce the need to move into residential care?
In many cases, yes. With the right live-in support, people can stay safely in the home they know and continue living on their own terms for much longer.
