Finding live-in care
What is live-in care in Fulham?
Live-in care is fast becoming the care arrangement of choice, overtaking residential care thanks to its flexibility and versatility. Even those with complex care needs can benefit from in-home care thanks to our specialist network. If you don’t like the idea of downsizing or moving house just to access the care you need, live-in care offers the perfect compromise.

What are the benefits of live-in care?
There are many benefits to live-in care, but perhaps the most popular benefit is that you get to remain in your own home. This is ideal for short-term arrangements as it means you don’t have to move house or downsize.

What our clients say about us
Customised live-in care plans
How does live-in care work?
Since every client is unique, we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. We start with a preliminary assessment to learn more about your needs and then use this information to build a care plan. The aim of the care plan is to ensure you can live a healthy and fulfilling life while still maintaining a sense of independence.
We then use this information to match you with a carer that will be perfectly qualified to support you. Your carer will move into your home and occupy a spare room. They sleep in your home at night so they can provide care when you need it the most. This is not the same as 24/7 care, as your carer will still have breaks and time away.
Meeting your needs
What can live-in carers help with?
Our team of live-in carers are trained to support clients with a wide range of care tasks, covering everything from personal care to basic household tasks. They can also support your health through health monitoring. We also have specialist carers capable of providing condition-specific care.
You can request support with tasks such as food shopping, meal planning, preparing meals and doing the dishes. Your carer can also help with things like laundry, ironing, basic housework and helping to care for beloved family pets.Personal care could include tasks such as helping you out of bed, washing, oral health care, dressing and grooming. It also includes catheter care and continence support if required.
Your live-in carer can help you to make sure you take the right medications at the right time. They can also support you in visiting your GP or attending hospital appointments. You could also ask for help with monitoring things like blood pressure or blood glucose levels.
And finally, your carer will also be there as a companion to help prevent loneliness. Ageing, disability and injury can be isolating, so you’ll have peace of mind knowing there is always someone there for a chat over a cup of tea.

Live-in care FAQs
Is live-in care better than residential care?
We believe the benefits of live-in care far outweigh those of residential care. Perhaps the most obvious benefit is that you get to live in your own home. You’ll also benefit from one-on-one care that is designed specifically for your needs.
Do live-in carers have their own room?
Yes, your carer will need their own room in your home and access to common areas such as the kitchen and bathroom. This will ensure everyone can enjoy their own privacy and your carer will have somewhere to spend their downtime. It also means that residents still feel independent in their home.
How do I arrange live-in care in Fulham?
The first step in arranging live-in care in Fulham is to arrange a consultation with our team. During this initial meeting, we can provide recommendations for your care plan and then match your with the ideal live-in carer.
