How does live-in care work?
If you’re interested in arranging live-in care in Seaford, the first step is to arrange a free consultation. This will allow us to get to know you and your situation. We’ll then work with you to put together a care plan that is tailored to your individual needs
Once the care plan is in place, we’ll start the process of finding a suitable carer. Once you are matched with a carer, you’ll have an opportunity to meet them before they move in. We’re confident you’ll get along and they will be able to meet your specific needs. The carer will then move into your home and provide care on a fixed schedule. This ensures your carer has appropriate breaks and time off, while you can still enjoy your home and live independently.
Cheriton Homecare will be with you every step of the way. Our head office team provides round-the-clock support to both carers and clients, so we can help to resolve any issues that may arise.

Live-in care FAQs
Are live-in carers the same as nurses?
No, our carers are not nursing staff and are not acting in the capacity of a nurse. They are highly trained carers who provide personal, practical and emotional support.
Can I choose my own live-in carer?
Yes, you can. We'll work with you to get to know your specific needs and preferences. We'll then put together a list of potential carers for you to meet. You'll be able to meet them before they move in.
How is this different to residential care?
The key difference is that you will stay in your own home and your carer will come to you. With residential care, you would have to move into a facility and you would receive support from a team of carers.
