Finding live-in care
What is live-in care in Surrey?
Live-in care is often referred to as home care. It offers all of the benefits of residential care, without the requirement to move to a specialist facility. By staying in your own home, you can stay in familiar surroundings and still access the same one-on-one care you could expect from a care facility.
Your care plan can be perfectly adapted to your preferences and your schedule. You don’t have to sell your home, downsize, or move away from Surrey in order to access expert care that is tailored to your needs.
Choose the best type of care
What are the benefits of live-in care?
There are many benefits to choosing live-in care over residential care. In general, our clients love that they can access personalised support on their terms. No need to downsize your home or go through the stress of moving.
Other incredible benefits of live-in care in Surrey include:
Through live-in-care, individuals can stay in their own homes for longer and maintain a sense of pride in their independence.
We only work with local carers with extensive knowledge of the local area, which means they are well-suited to provide personalised care.

What our clients say about us
Customised live-in care plans
How does live-in care work?
It all starts with a consultation to get to know you or your loved one. During this meeting, we can better assess your needs and let you know how a live-in carer might be able to support you. If you decide to move forward, the next step is to match you with a carer.
Your carer will move into your home and occupy a spare bedroom. This will allow them to provide care and support on your schedule. Your carer will have breaks and downtime during the day, ensuring that you both have a sense of independence.
Live-in care is not the same as round the clock support and should not be treated as such. If you require more intensive support, you might benefit from multiple carers, or a relief carer alongside your live-in carer.
Meeting your needs
What can live-in carers help with?
Our live-in carers receive training that allows them to deliver the same level of care and support you might expect from a residential care facility. The difference is that it is completely tailored to you and your needs.
You might need a little extra help to remain mobile and to move around your home safely. You might ask for help with bathing, dressing or grooming. Carers can also provide support with catheter care or incontinence support.
Your live-in carer can help with food shopping, preparing delicious meals according to your preferences, and taking care of the dishes afterwards. They might also help with housework or light garden work that is no longer within your grasp.
They can also support you with your medical care, and this could include ensuring that you take the right medication on time. You could also ask for assistance in attending GP and hospital appointments. Carers are also excellent companions and are always around for a chat and a cup of tea.
