Why choose 24/7 Care at Home?
Nobody wants to struggle to leave their own home. When you need that extra help, 24/7 Care at Home can provide a real life line.
Live-in care is an excellent option for many individuals because it provides continuous, personalised support while allowing people to remain in the comfort of their own homes. All you need is a bedroom for a Support Worker to stay in and be willing to have them stay with you 24 hours a day.
1. 24/7 Personalized Care
Live-in care offers round-the-clock assistance, ensuring that help is always available, whether for daily tasks or emergencies. This constant care provides reassurance and security, particularly for individuals with complex medical needs, mobility challenges, or cognitive conditions like dementia.
2. Comfort of Home
One of the greatest advantages of live-in care is that individuals can stay in their own familiar surroundings. The comfort, security and emotional well-being that come from being at home often lead to better quality of life and can even improve health outcomes compared to moving to a care facility.
3. Promotes Independence
Unlike institutional settings, live-in care allows individuals to maintain control over their daily routines and lifestyle choices. Care is adapted to personal preferences, allowing for flexibility in how and when tasks are completed, whether it’s meal times, hobbies, or social activities.
4. Consistent and Familiar Care
With live-in care, individuals benefit from having the same caregiver or small group of caregivers, fostering trust and rapport. This consistency is especially important for individuals with dementia or cognitive impairments, who thrive with familiar faces and routines.
5. Tailored Care Plans
Live-in care is highly personalised to meet each individual’s specific needs. The caregiver focuses entirely on the care recipient, unlike in residential care settings where staff must divide their attention among multiple residents. This means that care can be completely customized, from medication management to mobility assistance and companionship.
6. Companionship and Emotional Support
Live-in caregivers provide more than just physical assistance—they also offer companionship. Having someone to talk to, share meals with, or assist with hobbies can significantly reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation.
7. Peace of Mind for Families
For family members, live-in care offers peace of mind knowing that their loved one is being cared for. It alleviates the worry and stress of managing care themselves, while still keeping loved ones close by and involved in care decisions.
8. Prevents the Stress of Relocation
Relocating to a care facility can be disruptive and stressful. Live-in care eliminates the need for a major move, preserving the individual’s lifestyle and routines, which can be particularly beneficial for those with cognitive impairments who benefit from familiar surroundings.
Live In Care may not be as expensive as you think and the cost will depend on the level of support required. This will all be discussed during the assessment stage. We will go through the finance options and support you to find out if you are eligible for funding for care.
A comprehensive assessment is completed with you prior to the start of any Live In package. A care and support plan agreed with everyone involved in your care.
Once a support plan is completed and agreed we will match you with a Support Worker that meets your needs and that you are happy with.
Typical Live in Care packages have two support workers who work on a rotation of two weeks on and two weeks off. This also provides an element of variety for the customer. This can be adapted to meet any personal requests.
