24 Hour Care

Carers are often trained to deal with specialist conditions such as Dementia, Parkinson, Palliative Care, Stroke, End of Life and MS. 

Live in carers work very closely with both the client and their families to ensure the right level of care is provided. Carers act almost like a member of the family, often building strong relationship with them. A carer also offers companionship, this is often overlooked but is a very important part of the job, as is building trust with family members.

Some of the benefits of live in care

  • Most people want to stay in their own home rather than a care home
  • Staying in your own home means minimum disruption to daily life and routines
  • Care is tailored to the individual's needs and is flexible.
  • Family members have easy and unlimited access
  • A dedicated team of carers supervised by a Care Manager who is on call 24/7
