What are the advantages of live-in care?

• Peace of mind and security knowing that your care assistant lives with you, providing round-the-clock support.
• You have the continuity and comfort of staying at home in familiar surroundings.
• It gives relatives and friends the reassurance that their loved one is being looked after, with their individual needs addressed and their personal wishes fulfilled.
• We provide locally based carers who know the area and resources available within it.

Similarly, we often provide live-in care when our client needs temporary support through a period of convalescence or recuperation, for example when returning from hospital.

Sir Michael Parkinson, the Dignity in Care Ambassador says:

"Most of us will at some point be in contact with care services - be that in our work, or as a service user, a Carer, a relative or friend, ...

... Dignity in Care is a great way for us to recognise the dedication of health and care staff treating people with the dignity and respect they deserve."
