Questions families ask
Is live-in care an alternative to a care home?
For many people, yes. It keeps them at home with one-to-one help. Whether it suits depends on their needs, the home, and whether there's a spare bedroom.
What does a live-in carer need?
Their own bedroom, use of the kitchen and bathroom, a daily break, and food or a food allowance. Agree the details at the start.
How is live-in care usually paid?
Usually a daily or weekly rate, agreed directly with the carer. Put in writing what's included and how breaks are covered.
