Five steps to live-in care

If you’re looking for professional care for your loved one, but not comfortable with them being in a residential or nursing home then this is a perfect solution. Care can be provided within their home where it’s comfortable and secure, ensuring your loved one is relaxed and provides continuity to their environment.

Please get in touch and we provide you with guidance on the best possible solution.

Live-In Care is an ideal choice for anybody that requires support within their own home. We want to encourage our clients to maintain their independence and continue living in a homely but protected environment. We support clients with multiple conditions including mobility concerns and dementia, there’s no restriction to the clients we support.

We’ll try to locate a suitable caregiver within 3-5 days once the assessment is completed.
This is sometimes dependent on the requirements of the client and the meeting arrangements for suitability.

While it’s possible to self-fund live-in care through savings, pensions or help from family, there are a number of options available for financial support.

Nightingales Live-In will send various profiles of the carers which match your requirements.

We will then arrange for the client and all loved ones to have an informal meeting with the live-in carer. This might be completed via the use of technology depending on where the carer is based, although we’re keen to provide you with various options for carers.

Live-in carers would move into the spare room. This would make them readily available whenever the loved one may require assistance.
