What is live-in care?
What is live-in care?
Live-in care is care provided by highly trained live-in carers who stay with the person receiving care in their own home, remaining on-hand to provide professional, bespoke care around-the-clock. This type of care is ideal for people who need support with the activities and tasks of daily life, care with health or complex conditions that impact their ability to live independently, or simply for someone who needs companionship and social support.
Because live-in care fits around your life, you can stay connected with what’s important to you, whether that’s your family, friends and community, pets, or the activities you enjoy.
Continuity of care when things change
We know that people often worry about the need to move into a residential care home or hospice, or to go into hospital, if their needs change. Live-in care takes away those worries, giving you the reassurance that you or your loved one can remain in the comfort and familiarity of home.
What our clients say
"From the initial meeting through to commencing care Consultus have been thoroughly professional and caring with great understanding and communication. The carers provided for our father have been nothing short of simply wonderful providing great peace of mind for our father and our family.”

What support does a live-in carer provide?
What conditions does a live-in carer support?
Our live-in carers are able to support people who require specialist care at home. They aim to improve the lives of those they support, enabling them to live well in the comfort of their own homes. If your medical needs are more complex, our live-in nurses can support you instead. We provide specialist live-in care for people affected by dementia, Parkinson's, stroke, cancer, heart disease and other specialist conditions.
