Who does live-in care in Preston benefit?
24-hour live-in care is a great option for people who wish to remain in the comfort of their own home and would like ongoing support from a dedicated carer. Some of the reasons you may need live-in care include:
When hourly care no longer works
If you're receiving domiciliary care from a care agency or social services and your needs increase, it can mean that too many daily visits are required with too many carers having to be involved. Live-in care provides round-the-clock support with the continuity of the same carer, and can also be more cost effective.
When couples want to stay together
Live-in care for couples enables both people to remain in the familiar setting of their own home. This avoids the need to move into residential care, and offers a significant cost saving since you would have to pay for two beds in a care home.
When discharging from hospital
If you are recovering from surgery, illness or injury, you may need temporary respite care or ongoing care to avoid a readmission. Live-in care can ensure a safe return home from hospital, and we can work alongside health professionals to support you with rehabilitation, convalescence and recovery.
When living with dementia
If your loved one is living with dementia and it is unsafe for them to be left alone at home, the support of a live-in carer enables them to remain in the familiarity of their own home with one-to-one support from a trained, professional carer.
When living with physical disabilities
If an older person has physical needs or mobility issues, a live-in care professional can provide constant support around the home, including helping to reduce the risk of falls.
When limited support from loved ones
For people with a small support network or whose loved ones live too far away or are unable to visit regularly, live-in care provides assistance with daily living and also companionship. Your live-in care professional can also keep family members updated and provide peace of mind.
How much does live-in care cost in Preston?
Live-in care costs vary depending on the needs of the individual or the couple being supported. We offer a fully transparent pricing structure, which means no hidden costs, fees or add-ons.
