Live-in Care: The Real Alternative to Care Homes

Is it Time for Live-in Care?

Live-in care is the real alternative to a residential or nursing care home.

If you’re looking for a solution that offers daily support and companionship in the comfort of your own home, then live-in care is the perfect choice.

How Are We Different?

There are many reasons why Home Instead’s live-in care service is special and distinct:

  • Local Management: Our Live-in Care services are managed locally by care experts who live and work in your area. Many live-in companies operate from a regional or national head office and so are not as connected with health care professionals or as responsive as us.
  • Regular In-Person Visits: Clients and Care Professionals receive regular in-person visits from a dedicated point of contact in the office.
  • Quality Assurance: All our experienced Care Professionals are directly employed by Home Instead. All have Enhanced DBS and Right to Work in the UK documents. This means that we directly manage the Care Professional on your behalf.
  • Comprehensive Services: Our local office provides a breadth of services, including hourly day-time and waking/sleeping night-time care, as well as live-in care. Unlike many live-in companies that rely on third-party agencies, we provide a fully managed service and can respond as your needs change.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mum needs her own space, would live-in care work for her?

Absolutely! Live-in care is flexible and can be tailored to suit your mum’s needs. During the times when your mum wants her own space, the Live-in carer can take care of tasks like meal preparation, ironing, and cleaning, allowing her to enjoy her safe space undisturbed. The Care Professional is as present as needed.

My home is not a palace and a little outdated. Would this be ok?

Please don’t worry! Our Care Professionals are here for you, regardless of your home’s condition. All that is required is a separate room, which could even be your backroom/office. We’re dedicated to providing care in a way that suits your needs and circumstances. We do ask for a bed and a Wi-Fi connection.

Can you take mum out?

We’d love to! Whether it’s a walk around the block, a trip to local beauty spots, or a visit to the village to pick up some shopping, we can make it happen. We can also organize doctor and hospital appointments and pick up prescriptions, so you can concentrate on being the daughter or son again.

From the Owners, Alan and Lucy

“In 2020, we were asked to introduce our live-in care service, and it’s been a heartwarming success. Our clients loved the option of staying in the comfort of their own homes, surrounded by familiar things, instead of having to move into a care home.”

A Family’s Experience

“The Care Pros provide exceptional care to our Dad, treating him always with kindness and dignity, providing practical help and company: preparing freshly cooked brunches, lunches, and evening meals to a very high standard and presented in a really appetising way; providing Dad with great company, showing interest in what he has to tell them and asking questions, rotating his photo albums so that he can enjoy the memories that he can still access and having a good laugh with him. For us, his children, we have precious peace of mind between our own visits”.

A Wife’s Review

“Our Live-in Aisha has been wonderful, I would not have recovered as well as I have without her. She spoilt my husband with trips out to places like Dunham Massey and Sale Water Park. I think that Aisha should be highly valued as she is marvellous and so conscientious, just wonderful.”

A Live-in Care Professional’s Experience

“I get great satisfaction from being a full-time companion to my client Martin. Seeing him focus on our daily crossword puzzles and the lovely chats we have about his younger days as a keen tennis player is a joy. His family has the reassurance that he is safe and still enjoying daily walks, as well as knowing he has his medication and is being kept safe despite his struggles with memory loss. I would recommend live-in care without hesitation.”

Our client's care journey with Home Instead is truly inspiring.

Our client’s care journey with Home Instead is truly inspiring. After a stroke left him needing support at home and with family abroad, he found comfort in our care. Despite initial reluctance to accept care at home, our client relaxed the most in the comfort of his personal space.

Initially, our client only needed minimal support, with one-hour calls for food preparation and medication, but as his health needs grew, so did our care. Shani moved in as his Live-in Care Professional and helped him find his confidence. We aim to create a safe environment, and Shani’s dedication, along with the office team, has been remarkable.

From delicious home-cooked meals to organising outings and appointments, under our care, he has thrived. He has gained confidence, structure, and joy in his daily life. Even with dementia, the Live-in support has been transformative, bringing back a sense of enjoyment. Giving structure to the day has helped tremendously, setting up outings to the beautician and simple pleasures like enjoying a film, special nights out to the Bridgewater Hall, and walking down by the Bollin. Every moment is cherished.

Our client’s story is a testament to the power of compassionate and tailored care at home. At Home Instead Altrincham, Sale, and Wythenshawe, we’re proud to be a part of his remarkable journey.
