Our Live-in home care is person-centred, meaning that the care we provide is based on the individual’s needs, condition and circumstances.

At Home Instead South Lanarkshire, we provide one-to-one care and support in your home that ranges from companionship care to complex care for health issues such as dementia, multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s disease and cerebral palsy.

A professional live-in care worker called a Care Pro is matched to you, your care needs and your situation. They will come and live with you, giving you one-to-one support as and when required, in the comfort of your own home.

With Home Instead live-in care, a Care Pro is chosen to be a companion to your loved one to live in their home and support with daily activities. It’s all down to you and your loved one to decide how many hours of care you require each day. 

A live-in Care Pro is available not only as a companion but as a source of comfort and care, day and night. You can be confident that help is at hand for your loved one in the event that any unforeseen circumstances occur.

For people who need round-the-clock care and want to remain in their own home, we can usually arrange a team of Care Pros to ensure that your relative is receiving attentive care 24 hours a day.

You and your loved one will decide the Care Pro’s usual hours of work which will be when you believe you will need the most assistance. When not working their agreed hours, your Care Pro will be able to rest, sleep, and enjoy the usual activities of living at home.

We agree on how many days a week the Care Pro will be with you, whether you need full-time care, what type of care is needed.
