Live-In Care
What is Live-In Care?
Live-in care is a personalised care option where a carer lives with you in your home, providing round-the-clock support whenever you need it. This level of care is the most comprehensive, offering full-time assistance and companionship while allowing you to remain in the comfort of your own home. Live-in care helps you maintain your independence and daily routines and can be tailored to meet your specific needs.
Whether you’re recovering from an illness or adjusting to changes in lifestyle, live-in care enables you to stay in familiar surroundings for as long as possible.
Why Choose Live-In Care?
Our live-in carers are highly trained, compassionate, and dedicated to helping you live independently and securely in your own home. They provide physical and emotional support, becoming trusted companions who stand by your side through life’s challenges.
While live-in carers assist with household chores, their primary focus is on your health and wellbeing. They can help with tasks such as:
• Medication management
• Physiotherapy exercises
• Mobility support
• Personal care and grooming
• Liaising with doctors and attending appointments
In addition to practical support, live-in carers provide emotional companionship, helping to ease feelings of loneliness and offering a friendly face to share your days with.
Flexible and Personalised Care
Live-in care is entirely adaptable to your needs, providing one-on-one support that evolves as your requirements change. Your carer will have their own bedroom in your home and, while available 24 hours a day, it’s recommended they have at least two hours of personal time during the day—perfect for you to enjoy a nap or quiet time.
For those with more complex conditions like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s, live-in care is especially beneficial. Familiar surroundings can help ease symptoms, and our specialised carers are trained to provide expert support while ensuring you remain comfortable and secure.
What Does Live-In Care Include?
Live-in care is ideal for individuals who need daily assistance but prefer to stay in their own homes. It also provides peace of mind for loved ones, knowing you are in safe and capable hands.
Live-in carers can assist with a variety of tasks, including:
Preparing meals
Organising and attending appointments
Managing medication
Housekeeping tasks like cleaning, laundry, and changing bed linens
Providing mobility support
Taking care of pets
Engaging in hobbies and social activities
Enhanced Security and Emotional Support
Live-in care also ensures your safety and security. Having a trained carer in the home deters uninvited visitors and provides immediate assistance if you experience a fall or other emergency. This extra layer of protection offers peace of mind for both you and your family.
Beyond physical care, live-in carers offer companionship and emotional support. Kumusha Ekhaya Carers carefully match carers with shared interests, ensuring you’ll have someone who truly understands and connects with you.
Specialised Expertise for Complex Needs
If you’re managing health conditions such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, or other serious issues, live-in carers bring the expertise and experience needed to navigate these challenges. They provide tailored care and guidance, offering reassurance and an understanding presence to help you through life’s changes.
