Live-in Dementia Care
When someone with dementia starts to need round-the-clock support, it doesn't always mean moving into a care home. With live-in dementia care, your loved one can continue living in familiar surroundings while receiving dedicated support from a specialist carer. It's a flexible alternative that helps people maintain their routines, stay close to family and continue living life on their own terms.

How our live-in dementia care works
With live-in dementia care, one dedicated carer lives in your loved one's home, providing one-to-one support while helping them stay in the place they know and love. Find out more about our live-in care service.
For many people living with dementia, familiar faces and familiar routines can make a real difference. That's why we carefully match every family with the right live in dementia carer, considering not only skills and experience but also personality and shared interests.
Every live-in carer completes specialist dementia training before supporting their first client and is backed by an experienced Care Manager who oversees the care and keeps in touch with your family.
Carers work on an agreed rotation that suits your family, with carefully planned handovers between familiar carers to help keep routines consistent. As your loved one's needs change, we'll adapt their live in care for dementia, helping them continue living safely and comfortably at home.
