Many people are using our 24/7 live-in care service on a respite, periodic or permanent basis. We support many families with a relative whose dementia has raised the day or night care needs beyond that which they can permanently meet themselves.
Supporting reablement with early discharge options
Our 24-hour live-in care service is frequently used by the NHS. It’s an excellent solution for people who might otherwise have a lengthier than necessary stay in hospital as it can be used to support a patient’s reablement.
24/7 live-in care costs
We charge our 24-hour live-in care service on a weekly rather than hourly basis. It costs from £1,550 a week, depending on the care you need. A similar service costed on a domiciliary (home) care hourly basis would typically cost around £2,500 a week.
