Fully managed live-in care
What makes our live-in care special is that we fully manage it. You gain a complete, professionally overseen service designed to give you confidence, safety and continuity every day.
Your care begins with a person-centred care plan and a thorough risk assessment tailored to your individual needs. You are supported by a dedicated care manager and care supervisor who regularly review your support, check in with you, and make sure everything is running exactly as it should. The service is also overseen and clinically supported by our Clinical Lead, adding an extra layer of professional oversight and safeguarding.
As a managed provider, we employ and pay all of our care workers and so have a duty of care to you. We guarantee their training, supervision and support and, should your care worker fall ill, we are responsible for finding someone to replace them.
What’s more, as a regulated care provider, we are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
By contrast, introductory services or care agencies will put you in contact with a self-employed care worker. Compared to our premium service, they offer fewer guarantees and leave you or a loved one to supervise, manage and organise all aspects of the care received.

This could include pet care, managing finances, taking you on days out and liaising with healthcare professionals.

CQC Rated Good
Our live-in care service has been rated Good by the CQC, reflecting the high standards of safety, quality, and personalised support we provide.
