Live-in Care in Bath and North East Somerset

Live-in care might be one of the terms you've come across if you've been looking for support for yourself or a loved one in Bath and North East Somerset. But what does it mean, how does it work, and most importantly, how can you find the right support? As specialists in the field, PrimeCarers is happy to provide this comprehensive guide to answer all your questions.

Understanding Live-in Care

Live-in care is simply a provision of full-time home care where a professional carer stays with the person in need in their own home. Rather than seeking alternative living arrangements such as nursing homes or retirement communities, one can continue living in their comfortable, familiar surroundings while receiving the necessary help and assistance that they require.

A live-in carer usually cares for persons who need help with daily living activities, such as personal hygiene, dressing, meal preparation, medication management, and mobilisation among other tasks. They also offer companionship, promoting emotional wellbeing and ensuring that the individual isn't socially isolated.

The Benefits of Live-in Care

Live-in care, as an arrangement, has several benefits that make it a preferred choice for many.

One-to-One Care and Support

Unlike residential care homes, a live-in carer provides personalised, one-to-one support. This personalised attention ensures all care needs are met timely and in a manner that is most comfortable for the client.

Continuing Living at Home

Familiar surroundings often provide a sense of comfort and peace, particularly for seniors or individuals with dementia. With live-in care, there is no need to move into a nursing home or assisted living facility.

Control and Flexibility

Live-in care allows for greater control and flexibility over routines, meal times, social activities, and other aspects of daily life. This can greatly contribute to the quality of life and personal freedom.

Fostering Independence

A key aim of live-in care is to foster as much independence as possible. This improves confidence and self-esteem amongst those receiving care.
