Laying Out the Basics

At PrimeCarers, our live-in care options come at two tiers: a basic rate and a complex rate. The determinant of these rates? Your personal circumstances and the specific needs of your loved one.

To give you an idea of what to expect, the average price advertised for the basic level of live-in care is around £144.89, while the complex level of live-in care comes in at around £177.20 on average.

It's important to remember that all carers on the PrimeCarers platform are self-employed and thus, they set their own prices. While we can provide averages here, the actual cost can vary depending on the carer's rates.

Factors That Influence the Cost

The cost of live-in care isn't a one-size-fits-all figure but depends on several factors. Here are a few things that could see the cost of live-in care nudging higher:

1. Irregular Sleep Patterns: If your loved one wakes up frequently at night, this could mean that the carer has additional duties to attend to, which can push up the cost.

2. Two's a Crowd: The cost is also likely to increase if the carer is looking after a couple rather than an individual. More people to care for naturally means more work. You can read more about this in our guide, 'Can Live-in Carers Look After Couples?'.

3. Specialised Skills: If your loved one requires specialised nursing care or if you need a carer with unique skills or expertise, this is likely to lead to a higher cost.

Stretching Your Budget the Smart Way

While the cost may vary, there are resources that can help you manage the expenses. Our 'Funding Live-in Care in Bromley' guide is a must-visit resource in this regard.
