A live-in carer moves into the home in New Southgate and is there day and night: personal care, meals, medicines prompted at the right times, company, and someone in the house overnight. On PrimeCarers you choose the carer yourself from the profiles of those who can reach New Southgate, agree the rate on their profile, and we set up the contract and the weekly payments. Families arrange it after an operation or a hospital stay, for dementia, for a couple, or when visits are no longer enough. How live-in care works goes through it step by step.
From carers' own profiles, October 2026. Distances are straight-line, from the centre of New Southgate to where each carer says they live. Counts are the live-in carers with a photo and a live-in rate that our area searches return, at most 100 per area, so busy areas have more. Rates include our fee and are advertised day rates multiplied by seven; typical means the median. Availability for your dates needs confirming with each carer.

Account manager for families in New Southgate
Someone to talk to first
Most families start with a call: what your relative needs, what it would cost, whether a live-in carer is the right answer or hourly visits would do, and what to ask a carer when you speak to them. Charlotte has those conversations every day and can tell you which of the carers in New Southgate might suit, though the choice is always yours.
Help paying
Ask your council for a care needs assessment and, where relevant, a financial assessment. Help with care costs depends on eligible needs, finances and the agreed care plan. Funding live-in care in Enfield goes through each route with the local contacts.
Depending on needs, Attendance Allowance and NHS Continuing Healthcare can help too, and so can pensions, savings and the value in a home.
