A typical live-in week is £1,050 from carers within 25 miles of Bonnybridge, with our fee included, and the middle half of advertised rates run from £1,015 to £1,104. Here is where that sits against a care home.

Care home figures are averages for England; too few homes in Falkirk publish a fee for a local median. Fees vary widely between homes. At home you keep paying the household bills and the carer's food, so add those before you compare.

For a couple the gap is wide: one live-in carer for both of you is about £1,350 a week, and a care home charges two fees. Work it through for your own numbers.

Hourly visits in Falkirk are covered on the cost of home care in Falkirk page, and you can compare private carers in Falkirk for visits. Past about 35 hours a week, live-in care costs about the same and somebody is there all day.
