What is live-in personal care

What is live-in personal care?

Personal care is support that can help elderly or less-able people perform daily tasks, such as washing and bathing, visiting the toilet and cooking meals.

Live-in means that a carer - or carers - will move into your home, or stay overnight to assist you with your day-to-day living. There are many benefits of live-in care for personal care, the main one being that it enables you to stay within the comfort of your own homes as you age.

It's therefore a great alternative to moving into a care home.

Companion Live in Care in Richmond, UK

Companion Live in Care in Richmond, UK

How companion live in care works:
Whichever type of live-in companion has chosen, it means the individual is sharing their home with someone else. Whilst this can have a huge number of benefits, for it to work, it is very important that the right person is chosen, and that the right chemistry exists between the two of them.
Perhaps the most important thing, is that the live in companion is able to respect the boundaries of the person they are caring for, respect the fact it is their home, and be able to work with them on that basis. If boundaries are respected, then the process normally works really well.
This is a key element of how someone is chosen, and great care should be put into this at the very outset.

Cost of live in care for couples in UK

Cost of live in care for couples in UK

The cost of live in care for couples is often significantly more cost effective than the fees of a residential care home, as you only pay one fee for a live in carer, whereas you would have to cover the cost of two places in a residential care home.

The reality of nursing homes:

Making the transition to a nursing home can be difficult for many elderly people. The atmosphere may be cold and sterile, causing them to feel alienated and uncomfortable.

Privacy is not always guaranteed, making it hard to establish a homely and personal space of your own. Visiting times can be limited, leaving service users lonely and depressed.

One-on-one care is rarely available even if the nursing home is sufficiently staffed. This creates an environment of antagonism and mistrust as residents must compete with one another to gain carer's limited attention.

All these features leave nursing home residents at an increased risk of neglect. This is especially the case for those suffering from conditions like Alzheimer’s or dementia that limit communication. It’s hard enough trying to get the care you need, let alone when you’re fighting to have your voice heard.
