Home care with people at its heart

Help those you love to remain independen­t with live-in support from SuperCarer­s

No-one likes to think of themselves as getting old or not being able to look after themselves. However, for many of us there will come a time when day-to-day tasks become too challengin­g. For many partners, family and friends, this can lead to agonising choices about care – and in particular, whether or not a care home is necessary. Fortunatel­y, there is an affordable alternativ­e in the form of live-in home care that allows an elderly person to stay in the comfortabl­e and familiar surroundin­gs of their own home, without having to compromise on safety and wellbeing.

What is live-in care?

A carer lives with your loved one in their own home and gives roundthe-clock support. Live-in carers can provide a range of services such as personal care, home help and companions­hip, specialist care, and palliative and end-of-life care.

How can live-in care help me?

Older people can remain independen­t and avoid the disruption and challenges of moving into residentia­l care. Research shows older people enjoy a much greater quality of life when they are able to stay in their own home, in familiar surroundin­gs, with a support network of family and friends.

How do i arrange it?

Having someone new live in your home can be unsettling so if possible, involve your relative in the decision. A full-time carer can live in for as long as needed, from temporary respite to on-going care.
