Live In Care Colchester

What is live in care?

Live in care provides one on one care within the home of the person requiring care, with a carer living in your home with you, provided with their own room or living quarters, enabling them to deliver care across the day as and when it is needed.

It allows someone with additional care needs to remain in their own home, within a familiar environment, where they can see friends and family and continue to do the things they love such as visit social clubs, continue hobbies and go out in their local community.

Live in care in Colchester can be the ideal solution for someone that needs help around the home, but wants to maintain a greater level of independence. A live in carer is there as a safety net and to provide help as needed but will always encourage independence and self-sufficiency when appropriate as it aids mobility, muscle movement, memory and of course confidence. It enables someone to have a care plan designed bespoke to them and their needs with someone fully focused on their needs.

Why choose live in care in Colchester?

Live in care in Colchester can provide peace of mind, thanks to the guarantee of dedicated care and attention to the needs of the person that needs care. In residential homes, one carer may be overseeing as many as ten people, which can make it difficult to spot when things are not right or if someone needs additional help or attention. Even with visiting home care, visits can often be short and built around other visits in the day and may not always provide the necessary level of care someone needs or at the times when it is most needed.
