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.

    Live-In Care is when someone needs a personal assistant around the house to provide support at various times of the day. The personal assistant is always on hand giving the client the flexibility to structure each day to meet their needs and preferences.

  • Q. What training is provided to the Care Workers provided by Live In Solutions?

    The Care Workers we provide to you will have had training that meets the standard required by the Health & Social Care Act (2012). Most of our care staff will have qualifications that exceed these standards. We will also supply the necessary updates and condition specific courses that equip our care workers with the skills required to competently care for our clients.

  • Q. Does a live-in carer need their own room?

    When it comes to live-in carers, we do ask that the carer is given a room with furnishings such as a bed, bedside table, chest of drawers and wardrobe where possible to help them rest in between shifts to ensure the best possible level of care can be provided at all times.

  • Q. Do you offer care to couples?

    If you and your spouse or partner want to stay in your own home together but require extra support, we can provide a carer to help couples in their own home as a cost-effective alternative to paying for two beds in a residential care home.

  • Q. What will the Care Worker be able to do for me?

    Our Care Workers are there to help you with your needs whatever they may be. You may like someone to live with you to keep you company and to do general housework. Other clients may need more practical assistance with personal care and planning and preparing of meals.

    Following a free initial assessment, we endeavour to match a suitable care worker to you. He or she will then provide the majority of your on-going care.

  • Q. Where do we recruit our staff from?

    We endeavour to recruit our Care Workers from the UK. When we do recruit people that have recently moved to the UK, we ensure that potential staff have good English-speaking and written skills and a good knowledge of our culture.

    We have no upper age limit though older care workers need to be fit enough to help frail and or disabled people with transfers. The experience and attitude of potential staff is more important to us than their age.

why our clients choose us

Fatihat did a wonderful job. We found her to be very pleasant and her care for my mother was really good. This enabled us to feel confident in going away for some respite even knowing that my mother could be challenging.

We used Live In Solutions as a quick stand in for our usual care company and they provided an outstanding service so we will be using them again in the future.

To Taya and all of Live in Solutions, Thank you so much for the lovely flowers. Also for the kindness you have shown me during my time with you. I shall miss caring but I am looking forward to spending the summer at home.

Thank you so much for the care and attention that you gave to my mother Violet over the past few years. I know that she appreciated the dedication and friendship that you gave to her. With all our very best wishes to you all.

Chidimma is the best carer I have ever had. Chidimma is very good; she makes me feel comfortable and safe.

I would just like to thank the wonderful team of carers that looked after my mother-in-law Joyce for the last month of her life. They were always so positive, cheerful and caring, always talking to her, and so much patience. They helped to make me feel that I had got it right with her needs also. I'm extremely grateful to them all. Thank you so much.
