When you are thinking about, how best to remain safe and well at home, there are a number of options but when it comes to private live-in care, you could be wondering how it all happens. Here we try to help answer some of your questions. To start we recommend a read of our What is Live in care page. If you are unsure what defines live-in care, here we answer questions such as How would Eaton Home Care’s services apply to you or your loved one’s needs? On a firsthand level and how does live-in care work?
The team at Eaton Home Care present the practicalities of live-in care and lay out everything you need to know about the subject.
Live-in care allows a person to continue with life as normally as possible; for example, to continue enjoying interests and hobbies, seeing friends, and having access to their books, music – and all those treasured possessions collected over a lifetime.
Learn about the different types of care available in your home, the benefits of live-in care, and how it could be the best option for a loved one – or yourself. Plus, applying for private live-in care to see all the processes join seamlessly. In other words, this is your ultimate guide.
Someone caring – in your home. In an everyday sense, you will have another person staying in your home, sleeping in another bedroom or your spare room.
We have organised this in many different ways. The importance of having a carer on-hand, while being able to keep you or your loved one in their own home and familiar surroundings may require preparing a separate room for the carers own space. This is so that they can give you the space you need to live your life while having their own space to rest and take breaks when they can.
Making space. Your carer will need space to store their belongings, toiletries, and their food in your fridge. As well as cooking your meals and helping with the day to day running of your house, they will be preparing their own meals, too. We always encourage our carers to eat together with the client making it a social experience but if you prefer to eat alone that’s absolutely fine too.
Round the clock care. If you need regular support during the night you may need to consider adding our overnight care service. 24/7 care is for those where there may be two carers involved, to ensure that you are safe, happy, and secure in your own home. You may have one carer living with you as your live in care worker and then the night carer will support you while the day care worker sleeps.
Different Pricing Structures. Be aware that costs will vary depending on the number of hours a person care for you, as well as how long they are on stand-by.
