Live-in care generally works by having two of our carers living with a client, working on a 2 weeks on / 2 weeks off pattern. This not only ensures there’s always someone on hand, but also better detects changes in care needs. Working with the preferences of the individuals (some people enjoy companionship, others value privacy and personal space) a mindful and sensitive agreement is tailored to suit you and carers are hand-picked to match the personalities of each client.
Our carers take into consideration not only the unique needs of their clients but also the needs of their family in maintaining positive relationships. And, because we fully support our carers, we provide ongoing collaborative advice and training to continuously improve the care they provide.
