When we chose Live in Care for Dad it was because the Care Manager made all the difference professionally from other companies we’d considered, she gave amazing guidance and advice not only around care but quality of life, social interaction and possible funding.
The service is professional, efficient, friendly, and respectful. Nothing appears too much trouble. They made a prompt and accurate assessment of my mother’s needs and quickly identified a fantastic carer. When they had concerns about my mother’s health the service manager made a personal visit to check that everything was being done that needed to be done.
It’s not just the everyday care that makes such a difference to Mum’s life; it’s the little things that are always thought of. Mum has been out of her home more in the last 6 months than she has in the last 6 years. Seeing photos of her smiling face, full of laughter, tells us how much she has enjoyed the company, activities, and outings. We definitely picked the right live in care provider.
I’m a nurse and I couldn’t have provided the care, comfort and support my father needed in his last days of his life without the live-in carer. She was so professional, skilled, and kind and this helped to ensure that Dad was comfortable and peaceful in his last few days. Nothing was too much trouble.
We tried other companies first but there were so many changes, and it all became too much for Mum, not knowing who would be there to help her. Since we chose Live in Care, she’s been so much happier.
