Live In Care Paignton
One to one care at home across Paignton and nearby Torbay communities.
- Family-run provider since 2014
- Fully regulated by the CQC
- Carefully matched live in carers
Paignton has long been a place where generations of families have chosen to settle, combining the convenience of a lively seaside town with the reassurance of familiar neighbourhoods and strong community ties. Whether someone lives close to the promenade, Preston, Goodrington, Collaton St Mary or nearby villages, remaining at home is often the option families hope to preserve for as long as possible.
Live In Care provides one-to-one support that helps people continue enjoying everyday routines while receiving personalised care built around their needs, independence and the life they already know.
What Live In Care in Paignton Can Include
Support needs can change following illness, a fall or a hospital stay. Tasks that were previously manageable—getting washed and dressed, preparing a meal or moving around the home—may now require assistance. Other households are looking for a longer-term arrangement because existing visiting care no longer covers the help needed.
Live In Care Ltd assesses what support would make daily life at home manageable. The agreed plan may include personal care, meals, medication prompts, mobility assistance, companionship and light household tasks, with dementia support or care for a couple considered where required.
Care is reviewed as the situation develops. A recovery arrangement following hospital treatment may need to change as someone regains confidence, while a longer-term placement may require additional assistance over time.

FAQs About Live In Care in Paignton
Can Live In Care help someone stay at home in Paignton?
Yes. Live In Care in Paignton can be adapted around the person’s home, routine, mobility and level of support required. The aim is to help them remain safe, comfortable and supported in familiar surroundings while receiving one to one care at home.
Do you cover Preston and Goodrington?
Yes. We support families across Paignton and nearby areas including Preston, Goodrington, Churston, Galmpton, Collaton St Mary, Marldon and nearby Torbay communities. Care is arranged around the person’s home, routine and level of support required, whether they live in the main town or one of the surrounding communities.
Is dementia care possible at home in Paignton?
Dementia care can be considered as part of an assessed live-in care package. Tell us how the condition affects everyday activities and what assistance is already being provided. We look at personal care, meals, communication and reassurance together, so the proposal reflects the person’s situation rather than assuming that everyone with dementia needs the same support.
Can Live In Care support someone after a stay at Torbay Hospital?
Our Home from Hospital Care service can provide practical assistance following a hospital stay, subject to assessment and suitable carer availability. Useful information includes the assistance expected with personal care and mobility, any equipment required and the guidance provided for recovery. A proposed discharge date helps planning, but the care start must be confirmed rather than assumed.
Can couples receive Live In Care in Paignton?
A shared live-in care placement may be suitable, including where one partner needs assistance following illness and the other has been providing support. We consider each person’s needs and the combined responsibilities before proposing care. The arrangement should allow both partners’ preferences to be heard and should not rely on one person providing help they can no longer manage.
How much does Live In Care cost in Paignton?
An assessment allows us to provide a written fee for the support required. Explain whether the enquiry concerns ongoing care, recovery after illness or respite care, together with the assistance needed each day. A temporary arrangement and a longer-term package may involve different requirements, so the quotation should be considered alongside the proposed care rather than as a price alone. Read more about how live-in care costs are assessed.
Is Live In Care suitable for families comparing care options across Torbay?
It is one option to consider alongside visiting care and residential care. The comparison should include how much assistance is needed, whether remaining at home is the person’s preference and how the arrangement would be managed. Our explanation of how live-in care works covers the assessment, carer matching and continuing support. This helps you compare a specific proposal rather than broad descriptions of different services.
Can Live In Care help someone in Paignton remain close to the coast?
Yes. Many people in Paignton value familiar coastal surroundings and local routines. Live In Care can provide the support needed to remain at home, including companionship, personal care, meals, medication prompts and reassurance throughout the day.
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.
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.
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.
I feel so reassured that I can go away knowing Mum is in the safe hands of the same carer when I take a holiday or attend a family special occasion. Thank you again – you run an amazing service.
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.
