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.
Knowing that Dad has two regular carers, that know his needs, preferences and little idiosyncrasies has given the family total peace of mind. This is what sets Live in Care above the rest of the companies we considered.
Thank you so much, you have saved our lives!
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.
Live In Care has been brilliant. My mother had a fall and could no longer manage on her own. From the first assessment appointment, all the members of staff have been both super friendly and professional, they are always responsive, and their work is focused clearly on ensuring that Mum is happy. The carers have been extremely conscientious, and Mum now has a longer-term carer whom she feels thoroughly spoilt by. I still can’t quite believe that Mum is being taken care of so well. It has been a huge relief, and I am so glad and grateful that I found Live In Care.
