Live In Respite Care

Do you need a break? Take one with the reassurance and peace of mind, knowing your loved one is cared for and enjoying life.

What Is Respite Care?

Respite care is short-term care used as an alternative to a person’s usual arrangements or when the unexpected happens.

There are several reasons you might be considering needing some respite care.

Going away and worried about your loved one in your absence? We’re here to step in and help.
Are you primarily responsible for caring for your loved one and need a break? Take one with reassurance and peace of mind, knowing your loved one is cared for and enjoying life too.
Need short term care when things change unexpectedly or you’re recovering from an operation or injury, we’re here for as long as you need us until you regain your independence.

Sometimes if a family member is providing the care and support needed, they may need a break to recharge their batteries. Caring for a loved one is a huge responsibility and the dedication of being a primary carer can take its toll at times and tiredness can creep in. They may find themselves unwell or have to undergo a planned operation. This can all be a little overwhelming at times and there is an uncertainty of what the best thing to do is.

Live in Care are here to help and be the safety net you can call upon.

You can step back and trust our short-term live-in care service.

Respite care can be planned in advance when you need temporary relief, or we are here to help in an emergency.

The respite care we provide is cost-effective, enables independence, and is organised on the person’s terms with the one-on-one support they need to remain independent at home.

Live in Care will be there for any future respite care needs

After providing respite care once, Live in Care will be there for any future needs, with a full care plan already in place that only has to be reviewed to include any changes. Many family carers see this positively and have commented that knowing we are always there in the background, ready to step in, alleviates so much worry and eases the responsibility.

Thank you, Live in Care, for enabling Mum to spend her last day at home, where she wanted to be. This has been a great comfort to us all and we couldn’t have asked for better care in the last few weeks.

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 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.

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.

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.
