Live in Care
What is Live In Care
Live-in care refers to a service where a carer stays at the person’s home to assist and support them. This way, individuals who need care can stay in their familiar environment instead of moving to care facilities.
What Do Live-in Carers Do?
- Domestic Tasks: They help with house-related activities, such as cooking meals, cleaning, and organizing the home.
- Errands: They assist with outside tasks like shopping or picking up prescriptions.
- Medication:They ensure that the person takes their medicines correctly and on time.
- Personalized Care: The carer’s tasks are decided based on the individual’s needs and preferences. This ensures the person receives care that’s perfect for them.
By working closely with the person and their family, a care plan is made during a home assessment. This plan ensures that the individual gets the best possible care according to their wishes and needs.

Why is Having a Carer at Home Special?
Changing homes, especially to a place with lots of rules, can be tough. Having a carer means you don’t need to change much.
Friends and family can visit like always. If you have an extra room, a carer can live with you and help whenever you need.
Some care agencies just find you a carer and then leave everything else to you. At Keen Healthcare, we do more. We keep checking how things are going, train carers, and even have expert carers for special medical conditions.
They know about things like Parkinson’s, strokes, or mental health issues. The Care Quality Commission checks us to make sure we’re good.
