- From £1,200 a week The same rate nationwide, not by postcode

We provide one-to-one live-in care throughout Hale, offering families a real alternative to a care home while keeping their loved one in familiar surroundings.
What is live-in care?
Live-in care means a professional carer moves into the home and provides one-to-one support day and night. Unlike hourly visiting care, which works to a fixed schedule, a live-in carer is there continuously — able to respond when something is needed rather than when the next visit is due.
Stop throwing your money into the pit when you only pay without getting any positive feedback on your aged ones who are having spinal injuries. The new dawn has come with Live-In Care Direct. It is a health institution that caters to the aged in the UK and Hale with the help of our carers. With us, there is no delay or an impossible task. Are you aware that we have been doing this for over a decade and never defaulted? That is why you no other but us. We are known to be the best quality health giver and our services are only home-based. This is because most people can no longer cope with the expenses of the government and private hospitals that have wrecked many finances without visible positive results. Our services are very cheap and no unnecessary prototypes are attached. You have the freedom of choosing out of our four phases of caregiving and we take it up from there.

Why families in Hale choose live-in care
For many families in Hale, live-in care is the option that keeps everything familiar: the same house, the same bed, the same view from the window, but with proper support in place.
We are a team of hardworking carers who have been around for a long time. Our major aim is to provide care to ailing people in the UK and most especially, Hale. We are committed to home care services. The most remarkable thing about our services is that our carers are unique, nice, resourceful, intelligent, have the spirit of workmanship, and above all, patient. All these add feathers to our cap anywhere we go to deliver our services. Furthermore, our elder care agency is in different categories; full-time, night-time, part-time, and daytime, and they are patterned to fit into any of your schedules.
Who live-in care is for
Typical situations include a recent fall or hospital discharge, a dementia diagnosis that makes living alone unsafe, a long-term condition that has progressed, or a family carer who has reached the point of exhaustion.
What live-in care costs
Live-in care is often more affordable than families expect, particularly for couples, where one carer can support two people for a single fee. We give you a clear weekly rate up front covering everything in the care plan, so there are no unexpected additions later.

Funding & regulation
Paying for care in Hale
Home care is regulated and funded differently in each nation, so the route is not the same everywhere. Here is how it works where you live.
Read our full funding guide →Who regulates care here

Apply through your local authority's adult social care team. Means-tested local authority funding and NHS Continuing Healthcare are both available depending on assessed need.
