A live-in carer in Pembrokeshire can support with as much or as little as needed. Typical support includes:

Why families in Pembrokeshire choose live-in care
The advantage of live-in care in Pembrokeshire is continuity. Because the same carer is there each day, they notice small changes — a reduced appetite, a new unsteadiness — long before they become emergencies.
Live in Care Direct has been offering elderly care services for many years. It is a family-owned entity that is in this line of work to make it easy for families out there to get professional help at home for their elderly. Elderly care is a tough job and not every individual is capable of handling such an overwhelming job. Hiring help to assist in fulfilling the needs of your elderly does not in any way shows you are not willing to help the elders of your family but it proves that you want them to get the best care while living comfortably in their homes. Our carers are responsible and dedicated individuals who are in this field of service because their life aspiration includes taking care of others. Our carers carry out their work with extreme care and will make sure all needs of your loved ones are met all the while respecting their privacy and dignity.
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
We quote a single transparent weekly rate that covers the agreed care plan. For couples this frequently compares very favourably with two care home places, since one live-in carer can support both people.
