How does live-in care work?

Live-in care is when a carer lives at the home with the person they care for, allowing them to provide round-the-clock care. This is ideal for someone who lives alone or needs assistance with day-to-day activities. It provides that constant additional support so somebody can remain living in their home and a familiar environment.

A live-in carer in Oxford provides the opportunity for one-on-one care, allowing for a trusting relationship to be built with a full understanding of needs and abilities.

Your live-in carer will require their room in the home and will have agreed days off or holiday but should someone need constant care then cover can be arranged.

What is the role of a live-in carer?

A live-in carer is there to provide help and assistance with a range of day-to-day tasks such as:

Personal care (bathing, dressing and toileting)
Light housework and gardening to keep the home in good condition
Meal preparation
Mobility support
Shopping
Picking up prescriptions
Accompaniment to appointments and social occasions
Pet care
Medical assistance such as prompting medication, oxygen, blood sugar monitoring, catheter management, stoma care etc.

A carer can provide companionship and that extra layer of security and support. They will always pay attention to the needs of the person they care for and encourage or support a sense of independence where they can.
