As we get older, there might come a time when we could benefit from having help and support 24hrs a day. This can be especially true if we are living on our own. Whilst friends and loved ones will no doubt be helping when they can, 24-hour live-in care is the ultimate solution to keeping you safe and happy in your home. 

Right at Home offer 24-hr live-in care in Alton and Bordon, and we have trusted reliable CareGivers that will support you at home. With live-in care, one of our Carers comes to live with you, providing personalised assistance tailored to your needs. They are there to provide companionship and help you live your life with dignity and peace of mind. This type of care enables you to stay in your own home and maintain your independence while having access to the help you need any time of the day or night. Furthermore, your family and loved ones can rest assured that you are safe and well looked after in the comfort of your home. 

Here are just some of the ways that 24hr live-in care supports you;

Companionship

Providing companionship is an integral part of the role of a CareGiver, whether it is having a chat over a cup of tea or helping you get out in your community and meet up with friends or participate in activities. At Right at Home, we really enjoy our time with our clients outdoors in the local area. Sometimes it is popping to a café for a coffee or going for a walk. But one of our favourites is the tour at Jenkyn Place Vineyard. Sharing experiences with someone and having a friend with whom you can talk and laugh is a vital part of life. Companionship provides a sense of security and reduces feelings of stress and anxiety. Our Right at Home companions are matched, where possible, to their clients to ensure they have things in common. This means your CareGiver not only provides practical help but is a friend you enjoy spending time with.

Medication and nutritional management

An essential part of self-care is ensuring that we eat good nutritionally balanced meals and manage any medication and appointments we require. However, finding the time or energy to do these things can be challenging. A live-in carer can help with getting you to doctor appointments as well as collecting and administering medicine if it is required. Right at Home can also provide specialist medical care where needed. They help you stay healthy and eat a balanced diet by assisting with meal planning and preparation. They can also purchase groceries, cook meals and assist with the clean-up afterwards. Their help ensures you receive the appropriate nutrition you need while also having the freedom to enjoy and indulge in your favourite dishes. Home care services are invaluable when it comes to helping individuals maintain a safe and healthy lifestyle.

Help with daily activities

As well as nutrition and medication management, a live-in CareGiver can assist with other daily activities that may otherwise be difficult to manage. This includes assistance with dressing, bathing, grooming and hygiene, as well as help with mobility. Safety in the home is important, and live-in carers can put processes in place to help you avoid falls or other accidents. CareGivers are also trained to recognise any changes that might indicate a need for additional medical attention or help with daily living activities. This is all part of safeguarding clients to ensure that they remain independent in their homes longer and stay safe. This provides peace of mind knowing that you or your loved one is being cared for with respect 24-hours a day. With live-in home care, safety is no longer a concern; it's an assurance.

With so many benefits, it's no surprise that 24-hour live-in care is becoming an increasingly popular care option. People prefer to stay in their home, and live-in care makes that happen. Why not contact us at Right at Home on 01420 481716 to find out how our live-in carers could support you or a family member. We are here to help you stay safe, comfortable, and independent in your home.
