Specialist Live-In Care
Specialised live-in care from experienced professionals.
Looking for Specialist Live-In Care for Your Loved One?
There is a multitude of reasons somebody may need live-in care. Sometimes, it can be the best solution for a serious condition or illness that has left somebody unable to take care of themselves. This may be Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, spinal injury, multiple sclerosis, stroke recovery, or a variety of other mental or physical conditions.
When this is the case, it’s reassuring to know your loved one is being taken care of by an expert who understands how to best care for somebody who has a specific condition. At Guardian Live-In Care, we work with a number of trained specialists who can help provide all the tailored care an individual may require.
How Does Specialist
Live-In Care Work?
What these services include will vary greatly depending on the person. For some, it may be health monitoring, help relieving pain, administering medication, providing aid to move safely around the house. Or, it could be a bit more domestic, with the care companion getting involved in household duties such as cooking and cleaning. They can help with memory, continence, personal care, and any range of specialist services your loved one may require.
Each case is different, and therefore considered on a case by case approach, starting with a conversation.
The Benefits of Specialist Live-In Care
If you’re looking into specialist care services, chances are that there are specific requirements a care companion will need to be able to fulfil for your loved one. To help you as you consider bringing in a live-in care companion, we’ve outlined a few of the benefits this service can offer:
The Comfort of Home
Residential care homes can be great, and can often provide the specialist care you need from a trained professional. However, live-in care has the capacity to go even further, allowing for the familiarity of remaining in a comfortable environment that your loved one knows well. Moving out can be a massive and overwhelming change for many, so live-in care can give you the specialist services you need without the hassle of having to leave home.
Carer-Client Relationships
In large residential homes, the ratio of patients to carers may not allow for a personalised relationship. Your specialist care companion will be wholly dedicated to your loved one, able to build a relationship of trust and comfort that will be invaluable as time goes on.
Tailored Care
With nobody else to come into consideration, your specialist care plan can take whatever form you need it to. Live-in care ensures that all routines, schedules, and plans revolve around the preferences and needs of your loved one, keeping them as comfortable and happy as possible.
