What is live-in care?

A Live-in Carer provides round-the-clock support, enabling individuals to continue living safely and happily in their own homes.

This involves healthcare assistants or support workers moving in with the client, typically on a two-week rotation, to provide 24-hour care and support with daily living.

Our live-in care services assist adults and young people who need clinical and social care support.

Live-in care

How do we arrange live-in care?

When you commission Superior Healthcare to provide live-in care, we will appoint a Nurse Managr with the skills and experience to oversee your care package.

It’s important to us to handpick a team of experienced healthcare professionals who can enable our clients to get the most out of life and continue doing the things they enjoy and value.

We will work with the client, family, and any professional partners to create a care package with the client’s individual needs, wants and goals at the centre.

Along the way, our Nurse Manager and expert clinical team will identify changes in the client’s health, needs, and personal goals or lifestyle, and then evolve the care they provide to match fluctuating needs and goals.

For us, it's personal

Superior Healthcare’s approach to providing exceptional live-in care is shaped by the personal experience of our CEO, Stewart Thorp, who struggled to find a specialist care provider for his brother Alex after he was involved in a major road traffic accident at the age of 11.
