Why Families Choose It
What’s included in live-in care?
Our comprehensive live-in care services are fully tailored to your personal needs.
At Carevita, our live-in care is tailored to provide the specific kind and degree of care suited to your unique situation. No two people are the same, and neither should your care be!
Below are several ways a live-in carer may be able to help make things easier for you or your loved one:
Complex Care
Specialised nursing care for complex clinical needs, including medication administration, PEG feeding, catheter and stoma maintenance, and enema assistance. Our carers are professionally trained by registered nurses to manage complex conditions.
Personal Care
A live-in carer offers discreet and compassionate personal care, eliminating the need for you to rely on family members for private tasks. This personal care can encompass support with tasks such as bathing, toileting, and dressing.
Dietary Needs
Your live-in carer can prepare your favourite meals, drinks, and snacks at times convenient for you, handling the cleaning and tidying up post-meal. Additionally, they can prepare healthy dishes tailored to any specific dietary guidelines you follow.
Companionship
If you live alone or with a partner but live far from close family or friends, a live-in carer can be your companion for watching beloved TV shows, playing board games, accompanying you to a club, or simply enjoying a chat over a cup of tea.
Getting Out And About
A significant advantage of receiving care at home is preserving your independence. A live-in carer can be by your side for any outing – from a quick trip to the store, a visit to a friend, or a weekend getaway.
Household Chores
Whether you need comprehensive housekeeping assistance or just some help to manage it, a live-in carer ensures that your home remains neat and organised, allowing you to relish a genuinely serene and comfortable space.

Carevita live-in care reviews and testimonials
A TYPICAL DAY
What it actually looks like
There is no fixed schedule — that is rather the point. This is the shape most days take.
Morning
Up at whatever time suits — not a fixed institutional schedule.
Help with washing and dressing, medication, and breakfast made the way it has always been made.
Late Morning
Out to the shops, a coffee, the hairdresser or a hospital appointment.
Or the garden, the crossword and the radio if that is the preference.
Afternoon
Lunch, a rest, visitors, a walk with the dog.
The carer handles laundry and housework around whatever else is happening.
Evening
Dinner together, television, a phone call to family.
Evening medication and help getting ready for bed.
Overnight
The carer sleeps in their own room and is there if needed.
Where nights are regularly broken, waking-night cover or a second carer may be recommended.
