Types of home care we provide in Dorset

Finding the right care can be overwhelming, especially when trying to understand the nuances of different at-home care options. At The Good Care Group, we’re here to make things as simple as possible, with specialised live-in care in Dorset and the surrounding area. 

Personalised live-in care in Dorset

For those living with complex care needs, live-in care offers a compassionate, personalised alternative to a residential care home. One of our fully certified live-in carers will move into the home to provide round-the-clock support, whenever it’s needed.

We carefully match every client with a carer who not only has experience with specific health conditions, but also shares similar interests and values — ensuring comfort, dignity, and continuity of care.

With live-in care in Dorset, your loved one can stay in the place that feels most familiar and secure. Whether you’re living with Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, cancer, or require care for both yourself and a spouse, live-in care is a highly personalised solution that puts your loved one first.

And, if clinical care is needed, we deliver specialist, nurse-led care, overseen by experienced clinicians. Our professional carers are specially  trained for PEG feeding, insulin administration or stoma care, helping your loved one to remain safe, independent, and supported at home.

Why choose home care from The Good Care Group?

We believe in providing the very best home care in Dorset, since we know there’s nowhere better than the comfort of your own home. It’s why we’re one of the only care providers awarded with an ‘Outstanding’ rating by the CQC — because we’re here to keep as many people living independently at home as possible, with remarkable care.
