How we provide live in care in Glasgow

There are several different situations when live in care can be used to support your care and support needs, including:

  • 24-hour live-in care for when round the clock care is needed to ensure a person can continue to live well in their own home.
  • Respite care can provide a family carer with a much-needed break from caring for a loved one, or can be used as an opportunity to see how live-in care works and whether it is right for you and your family.
  • Short term care or intermediate care following discharge from a Glasgow hospital or for those needing post-operative rehabilitation.
  • Complex care of medical and specialist conditions like dementia, Parkinson’s or Multiple Sclerosis can be supported with 24-hour home care – there is no need to go into a care home to receive this level of care.
  • End-of-life/palliative care which ensures a person’s needs and preferences are met until the very end of their life.
  • Emergency care for those who need an urgent live-in care arrangement put in place following unexpected surgery an accident or sudden illness.

Meet our local team in Glasgow

We operate throughout England and Scotland with a local approach to management of our teams near you. Each dedicated care manager local to you has only a small number of clients to support. This means they can provide higher levels of monitoring and support than other home care providers. It also means a highly personalised approach to care can be delivered.

Our professional carers in Glasgow complete our industry-leading training programme, regardless of their prior experience. This ensures they can support a range of conditions affecting older individuals, including complex needs requiring additional monitoring, care, and support.

In-house carer training

All of our carers complete a training programme developed by in-house clinicians before being assigned to a placement. Plus, they’ll receive additional enhanced training for complex care needs.

Fully managed service

We are not a care agency. We directly employ, train, and supervise all of our carers. That means you’ll receive consistent, reliable support, from carers we know and trust.

Dementia care experts

Our in-house experts, including Clinical Lead Sabah Shah and Dementia Champion Nichola Proctor, support our care teams to deliver compassionate dementia care at every stage of the condition.

Award-winning care

We’ve won more awards than any other home care provider for our service, training and culture. Including a Home Care Award, and a National Dementia Care Award.

Benefits of live-in care

Highly personalised one-to-one care from a live-in carer in Glasgow just cannot be provided in a care home. The way you choose to live your life will be restricted by imposed routines – when to get up, eat your food and when to socialise. For couples, live-in care in Glasgow means you can stay together as a loving couple with the care and support you need. This is not guaranteed if both of you move into a residential care home. Live-in care for couples is a very cost-effective option when compared to needing two packages of care in a care home – with live-in care in Glasgow there is only a nominal additional fee to provide care to a couple.
