Live-in Care and Home Care in Somerset
Here, at the Good Care Group, we’ve been providing high-quality live-in care in Somerset for more than 10 years. So, we know all about its natural beauty spots, like Exmoor National Park, Cheddar Gorge and the Somerset Levels. And of course, we love its world-famous cheese and cider!
Naturally, we’re passionate about supporting elderly people to remain in this beautiful part of the world they call home. Our Somerset live-in care service enables individuals to receive the support they need within the comfort of their own home.
Whether you’re looking for personal care and companionship or more intensive support with a complex condition, like Parkinson’s, dementia or multiple sclerosis (MS), our team is here to help you at every step.
Benefits of Live-in Care in Somerset
We understand how challenging it is to leave an environment you love so much. It’s why we’re so passionate about empowering elderly people to remain at home for longer with the care we provide.
There are many good care homes in Somerset, but they’re no substitute for the comfortable surroundings of the family home and all its cherished memories. With our live-in care service, there’s none of the distress or readjustment.
Instead, a highly-trained professional carer will move into the home to provide one-to-one support. They’re on-hand whenever needed – for total peace of mind. It’s a dedicated level of support a care home just can’t provide.
Our care is completely personalised to the individual too. Plans adapt and evolve to meet changing medical and personal needs.
Key Benefits of Live-in Care in Somerset
✔ Remain at Home: you get to stay in the place you know and love.
✔ Bespoke Care: tailored to meet individual needs.
✔ Greater Sense of Wellbeing: the companionship of a full-time live-in carer reduces isolation and provides peace of mind.
✔ Complex Condition Support: we can support people affected by cancer, dementia, Parkinson’s and much more.

Claire Curtis
Regional Care Manager,
I have over 18 years of experience in the care industry and started my career working for Hampshire county council. During the 13 years I worked for the council, I worked with a range of clients over 60, living with a variety of physical and mental health conditions, however mostly clients were living with cognitive impairment. One of my main roles was as a multidisciplinary partner, responsible for facilitating hospital discharge. My responsibilities included ensuring clients’ needs were met in line with family expectations. I gained many different skills whilst working for Hampshire county council and found it rewarding transferring skills I have learnt onto other members of the team. I educated clinical staff to ensure they understood the Mental Capacity Act and the implications on service provision.
I have supported many vulnerable adults living with dementia and I am passionate about supporting people with their personal journey to ensure their lives are stimulating, fulfilling and meaningful.
As your Regional Manager in , I am accountable for the service delivered to my clients and the support we provide to families. I have a team of dedicated care managers in Cornwall who work with you day to day to ensure that in partnership with you we create and deliver a high quality, holistic care plan which enables you to maintain choice and independence through personalised care and support. Your dedicated care manager will work with you, family members, health care professionals and the professional carers assigned to you to enable you to stay safely and happily in your own home and community. Through regular contact with you, both face-to face and via telephone contact, they will ensure the plan of care meets your evolving needs.
I joined The Good Care Group in July 2018 as a Care Manager and in April 2020 I was promoted to Regional Manager. I believe live-in care to be the best option for those who need long-term care as it promotes independence and companionship. It enables couples and individuals to stay in their own home with personalised one-to-one support which is difficult to achieve in other settings.
