Alcedo Live-In Care FAQs

What is Regulated Live-in Care?

Regulated live-in care is an alternative to moving into a care or nursing home. A professional carer comes to live with you in your own home and provides you with companionship, support, care, and nursing support around the clock if required.

When families are faced with the realisation that their family member or loved one requires full time care and support, the traditional choice would be a residential care home. However, with the vast majority of people wishing to stay in their own home live-in care is fast becoming a preferred choice.

Staying in your own home, enjoying your own surroundings’ safety, and familiarity while maintaining your independence is something live-in care can provide.

Having a professional carer living in your home offers the one-to-one personalised support required to provide peace of mind for family members and loved ones.

Benefits of Regulated Live-in Care vs a Residential Care Home

  • Staying independent and safe in your own home with your belongings, your established preferred routines, and regular contact with family and friends.
  • Maintaining and improving health and well-being by removing the stress and worry of safely maintaining your independence.
  • Companionship and support around the clock carer removes the fear of loneliness, vulnerability, and insecurity, which is sometimes caused by being alone.
  • Peace of Mind for the person receiving the support and for their family and loved ones.
  • Avoiding separation from loved-ones or a beloved pet, being surrounded by cherished possessions in a familiar and comfortable environment.
  • Way of life and holidays carry on living your life the way you want to, continue to enjoy your hobbies and holidays.
  • Remove the pressure from family and friends who may have become your full-time carer, which can be stressful, time-consuming, and sometimes detrimental to their health.

What do Regulated Live-in Carers do?

A regulated live-in carer’s main job is to provide the individual care services required to keep the person needing the care, safe, comfortable, and independent in their own home.

The daily activities may include as much or as little of the following tasks as required:

  • Companionship and support.
  • Domestic duties and housekeeping.
  • Personal care, medication, and nursing support.
  • Nutrition, hydration, and well-being checks.
  • Transport and support out in the community.
  • Caring for your pets.

 

Each regulated live-in care package is tailored to your exact needs with the central focus on allowing you to maintain and improve your health and well-being while enriching your life and remaining independent and safe in your own home.

Who is Regulated Live-in Care For?

Regulated live-in care is for individuals or couples of all ages who want to live their lives independently and safely in their own home while receiving the care and support they require from their chosen carer. Living at home allows them to maintain their lifestyle and live their lives the way they choose.

Alcedo Care can provide tailored care packages to cover all aspects of your care needs from companionship and support to complex nurse-led care packages.

However, all of our care packages have in common our passion, professionalism, and commitment to allow you to maintain your independence while enriching your life.

Regulated live-in care can be used for support in several different situations, such as respite care, which is short-term flexible care to cover, say a period of convalescence after a hospital stay, or to cover a carer’s holidays.

If there is an ongoing requirement for around the clock support, regulated live-in care allows individuals or couples to continue to live safely and well in their own home while maintaining their independence.

How Does Regulated Live-in Care Work?

Initial Enquiry

Once we receive your enquiry one of our team will contact you as soon as possible. We will answer any questions you may have about our service or any aspect of live-in care you would like to learn more about.

Detailed Care Assessment

Once you have met with a team member and the assessment has been completed, and the costs and level of care have been discussed and agreed, we would then send you a profile of our recommended carer. Suppose you are happy with the carer profile, in that case, we will arrange for a telephone call or a video call via Zoom or Skype so that you can ask questions and better get to know our proposed carer.

Once care starts, access to our OneTouch system will be given to you, which allows real-time access to your care records, which helps your family or loved ones keep up to date with your care if you want to grant them access.
