What is live in care and why is it better than alternative home care options? Live in care, or 24 hour care at home, provides an experienced professional carer who lives in your home 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and not only attends to your health needs, but your daily activity needs as well.
As we get older, caring for ourselves and our homes can become too much for us to handle on our own. We begin to lose our independence and our ability to do the everyday things that we want. Live in care in Herefordshire lets you stay in the comfort of your own home and get the professional assistance you need, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Safehands Live In Care in Herefordshire is more cost-effective compared to residential care homes, hourly home care services and nursing homes.
Some examples of when families may use Herefordshire live in care include:
Clients Currently Receiving Hourly Visiting Care
If you currently receive domiciliary care from a care agency or social services, you could be paying more for less care than if you would have chosen live in care. With live in care, you get a carer living in your home 24/7 which means better, more personalised care and a level of companionship hourly care can’t match.
Home Care for Couples
Live in care in Herefordshire is now available to elderly couples when either one, or both, need personalised live in care. This ensures a higher quality of life as you both are able to live in the comfort of your own home and receive levels of care that are much more cost-effective compared to residential care homes. Additionally, most residential care homes require couples to pay for two beds instead of one.
Hospital Discharge to Home
To be discharged from the hospital, a certain level of care must be in place to ensure your health and well-being. When you choose Safehands Live In Care, a Herefordshire live in care team will work with the hospital discharge team, ward manager, nurses, doctors and specialists to ensure a much faster hospital discharge. Recovery at home is proven to be much more effective than hospital recovery times.
Elderly or Young with Specialist Care Needs
If you, or a loved one, has specialist care needs, live in care can ensure those needs are net and that they receive the care and support their condition requires. This is especially helpful in clients who have suffered a stroke, or who have dementia or Parkinson’s. The familiarity of their own home and a dedicated live in carer can help relieve many of the symptoms of their specific conditions.
Elderly Falls Prevention
As we grow older, we find ourselves with more and more mobility issues which could lead to accidents, including falls, inside our homes. This can lead to injury or hospitalization. A live in carer can help prevent that from happening by providing 24/7 assistance as needed. They can also provide urgent medical care in the event of an accident.
