About Part Time Care

Part-time live-in care provides support from a dedicated carer who will live with you part-time during the week when you require extra assistance around the home but aren’t quite ready for a round-the-clock carer.

A live-in carer provides you with physical and practical care, whilst also providing emotional support and companionship. We take care when selecting the team members we partner with people when providing our live-in care services to ensure this benefit is maximised.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the different types of care homes?

The different types of care homes are residential homes, nursing homes, and specialist care homes, such as dementia care homes. Other types of residential care include assisted living and retirement villages.

What is the difference between a residential care home and a nursing home?

The main difference between a residential home and a nursing home is that a nursing home has a qualified nurse on-site 24-hours a day to provide necessary medical care. This means nursing homes can provide a higher level of care.

Can I change care homes if I am not happy?

If you or a loved one have moved into a care home but feel that you struggle to settle in, it is not the right fit or the location stops family from visiting regularly, you can change care homes. Make sure that you have read the terms of your contract to avoid any issues.

Can I get help with paying for care home fees?

Depending on your financial circumstances and your care needs, you may be able to receive help with paying your care costs. If you have capital below a certain amount, which varies between countries in the UK, your local authority will contribute towards your fees. The NHS may cover your nursing care fees in some circumstances and there are a few benefits you can claim while living in a care home.
