Live-in Home Care for Seniors

Live-in care is an alternative to other full-time aged care solutions such as nursing homes, and allows seniors experiencing complex or ongoing care needs to remain in their own home with the support of live-in professional care workers. This type of care can be incredibly important in helping your senior loved one to maintain their sense of independence and avoid unnecessary disruptions to their lifestyle, all while remaining safe and cared for.

Whether your loved one requires care throughout the week on a full-time basis, or part-time care to compliment the care given by family members and primary carers, they can benefit greatly from live-in home care services from Care For Family.

Full-time care

For those requiring round-the-clock care, seven days a week, Care For Family can provide up to four dedicated care workers throughout the week. These care workers work on a roster of 24-hour shifts, and live within the home with your loved one throughout their shift. A live-in care worker is available 24-hours per day to assist your loved one with their needs, however, they will normally sleep throughout the night.

We understand that it can be almost impossible to predict the needs of your elderly loved one in advance, and that they may require help throughout the night on occasion. Rest assured, our live-in care solutions are flexible and customisable, allowing you the freedom and peace of mind to know that your loved one is never without the help they need. 

When more care is required, an additional hourly rate can be applied, or an additional care team member can be provided to offer added support to your live-in care worker. Where ongoing care is required throughout the night, a 24-hour aged care service from Care For Family may be a more appropriate solution.

There are many reasons that someone might need a live-in care team for support, such as returning from hospital and undergoing rehabilitation and recovery, a gradual increase in the support needed due to ageing, or simply to give primary carers a break.

Our live-in home care for seniors is designed to be flexible and support you and your family, no matter how long you need us for. Live-in care can be short-term, or long-term, depending on your needs and those of your senior loved one.

Long-term live-in care is something that enables seniors to continue living at home for as long as possible, stay connected to family and friends, enjoy their social lives, and continue to be a part of their local community.

As time goes by, our experienced and compassionate care team can be provided with extra support from our registered nurses, who can assist with increasing care needs and even palliative care, when the time comes.

At Care For Family, our live-in home care solutions are offered at an hourly or packaged flat rate, depending on the type of care and level of care required. 

Our aged care solutions, including live-in care and 24-hour care, are flexible and able to be scaled up or down as your loved one’s needs change.

We offer flexible short-term and long-term live-in care solutions around Sydney and surrounds, including some regional and remote areas.
