Live-In Care vs Other Care Settings
Live-in care refers to a care arrangement where a carer resides in the same house as the person receiving care and provides round-the-clock assistance. This type of care is distinct from other care settings such as nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and in-home care services.
Benefits of Live-In Care:
- Continuity of Care: The same carer provides support to the person receiving care, leading to a consistent and personalized care experience.
- Increased Independence: Live-in care provides support while allowing the person receiving care to maintain their independence and dignity.
- Increased Safety: Having a carer present 24/7 provides peace of mind and improved safety for the person receiving care.
- Better Quality of Life: Live-in care can lead to improved emotional and physical well-being for the person receiving care, as well as their carer.
Disadvantages of Live-In Care:
- Cost: Live-in care can be more expensive compared to other care options.
- Lack of Privacy: Sharing a home with a carer can lead to reduced privacy for both the person receiving care and their carer.
- Demands on Carer: Live-in care can be physically and emotionally demanding for the carer, leading to burnout and decreased quality of care.
In conclusion, live-in care is a unique care setting that offers personalized and continuous support but also comes with its own set of challenges. When considering live-in care, it’s important to weigh the benefits and disadvantages and choose the best option for the person receiving care and their family.

Local Authority Funding
Local Authority Care Funding can help cover the costs of live-in care for those who are eligible. This is a common way for people to get support for their care needs.
Local Authority Care Funding, also known as Continuing Healthcare or NHS Funded Nursing Care, is a government-funded program that provides financial support for people with complex health needs. To be eligible for this funding, a person must have a primary health need and be assessed as requiring a significant amount of support.
If a person is eligible for Local Authority Care Funding, they may be able to use the funds to pay for live-in care. This can help cover the costs of a live-in carer and the associated expenses, making it a more affordable option for many people.
It is important to note that eligibility for Local Authority Care Funding can vary depending on the local authority and the specific circumstances of the person in need of care. If you are considering live-in care and would like to explore whether you are eligible for this funding, we recommend speaking with a social worker or care coordinator at your local authority.
In conclusion, Local Authority Care Funding can be a valuable resource for those in need of live-in care, providing financial support to help cover the costs of care.
Eligibility for Funding
A Care Needs Assessment is an important step in the process of obtaining live-in care. It is a thorough evaluation of a person’s care needs, which helps to determine the level of support and assistance they require. A Social Worker, Occupational Therapist or a Nurse from the local council will agree with you how to carry out your assessment.
The following are some of the key components of a Care Needs Assessment for live-in care:
- Medical Assessment: A medical professional, such as a doctor or nurse, will assess the person’s overall health and well-being, including any physical or cognitive limitations they may have.
- Functionality Assessment: A care professional will assess the person’s ability to perform daily activities such as bathing, dressing, eating, and mobility.
- Home Assessment: The care professional will also assess the person’s living environment to determine if any modifications are necessary to ensure their safety and comfort.
- Personal and Social Assessment: This component of the assessment takes into account the person’s social, emotional, and psychological well-being. It considers the person’s relationships, interests, and lifestyle, as well as their personal care and hygiene needs.
- Care Plan Development: Based on the information gathered during the assessment, the care professional will work with the person and their family to develop a personalised care plan that meets their unique needs and preferences.
