When choosing long-term care for a loved one, it’s important to weigh the benefits of live-in care versus residential care. Both have their advantages, but one may suit your family’s needs better.
What Is Live-In Care?
A trained caregiver lives in the client’s home and provides round-the-clock support with personal care, mobility, meals, companionship, and more.
Benefits of Live-In Care:
- Comfort and familiarity of home
- One-on-one attention
- Tailored routines
- Family involvement
When Residential Care Might Be Suitable:
- Complex medical needs requiring specialist equipment
- Socialisation in a communal environment
- Full-time supervision in a structured setting
