It’s important to feel in control when getting older – to ensure things are done your own way, even when you need some help doing them. Elder offers a range of live-in care services that help older people keep the life they know and love, all while getting the care they need.
Make later life better with live-in care
Elder is an award winning live-in care agency offering an alternative solution to a care home.
Whether you’re looking for someone to keep an older relative company, or help with more personal things like getting washed and dressed, they’ll take care to really get to know your situation. Supported by their smart matching technology, Elder Care Advisors will work with you to find a carer who fits your needs, your lifestyle and your family.
Elder has a network of over 4000 vetted, self-employed carers across the UK, and have helped hundreds of customers get the right full-time live in care. The carers they work with have experience caring for many complex conditions and circumstances, and help ensure as many people as possible can remain safe, comfortable and happy in their own homes.
With Elder live-in care, a fully vetted carer will move into the home to provide personalised care and support. They’ll offer a listening ear, adapt to you and your loved one’s routine, and support with anything from washing and dressing, to preparing meals and helping with hobbies.
Elder offers two types of live-in care – permanent and short-term. Depending on your needs and your support network, you may find both of these types useful at different points in your care journey.

With permanent live-in care, Elder will provide care for as long as it fits your needs, and assign a carer as your primary companion. However you won’t be tied into a contract either -so if you need to pause or stop your care, you can.
Of course, every carer needs some time off, so every few weeks they’ll take a break and Elder will arrange for another carer to provide quality cover until they return.
You may not be quite ready for permanent live-in care, however you still might find you need some help from time to time.
Elder’s short-term live-in care offers the same support as permanent live-in care, but for as little as three days at a time.
This type of care can help provide periods of respite to the whole family. It can also ensure one-to-one support is in place following a hospital stay, or provide cover if a primary caregiver needs a break, or falls ill.
