Live-in & Respite Care

Introducing Live-in & Respite Care

We now offer a Live-in & Respite Care service, offering families a solution that lets loved ones remain safe and supported in the comfort of their own homes.

What are Live-In and Respite Care?

At Home Instead Broadstairs, Ramsgate & Margate, we understand that the thought of moving into a care home can be daunting – for both individuals and their families. That’s why we’ve introduced Live-in Care in Broadstairs, Ramsgate and Margate: a compassionate, flexible service that allows people to receive one-to-one support in a place they know and love. Whether it’s help with personal care, medication, mobility or simply companionship, Live-in Care provides round-the-clock support without sacrificing independence or routine.

Our Respite Care service provides support for older people and their carers, whether it’s required in an emergency, regular or one-off basis. It’s designed to give families a well-earned break. Whether it’s a few days for a few weeks, our trained professionals step in to ensure your loved one received high quality support with disruption.

How it works

A dedicated Care Professional lives in your home, becoming a trusted companion while providing help with daily activities such as personal hygiene, dressing, mobility, meal preparation, and medication. It’s ideal for individuals who require consistent assistance throughout the day but want to remain in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. We’re supporting many families who see this as a cost-effective option – particularly for couples who wish to stay together.

Benefits of Live-in care

Here’s why many families across Broadstairs, Ramsgate & Margate are turning to Live-In Care:

• 24/7 One-to-one Care: Round-the-clock assistance ensures someone is always there to help or respond to emergencies
• Personalised Routine: Care tailored to your lifestyle and needs
• Companionship: Live-in carers provide consistent social interaction and emotional support, decreasing loneliness
• Independence and Comfort: Stay in familiar surroundings, with your own routines and schedule
• Continuous Monitoring: Daily check-ups from the office team in addition to your Live-in Carer
• Family peace of mind: Knowing your loved one always has the help of someone day and night

Unlike hourly care, which suits those with occasional or less intensive needs, Live-in care is designed for individuals who benefit from continuous support and regular companionship. It combines the guarantee of full-time assistance with the comfort and familiarity of your own home, making it an ideal choice for those with more complex needs or a strong desire to stay in their own environment.
