Tailor-made support services across Exeter & East Devon
Our popular Couples Live-In Care services are now available across the Exeter and East Devon community that we support, once again. These could provide the security that you require and the ideal scenario of keeping loved-ones close by. It’s a topic discussed in our recent article, Home Care or Care Home?*
As standard, the services includes 8-10 hours of our CQC 5 Star Outstanding level of care for the primary Client, along with support for their loved one, around the clock, in the comfort and security of their home, together.
Couples Live-In Care can be built around existing routines, making sure that the favourite television programmes aren’t missed, that the regular catch ups with children or grandchildren can go ahead, as can visits with friends and connections withing the local community. In the simplest terms, you can continue deciding when you eat and sleep – just as you always have done.
All our staff are selected based on whether we would entrust them to support our own family. It’s a simple but exceptional standard that means we can feel confident in the service that we are providing. Clients can be assured of being matched with appropriate, professionally trained Care Professionals, employed and trained by Home Instead Exeter & East Devon, who will care for your loved one as they would their own family.
