By choosing this life-enhancing alternative to a residential care home you can receive dedicated one-to-one support and help from a trained carer – domiciliary care and live-in care is elderly care at its best.
What is the benefit of staying at Home?
You can continue to live with your love ones such as partner and pets, choose when friends and neighbours visit and decide when to get up, go out, eat and rest. If you need ongoing support for dementia care, Alzheimer’s care or palliative care, the familiarity of home can be especially helpful. Mobility and disability care can also be better supported in an environment where hazards are known and adjusted for. Think of living in homes where you have no limit of who accesses the care home-just reduce the infection of Corvid-19

Senior care that makes a difference to your life
There is much more that a live in carer can provide than is typically associated with senior care. Of course, they provide the necessary personal care but it is the emotional support, the one-to-one time and the time to just sit and chat that can make all the difference.
Naturally, there are some older people with complex medical conditions: Dementia or Parkinson’s disease, say, but again with the right carer and the right nursing support it is still possible to have in-home care. In fact, in the case of dementia, the additional social interaction available to those with care provided at home has actually been shown to improve quality of life. A carer working with a client in their own home can either organise nursing care or may themselves have the right clinical skills to provide the medical assistance needed.
Care that enables elderly people to remain independent
Find the right live-in carer
Even for those who are ill or frail, a carer and a care program tailored to your needs means you can continue living your life in the way you want, as far as is possible; with the security of dedicated one-to-one support 24/7. That means security for you and peace of mind for your family.
But it is still a big step to have someone come and live in your home. Apart from the practicalities of having enough room to accommodate a carer there may also be concerns about how you will feel emotionally having someone new living with you. Those concerns are perfectly natural and you should talk them through with friends and family first.

Why Choose Domiciliary care and Live-in Care?
There are any number of reasons why you might want to stay in your own home as you age and all of them are understandable.
There are also many reasons why someone doesn’t want to go into a care home – again all perfectly understandable. You should never feel pressured to move into a care home or feel it is your only option.
As we’ve explained there is another, better alternative to a care home and that’s domiciliary care and live-in care.
We could list all the advantages and disadvantages of care homes but sometimes it just comes down to an instinctive desire to stay in your own home – and that is possible for almost everyone. Recent research in our Better At Home Report shows that 97% of people would rather stay at home if they became frail or unwell so you’re not alone in feeling that way.
Better Quality Care
After dedicating a lifetime to your family you deserve the best quality of care in old age. Sadly, families are often dispersed geographically or unable to care for older relatives because they work full-time; so you may have to seek care from the professionals. Whatever type of care you choose remember that everyone receiving elderly care should expect the following:
Safety
You should always feel safe with your carer(s), expect them to have the relevant skills and experience, and to be well-supported so they can provide high quality care.
Consideration
Your opinions and personal preferences are important and should be treated as such. Carers should always treat you with respect and consideration.
Quality of Life
Older people are individuals and should be cared for as such. It matters what you wear, how your hair is done, what you eat and what you do for entertainment. These are some of the things that contribute to a good quality of life.
Elderly care options can be overwhelming but NPBL Healthcare is here to help you make the best decision for you so get in touch either by email on info@npblhealthcare.com or just call us on +44 7927 235660 for expert advice.
