Live-In Care Across East Sussex

A dedicated live-in carer, in your own home, day and night. FT Care Agency Limited provides round-the-clock, CQC-registered live-in care across the whole of East Sussex — a genuine alternative to a care home.

One-to-one care, at home

Live-in care across East Sussex

Live-in care means a dedicated, DBS-checked carer moves into your home to provide round-the-clock support — help with personal care, meals, medication, mobility and companionship, day and night.

For families across Hastings, Eastbourne, Lewes, Uckfield and every corner of East Sussex, live-in care offers the reassurance of 24-hour supervision while allowing your loved one to remain independent, safe and settled in familiar surroundings.

Live-in care for dementia patients offers calm, familiar routines and a consistent carer who gets to know your loved one well — reducing confusion and supporting daily living at home in East Sussex.

Live-in care for couples

Live-in care for couples means partners can stay together at home, with one or two carers supporting both, rather than being separated into different care settings.

Questions, answered

Live-in care FAQs

How much does live-in care cost?
Live-in care cost in the UK varies depending on the level of support needed. FT Care Agency Limited provides a clear, no-obligation quote after a free assessment — contact us to discuss your circumstances.
How is live-in care different from a care home?
Live-in care allows you or your loved one to remain in your own home with a dedicated carer, rather than moving into a residential setting. It offers one-to-one attention, familiar surroundings, and the option for couples and pets to stay together.
Can a live-in carer support someone with dementia?
Yes. We provide live-in care for dementia patients, with consistent, familiar carers who help maintain routine, reduce anxiety and support safety at home.
Do you provide night care as well as daytime support?
Yes. Our live-in carers provide 24-hour cover, including night care for elderly clients across East Sussex — whether that’s awake night support or sleeping cover with call-out availability.
Can live-in care support couples?
Yes. Live-in care for couples means one or two carers can support both partners together at home, so couples don’t need to be separated.
Which areas do you provide live-in care in?
