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.
Round-the-clock support, tailored to you
Your live-in carer’s day is built entirely around your routine. Common areas of support include:
Washing, dressing and mobility support, delivered with dignity, whenever needed.
Prompts and assistance so medication is never missed, day or night.
Meals & nutrition
Home-cooked meals prepared around your preferences and dietary needs.
Housekeeping
Light housekeeping and laundry to keep the home comfortable and safe.
Companionship
A constant, familiar presence — conversation, hobbies and company.
Overnight support
Awake or sleeping night cover, so help is on hand around the clock.
