Live-In Care in West Sussex

FT Care Agency Limited provides professional, compassionate live-in care across West Sussex, with a FREE assessment by an NMC Registered Nurse within 24 hours of your enquiry.

Free nurse assessment

Within 24 hours of your enquiry

Every new client benefits from a FREE comprehensive assessment completed by an NMC Registered Nurse, usually within 24 hours of your enquiry. During the visit we discuss your care needs and goals, assess mobility and daily living requirements, review medication support, identify risks in the home, and build a personalised care plan together.

Every carer is Enhanced DBS checked, fully trained to CQC standards, and supported through Skills for Care funded Level 2 and Level 3 Adult Social Care Qualifications, so you can trust the person caring for your loved one in West Sussex.

Built around your circumstances

Live-in care for dementia

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 West 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.

24-hour & night care

Whether you need 24 hour care in Chichester or overnight care for elderly relatives, our carers provide awake or sleeping night cover for genuine peace of mind, every night of the week.
