At CRT, we offer Round-the-clock support in a place you call home. live independently with the reassurance of care always nearby.
For many people, live-in care has become the popular alternative to being in a residential care home. Live-in care offers one to one support in your own personal and private environment. It enables you to stay in your local community and close to friends who may live nearby, as well as your favourite places to meet, go walking or visit.
Having a Live-In Care Assistant gives you and your family the peace of mind that somebody is there to always help in the home as well as being a friendly and encouraging presence.
Why Choose Live-In Care
Stay in the Comfort of your home
Live-in care allows individuals to remain in a place they can call home, surrounded by familiar possessions, routines, and memories. This comfort and continuity can significantly improve emotional well-being and quality of life, especially for those with dementia or anxiety.
One-to-One Personalised Support
Unlike care homes where staff support multiple residents, live-in care provides one-to-one attention. Care is entirely tailored to the individual’s needs, preferences, and daily routines, ensuring more focused, responsive, and compassionate care.
Greater Independence and Control
With live-in care, individuals retain more freedom over their day when to wake up, eat, or go out without being bound by care home schedules. This promotes dignity, autonomy, and self-esteem.
Companionship and Emotional Stability
Having a dedicated carer living in the home offers consistent companionship and emotional support. A strong, trusting relationship can develop, reducing feelings of loneliness and isolation and providing peace of mind for both clients and families.
Safer, More Controlled Environment
Home care reduces exposure to infections and illnesses that can spread in shared residential settings. The home can be adapted for mobility or medical needs, and the carer can closely monitor health, medication, and changes in condition, promoting better outcomes.
Flexible, Tailored Care for Complex Needs
Live-in care can accommodate a wide range of needs from simple daily support to complex conditions like dementia, Parkinson’s, or stroke recovery. Care plans can evolve over time without the disruption of relocating to a new facility.

More information and FAQs
Live-in care within an extra care facility means having a dedicated Care Assistant available around the clock to provide personalised support while you live independently in your own apartment. Unlike traditional residential care, you maintain your own space and lifestyle, with the added reassurance of 24/7 assistance when needed. This care is complemented by access to communal areas and a vibrant programme of social activities, creating a balance of independence, support, and community.
Live-in care is ideal for individuals who value their independence but need regular support with daily tasks such as personal care, medication, mobility, or companionship. It’s particularly well-suited for older adults, those with long-term health conditions, or anyone who would benefit from the safety and social opportunities of an extra care setting, without giving up the comfort and privacy of their own home.
We understand the importance of consistency and trust in care. While we aim to provide continuity by assigning regular Care Assistants, there may be times when another trusted member of our team steps in, such as during breaks or holidays. All our Care Assistants are fully trained, DBS checked and familiar with your individual care plan, ensuring seamless, compassionate support at all times.
Live-in care in an extra care facility offers a more independent and flexible lifestyle compared to a traditional care home. You have your own private apartment, the freedom to set your own routine, and access to communal lounges, gardens, and organised activities. Care is tailored to your needs and delivered in your own space, rather than in a shared residential setting, giving you the best of both independence and support.
