Live-in Home Care Services for Seniors in Ireland
Our live-in carers provide high quality care in the comfort of the client's own home.
How live-in care works
By day, the carer does house-keeping, prepares meals, keeps company and provides personal care, if required. By night, the carer sleeps in the client’s home, up to 7 nights per week. This gives the client and their family the comfort and reassurance of knowing that there is someone else in the house at night.
She/he normally works 7 to 8 hours per day, 5 to 6 days per week, and her/his daily working schedule can be broken up into blocks of time so that she/he can be there when her/his client needs her/him most.
We can also supply a live-in carer whose role is solely to provide active night-time care and support. This is very beneficial if your relative gets up frequently at night or has problems sleeping. Because the night carer is on call at night, she/he is off duty during the day. If your relative sleeps well at night and doesn’t need assistance, then a live-in carer who sleeps by night and works by day is the appropriate choice.
Conditions we care for
- Dementia and Alzheimer's
- Parkinson's disease
- Stroke
- Post-operation recovery
- Cancer
- Blindness or deafness
- Simple companionship, with no medical condition required
If your relative has a condition that isn’t listed above, we can source a carer with the necessary skills and experience — just tell us your needs when you call. We also provide carers for younger people who are in need of care.
Our live-in carers
Our live-in carers are experienced, professional and dedicated. All ALHomecare live-in carers are reference checked and Garda vetted. Our live-in care service is a lot more affordable than a nursing home or a visiting care service.
Remember: all our placements come with a three-week trial period.
“The office team were with us every step of the way — checking in regularly and always just a phone call away when we had questions.”
