Irish people want to remain in their own homes for as long as possible - Home Instead are here to help!

Irish people want to remain in their own homes for as long as possible, even if they require assistance with daily tasks such as getting dressed or preparing meals.

Having a small team of CAREGivers provide such support maintains a persons’ independence in their own home and is a realistic desired alternative to nursing home care.

Home care bridges the gap between ageing at home and transitioning to a nursing home. While nursing homes have their place, there is no place like home.

Ageing individuals benefit from the familiarity and comfort of their surroundings, cherished memories, and the independence they deserve.

How Does Live-In Care Work?

Like all Home Instead care plans, live-in care plans are designed by your local care manager and based on your loved one’s specific requirements.

Our primary CAREGiver resides with the client and is on active duty for seven hours a day, six days a week.

Cover is provided by the local office for the seventh day, the live-in CAREGivers day off. They provide your loved one’s care as and when it is needed, as the sample timetable on the picture shows.

CAREGiver Selection and Training

Our live-in CAREGivers are recruited both locally and through our international Home Instead partners. They are fully vetted, have excellent references and participate in our comprehensive training prior to starting work with our clients.

We take great care to ensure that clients’ interests are matched to those of their CAREGiver. CAREGivers can access 24-hour support from their local office.

Tax Relief

Costs of live-in care can be significantly reduced through the Home Care Tax Relief Scheme. Costs can be reduced by up to 40% and more information can be learned through the HomeInstead.ie website or by chatting to our Midlands team on 044 938 5260
