If you’re searching for live-in care in Ulverston, Barrow-in-Furness, or the surrounding areas, you want to find the best possible support for your loved one. Live-in care is a fantastic alternative to residential care homes, allowing people to remain in the comfort of their own homes while receiving round-the-clock assistance. But how do you choose the right provider?
At Lakeland Care, we understand how important this decision is. With over 15 years of experience providing exceptional care in South Cumbria, we are proud to be one of the highest-rated care providers in the area, scoring 10/10 on Homecare.co.uk. We are also an employee-owned company, meaning every member of our team is personally invested in delivering the highest quality of care.
What is Live-In Care?
Live-in care means that a dedicated carer moves into your loved one’s home, providing support tailored to their specific needs. This includes:
- Personal care (bathing, dressing, medication support)
- Companionship (someone to chat with, reducing loneliness)
- Household tasks (cleaning, cooking, laundry)
- Specialist care (for conditions like dementia, mobility issues, or palliative needs)
- Support for hobbies & outings (so life remains enjoyable and fulfilling)
Unlike care homes, live-in care ensures one-to-one, personalised attention—allowing your loved one to maintain independence and stay in familiar surroundings.
