Is This Right For You?

Who Benefits from Live-In Care?

Live-in care turns worry into reassurance. Someone is there for every meal, every routine, every quiet moment keeping your loved one safe, nourished, and engaged. It's more than support, it's relief.

Skipping Meals & Proper Nutrition

If your parent starts to skip meals, miss medication, or have difficulty with personal hygiene, you can't leave them alone. With live-in care, your parent will be well-cared for, and your family can enjoy the precious time spent with them, not worrying about their safety.

Supervision & Safety

If your loved one is showing signs of forgetfulness, confusion, and withdrawal, daily routines are not enough. Live-in care provides supervision, and companionship, so you can focus on being their child, not their caregiver.

Post Hospital or Illness Recovery

Your parent might need assistance with mobility, meals, and personal care following surgery or illness. Temporary live-in care ensures that all of your parent's needs are catered for, thus helping your parent recover in the comfort of their own home.

When the Caregiver Also Needs Care

Both parents live on their own, and your mom has always been a caregiver to your dad, but she also needs care, leaving him without anyone to look after him. Live-in care will provide safety, support, and company for both, allowing you to be a child and not a caregiver.

Long Distance Worry

You live miles away balancing your own family life and work, and your parent stays home alone. With live-in care, there's constant support and safety, and you get regular updates to feel close and reassured, even from a distance.

Why You Need a Plan of Care for Your Loved One?

A Plan of Care tells you exactly what level of support your loved one needs without committing to anything. We put it together because every family making this decision deserves clarity before they commit.

Fill out one plan of care. Walk away with caregiver profiles, the right questions to ask homecare providers and caregivers, and a roadmap because every family deserves clarity before they commit to anything.

Getting Started Is Simple

A Clear, Guided Process from Initial Call to Caregiver Match

  1. Reach out by phone or by filling out our online form, and THREE things come back to you. A FREE foundational Plan of Care tailored to you and your loved one, along with potential caregiver(s) profile(s) near you, and a list of questions to ask home care agencies.

  2. Our goal is to create the most effective Plan of Care for your loved one. One of our Client Managers will reach out to schedule an in-home visit. This allows us to get to know you and your loved one personally, understand their needs, and assess the home for safety. We'll note any existing adaptive equipment and flag any adjustments that could better support their independence at home.

  3. Based on everything we have learned about your loved one, we will send you a couple of pre-selected caregiver profiles that we believe are a good match for your loved one's needs, preferences, hobbies, personality, etc. Once you have chosen a caregiver you feel good about, you have the option to meet them before services begin.

  4. On the first day of services, our Field Supervisor will be on-site to ensure the Plan of Care is fully understood and followed. Clients are encouraged to ask questions, and we will be there to ease the transition every step of the way. From there, our Field Supervisor will continue with monthly in-home visits to ensure quality care is maintained.

Common Questions

Live-In Care — Questions Families Ask

How does live-in care work?

Live-in care means a dedicated caregiver stays in your loved one's home, providing consistent daily support, companionship, and help with routines like meals, mobility, and personal care. They are actively present throughout the day and rest overnight while remaining available if needed.

What does the caregiver need from our home?

Live-in caregivers require a private bedroom for their personal space. Most families also provide basic meals or a meal allowance, though these details are discussed and agreed upon before placement begins.

Is live-in care available throughout Connecticut?

Yes — we provide live-in caregivers to all 169 towns and cities across Connecticut. Whether you are in Hartford, New Haven, Stamford, or a smaller town, we can arrange care in your area.

What happens if the caregiver needs time off or is sick?

We manage all relief caregiver coverage. If your primary caregiver needs time off or becomes unavailable, we arrange a secondary caregiver to ensure no gap in service. Your loved one is never without support.

How is live-in care different from a nursing home or assisted living?

Live-in home care allows your loved one to stay in the comfort and familiarity of their own home — with one-on-one, personalized attention. Assisted living facilities serve many residents at once and involve moving out of the family home. Most families find that home care is not only more comfortable, but often more cost-effective than a private room in a facility.

Can we request a caregiver who speaks our language?

Absolutely. We specialize in language and cultural matching — one of our key strengths since 1989. We have caregivers who speak Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, and several other languages. Just let us know during your consultation.

How quickly can live-in care begin?

In many cases, we can arrange live-in care within 48–72 hours of your initial consultation. For urgent situations, please call us directly at (860) 829-0208 and we will do our best to expedite placement.
