Live-in care in Cardiff
Live-in care in Cardiff provides your loved one with safe, dependable care at home, helping restore their independence and routine. A fully trained carer moves into your family member's property to provide one-to-one support around the clock, from meal preparation to personal care.
Managed live-in care and nursing is ideal for older adults struggling with daily tasks or social isolation, those living with a chronic condition, people recovering from illness, or even couples who want to stay together at home.
The Welsh capital of Cardiff is home to approximately 362,300 people (Census 2021, collected during the COVID-19 pandemic), with 13.5% (49,000) of its residents aged 65 and over. The city's growing ageing population is causing many older adults and their families to weigh up their care options and find a better alternative to residential care or a nursing home.

Home care in Cardiff
There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to live-in care, as every family has different needs, budgets, and preferences. For this reason, we offer various options for home care in Cardiff to match your family's specific requirements, such as overnight care and respite care.
Our live-in care service is our most comprehensive option, as a dedicated carer lives in your family member's home to provide one-to-one, around-the-clock support. You can also choose from our fully managed or introductory service for care at home in Cardiff, resulting in more choice and flexibility than most providers.

- CQC OVERALL RATING: GOOD
Independently inspected and regulated by the Care Quality Commission
Our managed live-in care service is assessed across five key inspection domains - all rated Good
What does CQC regulation mean for your family?
Our fully managed live-in care service is regulated and inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), England's independent regulator of health and adult social care. This means our managed carers are supervised and accountable to a regulated framework - and our service is rated Good across all five CQC inspection domains.
Our introductory live-in care service introduces you directly to a self-employed carer. This service is not CQC regulated, as the carer works for you independently. We will always guide you to the service that genuinely meets your needs.

Who can benefit from live-in care in Cardiff?
Live-in care is suitable for anyone who needs extra help in the home, particularly those with complex medical and mobility needs. Find out more about some of the common conditions and circumstances we can support:
Dementia and Alzheimer's care: According to Stats Wales (2024), an estimated 6,000 people aged 65 and over are living with dementia across the Cardiff and Vale University Health Board area. A dedicated, highly trained carer provides continuity, a consistent routine, and familiar surroundings, which is essential for people living with dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
As Consultus Care also works with the University Hospital of Wales (UHW), part of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, the main acute hospital for Cardiff, our team can support post-discharge care planning and patients' safe return home. With around 49,000 people aged 65+ in Cardiff (Census 2021, collected during the COVID-19 pandemic), having this support in place is vital.
Neurological conditions: Our live-in care service supports people living with stroke, brain injury, multiple sclerosis (MS), or a spinal injury. We carefully tailor every care plan to your family member's specific clinical and personal needs, allowing people across Cardiff to remain at home rather than entering residential care.
Systemic and long-term conditions: Our compassionate carers and nurses provide specialist support for heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, including palliative and end-of-life care for people who want to remain at home during a serious illness.
Hospital discharge and rehabilitation: We provide post-operative care and rehabilitation support at home to help many of the Cardiff residents discharged from the University Hospital of Wales each year following surgery, illness, or a fall. This helps people regain their independence faster and avoids hospital readmission, and we even offer this service as live-in respite care in Cardiff for family carers.
