Live-in care services in Ealing
Whether you need a carer introduced to you directly, a fully managed care arrangement, or a qualified nurse living in your home, we have a service to fit your needs and preferences.
Introductory live-in care
With our introductory live-in care service, we recruit a self-employed carer who works in your home for you, independently of us. In contrast to our managed live-in care service, with introductory care, we do not direct, supervise or manage the carers we introduce to you, and the carers are paid directly by you.
Managed live-in care
Our fully managed live-in care service is regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in England, which results in regular inspections to ensure the care we provide is of the highest standard. We fully manage the service, which means carers are supervised, managed and monitored by us when working in a client’s home.
What is live in care?
Live-in care is a fully personalised service where a trained, professional carer moves into your home and provides one-to-one support at all hours of the day and night. It is a genuine, people-centred alternative to a care home, allowing you to stay surrounded by the familiar comforts, faces, and routines of your own home rather than adapting to an unfamiliar setting. We believe wholeheartedly that life is better at home, and that conviction shapes everything we do.
Your carer takes the time to get to know you properly from the very beginning, understanding your preferences, daily rhythms, and the small details that make your life unique to you and meaningful. Practical support with personal care, mealtimes, household tasks, and medication sits alongside genuine companionship that makes a real difference to everyday wellbeing. A dedicated care manager maintains close contact with you and your family throughout, adjusting your care plan whenever your circumstances or needs change.

When live in care is the right choice
Live-in care is suitable for a wide range of individuals and circumstances. You or your loved one may benefit from live-in care if:
You value your independence and want to remain active in your community, without the disruption of moving into a residential care home.
You or a family member is managing a progressive condition such as dementia, Parkinson's, or multiple sclerosis and needs specialist support.
You are returning home following a hospital admission and require immediate, round-the-clock care to support a safe and comfortable recovery.
A family carer needs a planned or emergency break, and you need trusted respite care to ensure continuity of support.
You are a couple who wish to remain living together in your own home while both receiving tailored personal care.
You require palliative or end-of-life care in the dignity and privacy of the home you know and love.

I joined Consultus in 2018 and spent a year at Head Office before deciding to join the Managed Care Department and work remotely as a Local Consultant.
My role as a Local Consultant is varied every day and I love that my role enables me to meet and work with our lovely clients and carers. My role as a Local Consultant is incredibly rewarding and I feel privileged to help people to remain in their homes and to provide them with outstanding care.

Ealing live-in care FAQs

Our carers are trained to support people living with a wide variety of conditions, including dementia, Parkinson's disease, stroke recovery, cancer, heart disease, and reduced mobility, as well as providing palliative care.

Yes. Live-in care is a particularly well-suited option for couples who both require support. One carer can provide care for both individuals, enabling you to remain together in your own home while each receiving personalised attention. For many couples, this also proves considerably more affordable than two residential care placements.
We take considerable care in matching carers to clients, considering personality, shared interests, communication preferences, and specific care needs.
