When complex care needs arise, having round-the-clock support becomes vital. At Radfield Home Care, our 24/7 home care service provides unwavering assistance and peace of mind. We understand that everyone is unique, and our tailored approach ensures that your specific needs are met with compassion and expertise.

What is 24-Hour Home Care?

Live in care and other round-the-clock care services are often referred to as “24-hour home care services.” This means a Care Professional is consistently available to provide support at home. However, it’s important to note that no 24-hour live in care service can provide immediate care 24/7, as carers are entitled to statutory breaks and rest periods. These necessary breaks ensure that Care Professionals remain sharp and able to deliver the highest quality of care. Alongside the Care Professional staying in your home, Radfield Home Care also has local offices that can be contacted at all times, whether by telephone, email, or in person.

Personalised Care Plans to Meet Your Needs

Deciding on 24-hour care at home can be daunting, but we are here to guide you through the process. Our experienced care advisors will work closely with you to create a personalised care plan that meets your specific needs and preferences. At Radfield Home Care, you can rest assured that you are receiving the highest level of care and support. Our approach to full-time home care services means that your care plan is tailored to fit seamlessly into your life. From the initial assessment through regular reviews, we ensure that every detail of your care is carefully managed to your satisfaction. This includes:

Personal care – Assistance with daily activities such as washing, dressing, and grooming.

Medication management – Ensuring timely and accurate administration of medications.

Companionship – Offering emotional support and engagement to enhance your quality of life.

Specialist care – Meeting the needs of those with chronic conditions, post-surgery needs, or other complex health requirements.

Advantages of Receiving 24-Hour Care at Home

Receiving continuous home care has numerous advantages that can significantly improve the quality of life for individuals in need of constant care. One of the primary benefits of round-the-clock care is the personalised attention and care the individual receives. Caregivers can focus solely on one person’s needs, ensuring that they receive the highest level of care possible. Being in a familiar environment can be comforting for individuals, especially those suffering from conditions like dementia. This familiarity helps reduce feelings of confusion and anxiety, promoting a sense of security and well-being.

Despite needing assistance, individuals receiving round-the-clock care can maintain a level of independence. They can continue with their daily routines and habits, contributing to their overall happiness and satisfaction. At home, individuals have the freedom to make choices about their daily routines, meals, and activities, which enhances their self-esteem and overall quality of life. Additionally, being able to maintain a familiar routine provides a sense of normalcy and stability, particularly beneficial for individuals with cognitive impairments.

How to Know When It’s Time for 24-Hour Care

Determining when it is time for 24-hour care for a loved one can be a challenging decision. Several indicators may suggest the need for this level of care, including a significant decline in physical health, such as frequent falls or an inability to perform daily tasks like bathing, dressing, or eating. Cognitive impairments, such as advanced stages of dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, may also necessitate constant supervision. If the individual’s medical condition requires complex care routines or frequent medical attention, full-time in-home care may be necessary.

Is 24-Hour Home Care an Alternative to Care Homes?

24-hour home care can be considered as an alternative to care homes. This type of care provides continuous support for individuals within the comfort of their own homes. It is particularly beneficial for those who require constant assistance but wish to maintain a sense of independence and familiarity with their surroundings. Day-and-night home assistance offers a personalised approach to meet the individual’s specific needs and preferences, which may not always be feasible in a care home setting. While care homes continue to be a viable option for many, 24-hour care presents an equally effective alternative for those seeking a more personalised and homely care experience.

How Much Does 24-Hour Care at Home Cost?

The cost of round-the-clock care depends on the provider’s location and the quality of the service offered. The cost of 24-hour live in care services can start from about £1,500 per week, but it ultimately depends on your unique needs. It is important to find a provider that can offer the package that best suits your requirements.
