Is live-in care right for your family in Slough?
Live-in care is worth considering if your loved one:
- Needs support throughout the day and night but does not want to move into a care home.
- Has a progressive condition such as Parkinson's, MS or motor neurone disease.
- Lives alone in Slough or East Berkshire — family may live further away, leaving worry about nights, falls or medication.
If that sounds familiar, you are not alone. Our Berkshire team will listen first, then help you decide whether live-in care, visiting home care, or a mix is the better fit.

Frequently Asked Questions About Live-in Care in Slough
What is live-in care and how does it work?
Live-in care means a fully trained carer moves into your loved one’s home and provides round-the-clock support. They have their own room and work agreed hours each day, with built-in rest breaks. It means there is always someone there — overnight, at weekends and during any unexpected moment.
How quickly can live-in care start in Slough?
In straightforward cases we can arrange live-in care within a few days of assessment. For more complex care needs it may take a little longer to match the right carer. Call us on 01753 306187 and we will give you a realistic timeline for your specific situation.
Can I choose the live-in carer?
Yes — this is central to everything we do. You meet potential carers before any care begins and have the final say on who moves into your loved one’s home. If the match is not right, we will find someone better suited.
Is live-in care suitable for someone living with dementia?
Yes. Consistent routines, familiar surroundings and a trusted face are among the most effective ways to support someone living with dementia in Slough. Live-in care can provide calm, one-to-one support at home.
