What do live-in caregivers do?
Live-in caregivers provide compassionate, around-the-clock support in the comfort of the client’s home. Their responsibilities include:
24-hour presence to ensure safety and peace of mind- Companionship and emotional support, including mental stimulation and meaningful interaction
- Supervision for clients with memory impairment, helping maintain a safe environment
- Assistance with personal hygiene, such as bathing, grooming, and dressing

- Light housekeeping, including laundry, vacuuming, changing linens, and cleaning bathrooms/kitchens
- Monitoring health changes, and contacting family or medical professionals when needed
- Building strong relationships, becoming part of the YOUR FAMILY through quality time and personalized care
What are the basic requirements to have a live-in caregiver in your home?
To ensure a successful live-in arrangement, the following conditions must be met:
- A private bedroom and bed must be provided for the caregiver.
- The client’s care needs must not exceed 14 hours per day, allowing the caregiver time for sleep and breaks.
- An additional food charge of $60 per week applies.
- If the client requires frequent nighttime assistance, we recommend adding an hourly overnight aide to support the live-in caregiver.
The Cost Savings
Live-in Care is a great option for family members who need over 8 hours of care a day, or for families considering the nursing home or assisted living route. Financially, Live-in Care is much more affordable than alternative care options.

Wonderful care. I really felt like the [staff] cared about my family and my grandfather. I could not ask for a better agency to help my family and I through the death and end of life care for him. We intend to come to them again with other family members when the time comes.
