What is Daily Care?

Daily care is also known as ‘live-out care’.

Depending on the level of care required, daily care may be provided daily between agreed hours by a Companion Carer or Carer who lives in the vicinity of the client and aims to encourage independent living.

Daily care is different from live-in care or hourly care also known as (domiciliary care).

Some benefits of daily care may include:

  • Access to a small team of dedicated carers that rotate their attendance

  • Greater stability and continuity of care

  • One carer attends to the client each day

  • Keeping control of care directly with their carers via our portal and easily coordinating day-to-day requirements

  • Peace of mind for relatives who may live with their loved ones and care for them during the night, or part-time for example, but are unable to be in attendance full-time due to other commitments.

  • Daily care may be a more cost-effective option depending on the level of care needed.

Much like live-in care, this option may allow clients to stay at home in familiar surroundings with a bespoke level of one-to-one support. As with all frequency of care, it is broken down into the following 3 groups

  • Companionship care

  • Personal care

  • Enhanced care
