Couple care at home
Are you and your loved one needing assistance to continue living independently? Country Cousins can match a carer, or multiple carers, for elderly couples living in the same home and provide compassionate care in the comfort and safety of home.
Home care for couples can be a positive solution in various different circumstances. Whether live-in care is needed just to help you with daily tasks to continue living the life you love or whether more advanced care is needed for support with specialist conditions such as Alzheimer’s, we can match you with the perfect carer to help you or your loved ones.
Experienced and Trusted
More cost effective than a care home
Couple care at home provides you with a service that works for you at a cheaper rate in comparison to moving into residential home. Instead of the hefty cost of two separate rooms in a care home, a single carer, or more if needed, can be matched specifically to your needs to offer support in the comfort of home.
How much does care for couples cost?
The price of a care home can quickly add up with individuals paying upwards of £4,000 per month, with specialist care costing even more. Alongside the price, when moving to a care home, there is also a significant change to daily routines. However, Country Cousins’ experienced carers provide a better, cost-effective solution.
Hiring a live-in carer offers better value for providing assistance and care for couples. The costs for our care services will vary depending on the type and level of support needed, but with live-in care for couples starting from £924 per week you can be assured that it offers a cheaper alternative to residential care provision.
