What Is Live-In Care?
Live-in care in Somerset offers a more personal alternative to domiciliary care or care home roles. As a live-in carer, you stay in your client’s home for 2 to 4 weeks, providing support, companionship and care. You’ll have your own private bedroom, with all meals provided.
Claire, one of our experienced live-in carers, explains: “The beauty of this arrangement is that I don’t just work in your home; I live in it. No rent or housekeeping worries, just a dedicated focus on your well-being. I share my days with a remarkable 90-year-old lady celebrating life. I do the housekeeping and cook delicious food. The Dorset Apple Cake is her favourite treat! After three weeks of devoted service, I take one week off, whether for a rejuvenating holiday or exploring the charming towns across the UK.”
Your Role as a Live-In Carer
You’ll provide high-quality care to clients in their Somerset homes, helping improve their quality of life through personalised support and companionship.
Your daily duties include:
- Personal care – washing, dressing, toileting, maintaining dignity
- Medication administration – safely managing prescriptions and accurate MAR charts
- Meal planning and cooking – preparing nutritious food
- Companionship – meaningful conversations, activities, accompanying to appointments
- Light housekeeping – keeping the home clean and safe
- Shopping and errands – prescriptions, weekly shopping
- Monitoring and communicating – observing health changes and liaising with families
You may support someone living with dementia, recovering from a stroke, managing Parkinson’s disease, or receiving palliative care.
You’ll also become a trusted companion. The small details matter – how someone takes their tea, their favourite music, or simply being a reassuring presence.
