Why Choose Live-In Care Over a Care Home?
Live-in care with Pentacare means personalised, continuous support for clients in the comfort of their own homes. Your loved ones can stay in familiar surroundings with flexible routines tailored to their needs, rather than having to adjust to the structure of a residential facility. Whether it’s dementia, chronic illness, or post-hospital care, Pentacare carers provide a compassionate presence. Families also see up to 15% cost savings compared to care homes and enjoy up to 20% fewer hospital readmissions, with well-being and satisfaction prioritised.
What’s Included in Pentacare’s Live-In Care Services?
Pentacare carers provide sensitive assistance with personal hygiene and grooming, helping clients maintain cleanliness and dignity. This boosts confidence and reduces the risk of infection, enabling clients to feel comfortable and supported every day. One client shared, ‘When looking to take my mum out of her nursing home and bring her back home, I spoke to and requested information from six care agencies. PentaCare stood out. From initial meetings to care assessments, I knew that the people from PentaCare were human and caring. This is endorsed 100% by my parents, who now benefit from 24-hour live-in care. It is working like a dream.
