Your questions

Before you decide.

Some helpful starting points when exploring care at home.

How do I know which type of care is right?

Start with a conversation about daily life, the tasks that are becoming harder and the support already in place. An assessment helps identify suitable options. Request a free care assessment.

Can support change over time?

Tell the team if needs or circumstances change. Your plan and costs can then be reviewed, with any changes discussed before new arrangements are agreed.

Will I see familiar carers?

We aim to keep care teams small and consistent. Ask the team how regular visits, holidays and unexpected absences will be covered for your particular arrangement.

Is live-in care the same as 24-hour waking care?

No. A live-in carer needs rest and breaks. If someone needs active support throughout the day and night, the staffing and cover must be assessed and planned accordingly.

How much does home care cost?

Hourly care starts from £23 per hour and live-in care from £1,100 per week. Your final quotation depends on assessed needs, timings and the arrangements agreed. See our costs and funding guide.

Do you cover my area?

House of Care serves areas across Merseyside, Cheshire and London. Contact the team with the postcode where care is needed to check current availability.

Can you help with catheter care?

Please discuss the exact support required with our team. Suitability, staff competence and any clinical oversight must be confirmed during assessment. Do not assume that all catheter-related procedures are included.

Not sure where to start?

You do not need to have everything worked out. Talk to our team about the support you are looking for.
