Nurse-led Live-In Care from Ocean Healthcare

At Ocean Healthcare, our live-in care is nurse-led. That means it’s planned, managed and overseen by registered nurses who bring decades of clinical experience into the home. So as your needs evolve, your care evolves with you.

Because our service is nurse-led, we can support a wide range of needs - from clinical and complex care to mental health, learning disabilities and autism. It’s a flexible, reassuring approach that helps you stay where you’re happiest: at home, in control and living life your way.

When it comes to live-in care, we understand the most important things for you or your loved one are being safe, being comfortable and being in control. That’s why Ocean Healthcare’s live-in care services are designed to provide professional, compassionate care tailored to your personal needs - all in the comfort of your own home.

Your Care, Your Way

Our approach to live-in care starts with understanding what matters most to you: 

Personalised Care Plans

We work closely with you and your family to create a care plan tailored to your specific needs and preferences. 

Your Good Day

From your favourite routines to the activities that bring you joy, we focus on making each day as comfortable and fulfilling as you want it to be. 

Your Preferences

Whether it’s meal choices, bedtime routines, or daily habits, your preferences shape how we deliver every element of your care. 

Medical Needs

Our nurse-led care ensures even complex medical requirements are met with expertise and compassion. 

Continuity and Comfort

We prioritise continuity of care, so you’ll have a familiar, trusted carer by your side. Our carers don’t wear uniforms, allowing them to seamlessly integrate into your home and routine while providing discreet, professional support. 

Training for Excellence

All our carers undergo rigorous training, both before joining and throughout their time with us. With access to our dedicated Training Center, they are equipped with the skills and knowledge needed to deliver outstanding care. 

Living Arrangements and Support

To provide live-in care, your carer will need a comfortable bedroom and access to facilities such as a bathroom and kitchen. They’ll also require regular time off to rest and recharge, ensuring they remain attentive and energised to meet your needs. 

Care That Fits Around You

At Ocean Healthcare, we believe care should fit seamlessly into your life. Whether it’s supporting your daily routine, assisting with hobbies, or simply being a companion, our carers are here to make life easier - your way. 

"Ocean Healthcare provides an outstanding experience for any family the staff are professional, compassionate, and attentive, ensuring that all needs are met promptly and efficiently. The range of services offered is comprehensive, and the care provided is top-notch, tailored to each individual’s needs. Communication with family members is excellent, and the team is always available to answer questions and provide updates. Overall, Ocean Healthcare truly excels in delivering exceptional care, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking quality healthcare services for their loved ones."

What Does It Cost?

While live-in care may seem like a premium service, it’s often more cost-effective than you’d expect - especially for couples who can share the support of one carer. At Ocean Healthcare, we offer free assessments to provide a clear understanding of what the costs will be and what’s included to help you make an informed decision. 

Learn about resources that may help with costs.

Every situation is unique, so we’ve created a Live-In Care Cost Calculator to help you understand what nurse-led live-in care might cost for you or your loved one.

Simply answer a few short questions about your needs and preferences to see an estimated weekly or monthly cost.

You’ll also be able to compare it with the cost of residential or nursing home care.
