Choose live-in care for the ones you love
Continuity, security, and peace of mind are so important to those in need of care and support.
At Dovida Cork North, staff know that most people in need of care would prefer to live in their own homes, close to their local communities, instead of going to a nursing home or assisted living facility.
Some people may feel that they have no choice but to enter such a facility for a variety of reasons. However, there is another option: live-in care with Dovida Cork North.
With live-in care, a caregiver lives with their client, providing invaluable reassurance, continuity of care, and highly flexible support, empowering the individual to stay independent in their own home.
Many older adults need some level of care and assistance with various activities in their daily lives. Dovida Cork North’s live-in care plans help them to remain at home safely and securely, bringing peace of mind to both clients and their families.
Care plans are built upon Dovida’s person-centred care model: the Circle of Care; a philosophy that places clients at the centre of a holistic support system that connects families, skilled caregivers, and support teams with public health nurses, GPs, and physios.
Like all Dovida’s care plans, live-in care plans are designed to support, uplift, and empower the individuals they serve. The service’s primary caregiver resides with the client and is on active duty for seven hours a day, six days a week. Cover is provided by the local office for the seventh day, the caregiver’s day off. They provide quality home care assistance to one or two people living in the same house as and when it is needed.
“Dovida has been most helpful and attentive in providing live-in care for my brother. Their caregivers are all I could ask for: fully trained, friendly, and enthusiastic for his welfare,” said one client’s family member.
Dovida takes great care to ensure that a client’s interests are matched to those of the caregivers who are recruited both locally and through international partners. Caregivers undergo a thorough screening process, have excellent references, and participate in a comprehensive training programme before they start work with the clients. Live-in caregivers can also access 24 hour support from their local office.
Dovida offers a free, no-obligation, in-home care consultation with you and your loved ones to create a personalised live-in care plan that fits your needs and preferences.
