When a loved one needs more support to live safely and independently, choosing the right type of care is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. For many families in Suffolk, live-in care offers the perfect balance of personalised support, independence, and peace of mind—without the upheaval of leaving home.
At Lots of Care, our local live-in carers in Bury St Edmunds provide 24/7 one-to-one support tailored to your needs—whether for an older adult, someone living with dementia, or an adult with learning disabilities.
What is live-in care, and who is it for?
Live-in care means a fully trained carer moves into the home to offer round-the-clock support. It’s an ideal option for:
Older adults needing help with personal care or mobility
People with dementia who benefit from routine and familiarity
Adults with learning disabilities who need support with daily tasks
People recovering from surgery or illness who need temporary, intensive care
Those who want companionship and emotional support
Families seeking care without the disruption of residential facilities
Unlike care homes, local live-in care offers comfort, flexibility, and a genuine connection with one or two consistent carers.

Personal Care & Daily Support
Bathing, dressing, and grooming
Toileting and continence care
Meal preparation and medication prompts
Light housework, laundry, and errands

Why families in Bury St Edmunds choose local live-in care
Choosing live-in care allows people to stay where they feel most comfortable—at home.
Here’s why it’s becoming the preferred choice:
1:1 Attention: Care is tailored, not shared across multiple residents
Consistency: 1–2 familiar carers ensure reliable, continuous care
Independence: Your loved one maintains their routines, home, and pets
Flexibility: Live-in care plans adjust as needs change
Personal Dignity: Support delivered privately and respectfully
