Live-In 24 Hour Home Care

What is 24-Hour Live-in Home Care?

Live-In Home Care helps individuals and couples who wish to be supported in their own home maintain their independence in familiar surroundings. Expect to select your own care support staff who best suit your needs. Clients and their families can have peace of mind with reliable live-in support delivered by experienced, discrete and qualified staff. Areas of concern can be monitored and actively mitigated including loneliness, personal hygiene, consistent medication intake, balanced nutrition and more. Clients can choose to have their family linked-in by inviting them to access care notes and staff rosters remotely via a dedicated client portal.

24-Hour Live-In Home Care is provided by a single carer over a 24-hour period with the carer sleeping over.

What is 24-Hour Active Home Care?

Frailty, chronic illness, a disability can make living alone too difficult or unsafe. Residential facility care is a viable option where it is not cost effective or where in-home staff are unavailable to provide at home care. Where care support can be provided at home, live-in care allows your loved one to remain in the comfort of his or her home and maintain as much independence as possible while ensuring care support needs are met.

24-Hour Active In-Home Care is provided by 2 or 3 carers over a 24-hour period. This category of care support is appropriate where active overnight support is required.

From our first contact, to the efficient lovelies in the office and to the wonderful carers that come to us , we have had nothing but professional , quality and caring support. The carers have been patient, encouraging and engaging with my mum . We would highly recommend TGC. Thank you TGC.

We wanted to let you know that mum has improved so much that we no longer need to monitor her, she can now take herself to the toilet overnight. We also wanted to extend a heartfelt thank you to you and your team of carers who helped us through these emotionally tough last few months.

Martyn Gilbert

Thank you to the team at The Good Companion. Their staff are so caring and easy to deal with. What could have been a very stressful situation was made so much easier to deal with because of the kindness and attention from the TGCA team. Would highly recommend this organisation.

Shannon Shelton

We have some of the best carers for my mum, they have become like friends to her and also her extended family and friends. They girls have been absolutely amazing in caring for all her needs. We are very lucky to have found this company to help us with our mothers needs.

We couldn't be happier with our carer John who goes out of his way, taking him out for a coffee, walk and general exercising at home. Dad is a quiet man but has built a good bond and enjoys Johns company on a weekly basis. Recommend this service highly and more so John. Very happy !!

Maryan Lovric

The team were easy to work with and I felt they really cared that mum was provided with the best possible care. The team of carers were lovely. Any concerns we had were quickly addressed. The carers always turned up on time and we were even able to arrange additional services at short notice.

Jenny Lower Templestow

Just got home from visiting Mum. She seems very happy with Sarah, who has managed to win her over by taking an interest in her garden. If there's one thing Mum loves it's tending to her plants, so Sarah is definitely a winner there.

Dion Glen Waverley

Hi Team, the three carers are brilliant! Mum is very happy and comfortable with all three. I know this because for the first time in a long time she is actually smiling. I attribute that all to Sarah, Ruth and Danielle and the companionship and care they provide. Your choice of carers has been spot on!

to recommend HomCare"

Client Review

We have had the pleasure of using HomCare service from the end of November until the beginning of March.

Communication was easy and efficient with excellent flexibility. John has made great recovery from his stroke so we are now looking to the future and what he may need. We would not hesitate to recommend HomCare. (Paulo Weribbee)
