Cost and Funding Options

Able Community Care has been providing Live-in Care services since 1980. We have helped many clients and families by carefully explaining our 24-hour Live-In Care cost structures.

We present the day-to-day options we can provide and guide them through any financial entitlements that may be available to help pay for their care. We help by directing people to other expert financial professionals (statutory, voluntary, and independent). These professionals will work with our clients to prepare any relevant application forms or documentation required by possible funding sources.

This will help towards Live-in Carer costs and give you peace of mind that your loved one will receive domiciliary care in their own home. We believe this is a true alternative to moving into a residential care setting.

Compare our Costs:-

Quality home care support at a sensible cost.

With hourly care at £32.14 (UK Home Care Association April 2025) and night support incurring additional costs, live-in care presents a sensible alternative.

Rather than accumulating mounting hourly fees, live-in care offers comprehensive support throughout the day and night and is financially prudent.

This approach ensures consistent, quality care whilst enabling your loved one to remain comfortably at home—a practical solution.

These hourly rates may be even higher when evenings, weekends, and Bank Holidays are taken into consideration.

Our Live-In Care Includes:-

Carers weekly wage, agency fee +vat, travel, food and Bank Holiday wage allowance.

Helpful care funding sources:

Attendance Allowance
NHS Continuing Care information
SOLLA (Society of Later Life Advisers)
Immediate Care Plan (insurance product purchased at the time of need)

We will always assist with funding information whenever possible.
