Live-In Care in Norfolk
Providing Live-In Care For Norfolk
VersaCare provides a 24-hour live-in care service across Norfolk for those who want to remain in their own home but need a bit of extra support. Our clients include elderly people who don’t want to move into residential care, people with disabilities, those suffering from dementia and other memory-related illnesses as well as recovery and palliative care.
The Service We Offer
We offer a range of live-in care services designed to give you the care you need while continuing to live in your own home.
Elderly live-in care:
As we get older we need a bit more support. We provide live-in care for elderly people across Norfolk so they can continue to live in their own home rather than move into traditional residential care. For residents in rural areas or market towns like Wymondham or Holt, having a live-in carer means staying connected to the community you know and love, while receiving compassionate, tailored support.
Care for people with disabilities:
Our carers are expertly trained to care for people with a range of disabilities, learning disabilities, neural divergence and challenging behaviour. Live-in care helps them successfully live on their own or remain within the family home while providing better outcomes than residential care. In areas such as Thetford or Dereham, where specialist services may be further afield, our carers can assist with accessing appointments, therapies, or educational activities, ensuring seamless support.
Dementia care:
Our specialist live-in dementia care service is designed to provide round-the-clock support, allowing your loved one to remain in the comfort and familiarity of their own home while receiving expert, compassionate care tailored to their specific needs. Familiar surroundings are especially important in dementia care, with live-in care providing expert support that enables clients to maintain a comforting sense of place and routine.
Respite care:
We give carers and family members a well-earned break with our respite care service. Our compassionate respite care cover allows you to take a break from caring for your loved ones or when your usual carer requires a break. Whether you’re in the city of Norwich or a picturesque village like Swaffham, our respite care ensures your loved one receives the highest standard of care while you recharge.
Areas in Norfolk We Cover
We provide care across all of Norfolk, led by our area manager. So no matter if you’re in a small village like Bunwell or a city like Norwich we can support you. We provide care across the entire county but some of the specific areas we provide care are:
- Norwich
- Kings Lynn
- Downham Market
- Great Yarmouth
- Thetford
- Wymondham
- Dereham
- Diss
- Hunstanton
As a very rural county, the benefits of live-in care are even more pronounced. Whether helping you attend a doctor’s appointment in King’s Lynn, meeting friends for coffee in Fakenham, or exploring the Norfolk Broads, your carer is always there to ensure you stay connected and supported. During winter, when icy roads and chilly weather can make travelling harder, having a carer at home ensures you’re never left without support.
How We Provide Live-In Care in Norfolk
Our live-in care service starts with having a friendly, no-obligation chat with one of our office team to understand where you’re located, the care you or your loved one needs and a bit about the person being cared for. We will then review our pool of live-in carers to find a suitable candidate who not only has the expertise to meet their care needs but also matches their personality and lifestyle. While providing care is our first priority, making sure that you or your loved one also feels like they have a friend in their carer is important to us. For example, we’ve matched clients in coastal areas like Hunstanton with carers who share their love of seaside strolls or birdwatching along the Norfolk coastline.
Our Norfolk Area Manager
Our Norfolk area manager has many years of experience in providing live-in carers for people across Norfolk. Our area manager is great at getting to know our client’s needs, lifestyle and personality and then matching them with a carer. Their local knowledge ensures that clients in villages like Reepham or towns like Downham Market receive carers who understand the nuances of rural Norfolk life.
Cost Information
Live-in care brings a whole host of benefits with the main ones being being able to continue your current lifestyle and routines as well as receiving care that’s personalised to your exact needs. Both of these factors lead to improved care outcomes, wellbeing and general happiness at a far lower cost than residential care. With residential homes ranging between £825 and £1750 per week in Norfolk, live-in care is a cost-effective alternative at £895 per week and you won’t be forced to sell your home to pay for your care.
Navigating the funding and benefits you’re entitled to, whether as an elderly person looking for additional care at home or you’re looking for temporary respite care, can be tricky. Our team is on hand to help you navigate the funding that’s available to you and help you access it.
