Becoming a part of the Access Care family

At Access Care, we love welcoming new team members into our family—and it’s always fascinating to hear how people discover the world of Live-in Care for the first time. Recently, we welcomed new members to our lovely Live-in Care team, and it reminded us just how unique and special the work we do really is.

When they first came across our Live-in Care agency, they admitted they weren't entirely sure what Live-in Care actually was! Like many people, they were familiar with care homes, day centres, and hourly home care services—but the concept of a private carer living with someone in their own home was brand new to them. After doing some research and learning about Access Care, it all clicked. They immediately recognised what a brilliant option Live-in Care is for those who want to stay in the comfort and familiarity of their own home while receiving the full-time support they need.

At Access Care, we don’t just match clients with any private carer—we provide choice. Every one of our wonderful Live-in Care workers is professionally trained (with refresher training every two years), and clients are presented with detailed profiles before making a decision. These profiles include not only qualifications and experience with medical conditions or equipment, but also personal interests, hobbies, and of course, a friendly photo. It’s all about creating a strong, trusted connection—because when someone is living with you in your home, that connection matters.

Helping to create these profiles is a key part of our recruitment process, and it’s something we find incredibly rewarding. Knowing that we play a part in helping someone find the perfect private carer—someone they feel safe and happy with—is what makes our work so meaningful.

Even as we were reflecting on this, our new client consultant, Mariska, was arranging urgent support for a lovely lady returning home from hospital. Within hours, she had one of our compassionate live-in carers ready to arrive at the client’s home the next day. It’s moments like these that remind us of the real impact of our work.

At Access Care, we’re proud to provide more than just home care—we offer peace of mind, independence, and a friendly face when it’s needed most. Whether it’s your first time hearing about Live-in Care, or you’re already part of the Access Care community, we’re here to help.
