What is Live-in Care?
Live-in care provides continuous, full-time support for an individual at home, delivered by a dedicated carer who lives in your home and adapts to the person's own routine. Care covers personal hygiene, mobility, meals, medication, and companionship, with planned relief cover arranged when the primary carer takes a break, ensuring support never lapses.
According to Surrey research and Surrey County Council, about 18.7% of Surrey’s population is aged 65 and over, and this is expected to rise to 25.4% by 2041 as people live longer in the county. As Surrey’s older population grows, live-in care is becoming increasingly relevant because it helps more older adults stay in their own homes with consistent full-time support rather than moving into residential care.

Frequently Asked Questions About Live-in Care Surrey
What Is Live-in Care and How Does It Work in Surrey?>
Live-in care places a dedicated, fully trained carer inside the home 24 hours a day, providing continuous personal care, medication management, mobility support, and companionship without requiring a move into a residential setting. The carer lives in the home full-time and follows a personalised care plan built around the individual's routine. HTR Care matches every client in Surrey with a consistent carer based on personality, skills, and specific care needs.
How Much Does Live-in Care Cost in Surrey?>
Live-in care in Surrey costs between £1,200 and £1,600 per week with HTR Care, depending on the level of support and complexity of care needs. The South East's higher carer wage rates place Surrey within the upper cost band compared to other UK regions. HTR Care provides a full cost breakdown during the initial assessment, with no hidden fees.
Why Is Live-in Care Becoming More Important in Surrey?>
Live-in care is becoming more important in Surrey as the county's older population grows rapidly. One in every five Surrey residents is aged 65 and over, a group that grew by 12.4% between 2014 and 2024, and this proportion is projected to exceed 25% by 2041. Live-in care gives this growing population the option to remain at home with consistent, full-time support.
Does Live-in Care Work for People With Dementia in Surrey?>
Live-in dementia care in Surrey is one of the most effective ways to support a person living with dementia, as remaining in a familiar home environment directly reduces disorientation and anxiety. A consistent live-in carer builds a trusted relationship over time, which residential care with rotating staff cannot replicate. HTR Care's dementia live-in care covers structured daily routines, personal care, medication management, and cognitive engagement.
How Quickly Does Live-in Care Start in Surrey?>
Live-in care in Surrey starts within 24 to 48 hours of the first enquiry with HTR Care. Emergency placements and post-hospital discharge packages are assessed on the same day, where possible. A care coordinator contacts you directly to arrange an assessment and confirm your start date.
Can I Choose My Own Live-in Carer in Surrey?>
Yes, HTR Care matches every client in Surrey with a dedicated live-in carer based on routine, preferences, personality, and specific care needs. You receive a full profile of your matched carer before care begins. If the match does not feel right after the placement starts, HTR Care arranges a replacement without delay.
