Elderly Home Care Services
We specialise in live-in care as we feel that this gives people all the care that they need whilst staying in their own home, as well as companionship.“As far as we are concerned there is no alternative [to live in care] as
visiting carers were so inconsistent.” This lady added: “My long term
carer is like a daughter to me. She is wonderful!”
One of the elderly home care services we offer is respite care, enabling family carers to get much needed breaks:
“It is better for elderly people like my mother to be in familiar
surroundings.”

Another of the elderly home care services we offer is care for those who are in the last stages of life:
“[It meant that] someone was there all the time so that it was possible
to leave my husband when I needed to go out”

The most frequent form of elderly care service used by our clients is long term care. This can be due to frailty or mobility problems, loss of sight or declining health, memory problems, or simply because having all the help and companionship you need when you are getting on in years is such a bonus.
One couple who are having long term care from Convivium told us:
“We are relieved; someone is always around when needed”.
Our elderly home care services give clients and their relatives peace of mind:
“It gives me confidence and eases anxiety. It also gives me independence and not being a worry to my immediate family.”
