The people, planning and support behind Live-in Care
Care built around the individual
No two people are the same, which is why our Live‑in Care service is always tailored to each client. We take the time to get to know each client as an individual, and to understand their routines, preferences, health needs, and what matters most to them day to day.
This careful, considered approach allows us to:
- Match clients with the most suitable Live‑in Caregivers
- Create routines that feel natural, familiar, and respectful
- Support independence while providing reassurance and consistency
- Adapt care seamlessly as needs change over time
Our aim is simple: to help people live well at home, with dignity, comfort, and choice.
Supporting our Live‑in Caregivers
Live‑in Care relies on experienced, skilled, dedicated Live‑in Caregivers who play a vital role in supporting clients every day. At Dovida, we know that Caregivers deliver their best care when they feel prepared, supported, and valued.
Our national Live-in Care team plays a central role in supporting Live‑in Caregivers and ensuring the foundations of care are strong. Working closely with local Dovida offices, the national Live-in Care team manages the essential elements of hiring, allowing local care teams to focus on the client.
This includes:
- Ensuring availability, suitability, and continuity of Live-in Caregivers
- Carrying out all necessary checks, documentation, and governance standards
- Overseeing all training coordination, ensuring Live‑in Caregivers are well prepared for their roles
- Overseeing all logistical and administration matters
By centralising these complex and time‑critical activities, the national Live-in Care team provides structure, clarity, and consistency across Live‑in Care.

Local teams who know and care
Alongside our national Live-in Care team, local Dovida offices remain at the heart of Live‑in Care delivery.
These teams know their clients, their Caregivers, and their communities, and they build strong, trusted relationships over time.
Local teams provide:
- Live-in Caregiver selection based on client needs
- Regular check‑ins and personalised, relationship‑based support
- A familiar, local point of contact for clients and families
- Responsive action when care needs change
- Ongoing quality oversight to ensure care remains right for the individual
This local presence gives families reassurance that support is always close by and that care is never managed at a distance.
A connected approach to care
The strength of Dovida’s Live‑in Care model lies in teamwork. Our national Live-in Care team and local office teams work closely together, ensuring care is joined‑up, responsive, and reliable.
For clients, this means:
- Care that feels calm and consistent
- Long-term continuity of care
- Confidence that nothing is left to chance
For families, it means reassurance, transparency, and trust.
For Live‑in Caregivers, it means:
- Clear, well‑organised placements, with travel and administration planned in advance
- Confidence that training, compliance requirements, and documentation are in place before each placement
- Ongoing support from both a central team and a local office who understand their role and situation
- Stability, clarity, and support when care needs or circumstances change

Peace of mind for families
We understand that choosing Live‑in Care from some providers can be complicated. Our role is to reduce worry, not add to it.
Families can be confident that:
- Care is thoughtfully planned and well supported
- Live‑in Caregivers are fully supported in their roles
- Changes are managed proactively, not reactively
From the very first conversation and throughout the care journey, our focus remains the same: doing the right thing for the person receiving care.
Care that goes beyond the home
Live‑in Care is about enabling people to live life on their terms. By combining personalised care, dedicated Caregiver support, expert coordination, and strong local relationships, Dovida delivers care that is dependable, compassionate, and built to last.
Because outstanding care isn’t just about being there, it’s about being prepared, supported, and committed every step of the way.
