With the Live-In plan, we pair you with a dedicated in-home healthcare provider who remains in your home for a full 24-hour shift, providing a steady, familiar presence rather than a rotating cast of unfamiliar faces. This model works especially well for clients coming home from a hospital stay or rehab facility, where a coordinated transition back into daily life depends on consistency, not just coverage. Because the arrangement calls for overnight rest, your caregiver will need a private room to sleep in, staying fresh and alert to support you fully each day. We build Live-In coverage around two caregivers per week — one covering four consecutive days, the other three — so you always know who’s coming through the door.
- Pros: Unmatched continuity of care at a lower price point. With only two caregivers in rotation, you and your family build genuine, trusted relationships with each one — the kind of familiarity that matters most for clients managing memory-related conditions. This plan also runs 30-40% more affordably than our other care options.
- Cons: Caregivers do need overnight sleep to stay sharp for the day ahead. While they remain on-site and available should something come up overnight, this plan isn’t built for clients who require hands-on, wakeful care throughout the night.
Live-In Care Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve spent years in the home healthcare business, and we believe an informed client is a confident one. Below are the questions families ask us most as they weigh their options.
Is Live-In care a good fit for dementia or Alzheimer’s care?
Often, yes. Clients navigating dementia or Alzheimer’s tend to do best with a small, consistent care team rather than frequent new faces — which is exactly what the Live-In model is designed around. Two familiar caregivers, rather than a revolving door of staff, can ease confusion and build the kind of trust that makes daily routines feel safe again.
Where do your caregivers come from?
Our caregivers come from a range of backgrounds, united by a shared standard of care. Every CarenetLA caregiver:
- Brings a minimum of one year of hands-on experience (many bring several)
- Has cleared a thorough initial screening and background check before ever meeting a client
- Has completed company orientation and has ongoing access to optional training through CarenetLA University, guided by our gerontology-certified registered nurse
How do I know I’ll like my caregiver?
Our vetting process is thorough enough that we usually know which caregiver will suit your needs and personality before we even make the introduction. Still, the final decision is always yours — you’re welcome to meet with several caregivers before choosing. You’re never locked in with anyone. If you’d like to make a change at any point, we’ll work with you to find the right fit, because our job is your peace of mind, not just placement.
Why do I pay your company and not the caregiver directly?
Paying through CarenetLA keeps the relationship where it belongs — focused entirely on your care, not on payroll logistics. We handle the vetting and background checks before anyone steps into your home, along with insurance, bonding, workers’ compensation, and employee benefits. That structure gives our caregivers the stability to focus fully on you, and gives you one point of contact for anything that comes up.
