Nottingham live-in care
Needing extra support doesn’t have to mean leaving your home and family behind. At Novus Care, we specialise in providing high-quality live-in care in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. For you, that means one-to-one care from a dedicated carer who lives with you 24/7 – and more quality time in the home you love.
Our care is highly flexible and is tailored to your individual health, social and emotional needs. As well as live-in care, we provide visiting care services, overnight care and companionship care in Nottingham. We support families, too, with respite care (temporary care) that lets family carers recharge their batteries and take well-deserved breaks.
Your peace of mind is important to us. We’re fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and employ our own team of highly skilled carers (not agency staff). They’re dedicated to their role and are trained to support people with a wide range of conditions. It’s all about giving you the care you need to feel safe, stay independent and live the life you want at home.
What will my live-in carer do?
Your live-in carer can provide as much or as little support as you need. We can pop in to offer home help for Nottingham residents who need occasional support. And, for those with complex or long-term care needs, we can provide specialist, around-the-clock care at home. The important thing is that you’re in control of the care you receive. We’ll only step in to help when you need us to.
Your tailored care plan could include:
• Help around the house, including light cleaning, cooking and washing clothes
• Popping to the shops, running errands or helping you get out and about
• Health care – help with medication and medical devices (such as stomas and catheters)
• Help with personal care, such as washing, dressing and using the toilet
• Mobility support – helping you get around safely at home and outdoors
• Complex care, for those with long-term or recurring health conditions
• Companionship – we’ll pop in for a chat or help you stay social with friends and family

Nottingham live-in care FAQs
What happens if my carer goes on holiday or falls ill?
We’ll arrange another local carer to step in straight away. They’ll cover your care until your usual carer returns. This cover is guaranteed.
What are carers allowed to help with – and what’s not allowed?
Carers can offer a wide range of help, including personal care, running errands, some health care tasks and light chores. They’re not allowed to do DIY, home improvements or tasks reserved for the district nurse (giving injections and changing dressings on open wounds).
Can my carer help with pet care?
Yes, so long as you’ve asked for this in your original care and support plan. If you need help with pet care, we’ll be sure to pair you with a carer who loves animals.
Can I choose a male or female carer?
Yes. You’re free to specify only male or only female carers if that’s your preference.
What conditions are your trainers trained to support?
All our carers go through rigorous training, and many have the specialist skills needed to care for people with specific health conditions. We’re Nottingham dementia care specialists, and we support many local clients with cancer, Down syndrome, spinal injuries and other conditions. See a full list of conditions we support.
