Live-in Care for Couples
Compassionate care for your parents so they can enjoy quality time living together at home

Mumby’s Outstanding Live in Care for Couples
Elderly Couples Care
Often care for elderly couples is required when one partner in the couple needs more long-term care and support than the other can provide. This may be due to one partner:
- experiencing the onset of a debilitating illness such as Dementia or Parkinson’s disease
- becoming too frail to continue to care for the other safely or adequately
- requiring stroke or cancer care.
It is likely that you have explored the option of care homes. However, very few care homes offer double bedroom accommodation for couples, especially if one partner has dementia, and the thought of your parents having to separate is inconceivable for all of you.
Mumby’s outstanding live-in care for couples allows your elderly parents to receive the level of care they both need whilst staying together in the comfort and familiarity of their home. Additionally, live in care costs for couples are much more affordable than you might think.
Your parents can benefit from the care and support they need whilst maintaining their independence and continuing their daily lives. This is a reassuring option for all members of the family.

Cost of Couples Live-in Care
Live-in care is a cost-effective solution for couples.
Your cost is for both parents to be personally supported around the clock by a professionally trained carer. It is a similar price of care for one parent in a nursing home which is then doubled for both parents in 2 separate rooms.
