Live-in Incontinence Care
Incontinence affects millions of people and is nothing to be ashamed of. Our live-in carers provide discreet, dignified continence support — maintaining comfort, hygiene, and self-esteem in the privacy of your own home.
What is live-in incontinence care?
Incontinence is incredibly common, affecting over 14 million people in the UK. It can be caused by many things — weakened pelvic floor muscles, prostate problems, neurological conditions like dementia or stroke, or simply the effects of ageing.
Many people find incontinence deeply embarrassing, which is why care at home — rather than in a shared facility — is so important. A live-in carer provides private, discreet support without the embarrassment of communal living.
Our carers are trained to manage continence needs with sensitivity and professionalism. They help with toileting routines, manage continence products, care for catheters and stomas, and maintain rigorous hygiene standards — all while preserving your loved one's dignity.
What our incontinence care includes
Toileting Routines
Establishing regular toileting schedules that help manage continence and reduce accidents — particularly important for people with dementia.
Product Management
Selecting, fitting, and changing continence pads, pull-ups, and other products. Ensuring comfort and preventing skin irritation.
Catheter & Stoma Care
Trained support with catheter bags, stoma appliances, and other medical continence devices. Monitoring for infections or complications.
Skin Care
Regular cleansing, moisturising, and monitoring to prevent incontinence-related skin damage, infections, and pressure sores.
Laundry & Hygiene
Prompt, discreet management of soiled clothing and bedding. Maintaining a fresh, clean environment at all times.
Emotional Support
Understanding and compassion around what can be a distressing condition. Reducing embarrassment and maintaining self-esteem.

"My wife recently suffered a stroke and after being in hospital for almost 2 months she has finally returned home. Without the help of Live-in Care Direct this would not have been possible. From my first contact, they were amazing and incredibly supportive."
"We had a wonderful carer called Elva care for my nan. She showed such kindness and compassion. The care provided was exceptional. Having a live-in carer meant our nan could remain living in her own home safely. I would definitely recommend Live-in Care Direct."
