Common questions from Ilford families
Do we need a spare bedroom?
Yes — a private room with a bed and lockable storage. Carers also need a meal allowance and 2-hour daily break.
How long does it take to start?
Most Ilford live-in placements start within 7–10 days. Urgent cases (e.g. hospital discharge from King George Hospital) can start within 48 hours.
What if we don’t click with the carer?
We re-match within a week, no charge. Our coordinator visits in person to ensure the right fit, and we keep two backup profiles ready.
Can the carer drive?
Most of our Ilford live-in carers drive. We can specify driving requirement at the matching stage if your relative still uses their car or attends regular appointments.
