Live-In Care in Caterham
Yes, NeeryVille Care provides live-in care in Caterham by placing one DBS-checked carer in your relative’s own home, where they learn the kettle, the favourite chair and the programme that must not be missed. The same person is there from the first cup of tea to the last tablet at night. Talking to us first costs nothing, and it is the simplest way to see whether this suits your household.
Is someone you love in East Surrey Hospital in Redhill and about to be sent home? It is run by Surrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust, the same trust that runs Caterham Dene Hospital, and it has a 24-hour accident and emergency department. Give us the discharge date when the ward names it and we will have somebody in the house for the first night.
Your relative may feel safer at home with one person nearby than in a ward or a home, and the family can stop juggling visits. Call 0208 129 5854 and we will talk it through, with no obligation.

Live-In Care at Home in Caterham: the hilltop village, the valley and the old barracks
Take a man of eighty-eight who has walked the North Downs all his life. On dry mornings his carer drives him to White Hill, where a few steps lead to the Iron Age hillfort known as the Cardinal’s Cap. He stands at the bank, names the fields below and asks the carer to photograph the view for his daughter. Then home for soup and a nap, content and ready to be talked at about football.
Has your relative a favourite spot that still makes them sit up and talk? Say so when we speak and we will build it into the week.
Good days like that depend on a steady routine, so here is how a live-in carer spends a normal day, from the morning kettle to the last tablet.
Starting the Day Gently
A carer who lives in has no bus to catch and no next client waiting. Washing, dressing and breakfast take as long as your relative needs.
Out and About on the Hills
Outings might be a slow turn round the shops in Caterham Valley, a bench in Queen’s Park or a drive up to the North Downs. The carer checks the weather, watches the pavement edges and brings your relative home before anyone gets tired.
Tablets and Clinic Visits
Every dose is given on time and written down. The carer keeps the appointment letters, goes with your relative to the clinic and tells the family afterwards what was said.
Meals in Their Own Kitchen
Lunch is whatever your relative asks for, cooked on their own hob. Egg and soldiers at teatime is perfectly acceptable.
Memories and Conversation
The Caterham and District Local History Centre is based in Caterham Valley Library and keeps old photographs and maps. A carer can go with your relative to look for the street they grew up in, or simply sit and talk through the afternoon.
Keeping the House Safe
Loose mats are taken up and stair lights switched on at dusk. If a banister wobbles or a lamp has died, the family hears about it that day.

Why Caterham Families Choose NeeryVille Care
While preparing this page we looked at live-in care in Caterham the way a worried daughter or son would. One directory counts twenty-six providers and prints weekly averages without saying what is inside them. A second page offers short trial periods but names no hospital and points to no council. A third carries a starting weekly figure in its questions and answers, yet gives a family nothing about funding. We set a daily price, the hospital, Surrey County Council and a route for dementia on one page, and our carers are our own employees. That is why Caterham families choose us.
One familiar face
Your relative’s habits become the carer’s: the tea strength, the crossword, how the pillows are plumped. There is no rota of strangers to explain everything to again.
Our same-carer approach means one person learns those habits, and for someone with dementia a recognised face at breakfast can make the whole day go better.
Two weeks to be sure
If it does not feel right, tell us in the first 14 days and the arrangement ends at once, with no fee and no notice to serve.
This is the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee, so a Caterham family can try it out before committing to anything longer.
Employed by us
NeeryVille Care Ltd is registered with the Care Quality Commission. Our carers are employed, trained and supervised by us rather than sent by an agency, and the registration on the CQC website is open for anyone to read.
Clinically led
Every placement works within a clinical governance framework written with experienced clinicians, so care for dementia, Parkinson’s disease or the weeks after a stroke is consistent and properly recorded.
Ready when you are
East Surrey Hospital may tell a family on a Thursday that a patient can leave. Once you have called us, a carer can normally be in the house within 24 to 48 hours, which means 24 hour care in Caterham can be in place before the patient transport turns up. Name the day and we will work backwards from it.
A manager who knows each placement
Daniel Johnson, our Registered Care Manager, has twelve years in care and a particular knowledge of dementia, and he oversees every placement himself. When you ring, he or a colleague answers.
Still have questions about whether NeeryVille is the right fit for your family?
Call us on
0208 129 5854.
We will listen to your situation, answer every question you have and give you the time you need to make the right decision.
We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Respite Care and 24 Hour Live-In Support in Caterham: When Caring Becomes Too Much for One Person
Few families wake up and decide the caring has become too much. It builds quietly: a husband sleeping in snatches, shopping done in a rush, and the feeling that nobody else can take a turn.
Think of a man of eighty-one who has looked after his wife since her fall in the winter. He has lost weight, and one night he falls himself and is taken to East Surrey Hospital. She is left alone in the house, and their daughter lives in Scotland. A live-in carer might have been there to see he was eating and to call for help sooner. Get in touch before it reaches that point.
When we meet them we ask how they spend a normal day, what she likes to eat and which hours are hardest, and the plan is drawn up from the answers.
Or you may be a son or daughter who has not had a free weekend for two years. Arranging respite care in Caterham means a carer moves in for a few days or a few weeks and you can finally rest. Ring us and we will find dates that suit.
Conditions Our Carers Support in Caterham
Our live-in carers in Caterham support people living with dementia, recovering from a stroke, or living with Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cancer and reduced mobility, whether they live in Caterham Valley, on the hill, in Harestone Valley or elsewhere in Tandridge.
If your loved one has a condition that is not listed, please
call us on
0208 129 5854.
Usually we can still help, and we will tell you plainly if we cannot.
If the need is mostly at night, our overnight care may suit better.
Growing Old Together: Couples in Caterham
Consider a couple who have gone to the same Sunday service at St Mary the Virgin for decades. She now needs help to get up and dress, he has trouble following conversations, and both fear being separated by a move into residential care.
A single live-in carer can look after both at once, helping her in the morning, keeping him company and walking them to the car for church, and preparing the meals they have always eaten. Phone us to hear how one placement can cover two people.

Why Caterham Families Choose Live-In Care at Home Instead of a Care Home
If your relative has lived in Caterham for decades, live-in care lets them stay on the hill or in the valley, with the same neighbours and the same view from the window.
The town grew around its barracks and its railway, and the churches and the old hilltop village are still there. Many older residents want to wake up to that landscape and not to an unfamiliar corridor.
At home your relative keeps their own bed, their own cupboards and their own timetable. One carer moves in and learns the routine, so the person who helps at breakfast is also the one who says goodnight, and a husband and wife can remain together with one carer looking after both.
A hospital stay such as one at East Surrey Hospital can leave a person worn out, and on discharge the same carer can be waiting at home to help with the stairs, with errands and with short walks.
If you want to talk through what could work for your family, call us on 0208 129 5854. You can ask us anything, with no obligation.
What Live-In Care in Caterham Costs Each Day: £190
You should not have to guess at the cost, so we state it plainly.
Live-in care with NeeryVille in Caterham starts from £190 per day, fully inclusive. No hidden fees, no extra charges.
Once we have done the free assessment you receive the exact figure in writing, before any decision is made.
What the Daily Price Covers
Picture a week with a trip on the train from Caterham station, a session at the library and Sunday lunch with the grandchildren. The daily price covers a carer living in the house, available at night when needed, who helps your relative wash and dress, cooks, gives and records medicines, keeps an eye on the stairs and goes along to appointments.
A few situations take more thought and are priced once we have talked, for example dementia care at home, live-in care for a couple and recovery after an operation. Describe the situation and you will get a straight answer.
Paying for Live-In Care in Caterham
Surrey County Council says on its own site that it can help people who need support, and the cost can depend on a financial assessment. Separately, NHS Continuing Healthcare is paid by the NHS to people whose long-term health needs meet its criteria.
The adult social care information and advice team at Surrey County Council is on 0300 200 1005, 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday. We mention it for information only, and no family needs to begin there.
Age UK Surrey runs a free information and advice line on 01483 503414, Monday to Friday 10am to 4pm, and can check benefit entitlements. For memory worries, Dementia Support East Surrey, an Alzheimer’s Society service, is on 01932 855582 for patients of GP practices in East Surrey, so ask whether your relative’s practice is covered.
A carer can often start before any funding decision is made, so there is no need to hold back.
Unsure where to start? Call 0208 129 5854 and tell us what your loved one needs.
Getting Started in Caterham:
Making the first call is the hardest part. After it, four short steps take you to a carer at home.
01
Pick up the phone
Nothing to prepare, nothing to fill in.
Call 0208 129 5854 and Daniel Johnson or one of his team will pick up.
Describe how life is at home and we will explain what could work, with no paperwork and no pressure.
Helping families start live-in care is what we do every day, and awkward conversations are part of it.
03
Learning their story
We ask what Caterham was like for your relative. It might be growing up near the barracks when the Foot Guards were in residence, watching a train come in at the terminus, or the day Caterham Bypass opened in 1939.
What they tell us goes into the care plan, and the carer brings it up at the right moment. Contact us whenever you feel ready.
Choosing the carer
We weigh experience, health needs and personality, because the carer has to suit your household.
The 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee gives you a fortnight to decide.
02
04
The first day
A carer normally arrives within a day or two of our meeting, or sooner when a discharge date is set.
If your relative is still on a ward at East Surrey Hospital, we match the carer’s arrival to the ward’s plan.
One member of our team remains your contact from the first call until things have settled.
Call today and a carer could be with your relative within a day or two. If the ward has given a date for going home, tell us and we will plan around it.
Our Registered Care Manager carries out the free assessment and rings again once the carer has settled in. Live-in care is the only thing we offer, so whoever answers your call does it every single day.

Neeryville Care - Compassionate Home Care You Can Trust
Caterham Families Ask Us About Live-In Care
How much does live-in care in Caterham cost?
Live-in care in Caterham costs £190 per day, fully inclusive, with nothing added afterwards. When the free assessment is complete you get the exact figure in writing before agreeing to anything.
How quickly can live-in care start in Caterham?
A carer can often move in a day or two after we meet, even when the call is made from a hospital corridor at East Surrey Hospital. It begins with a single phone call.
Do you provide live-in care for people with dementia?
Yes. Familiar rooms and the same carer every day give a person with dementia something steady to hold on to. Dementia Support East Surrey, an Alzheimer’s Society service for patients of GP practices in East Surrey, is on 01932 855582, and your GP can arrange a memory assessment.
Is live-in care better than a care home?
Every family has to decide that for itself. At home your relative keeps their own bed, their own kettle and the view from the window, and a couple can stay together. We go through the practicalities with you first.
What happens if my carer is ill or on holiday?
We send a replacement whenever the usual carer is unwell or away, so your relative is never left alone in the house.
Is NeeryVille Care regulated by the CQC?
Yes. NeeryVille Care Ltd is on the Care Quality Commission register, and our CQC provider page shows it.
Which areas of Caterham do you cover?
All of it: Caterham Valley, Caterham on the Hill, Harestone Valley and Queen’s Park, as well as the rest of Tandridge.
Do you offer respite care in Caterham?
Yes, we arrange respite care in Caterham. If looking after a parent or partner has worn you out, a live-in carer can step in for a weekend, a fortnight or a month.
Can you support a hospital discharge?
Yes. When your relative leaves East Surrey Hospital, the carer can be at home first, with the heating on and the first day thought through.
What is the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee?
In the first 14 days you can end the arrangement if it is not working, with no notice period and no charge.
How do I pay, and can I get funding?
We accept payment by Bank Transfer or Direct Debit only. Help may be available through NHS Continuing Healthcare or an assessment from Surrey County Council, and Age UK Surrey can talk through benefits.
Can a live-in carer help my mother trace her family at the Caterham Local History Centre?
Yes. The centre is based in Caterham Valley Library and holds census records, parish registers, maps, directories and photographs. Volunteers are on hand on the first Tuesday of the month from 2pm to 4pm and on the second and fourth Saturdays from 10am to noon, so the carer can pick a session and go along.
Could my father still visit the Cardinal’s Cap hillfort on White Hill?
It is an Iron Age hillfort, so the ground may be uneven. The carer would look at the weather and the path first, choose a day when your father is feeling strong and stay at his side for the whole outing.
What if my wife has a minor injury and we want to avoid a long journey?
Caterham Dene Hospital on Caterham on the Hill has a minor injury unit. The carer would check the opening times by phone, take her there and wait with her, and would call 999 if the injury looked serious.
