Live-In Care in Gosport
Yes, NeeryVille Care provides live-in care in Gosport so that the person you love keeps the same address, the same window and the same neighbours. A DBS-checked carer moves into the home and fits around the household, from the first kettle to the last tablet, and a live in carer who stays long enough notices small shifts in appetite, mood or balance before anyone else does. One phone call is enough to find out whether this suits your family.
Does a discharge from the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham feel close? The trust that runs it, Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust, also runs the urgent treatment centre at Gosport War Memorial Hospital in Bury Road. Tell us the day the ward gives you, and the bed can be made and the house warmed before your relative is brought back.
With a harbour on one side, a ferry to cross and no railway behind the town since 1953, even a simple outing can exhaust someone who lives alone in Gosport. Call 0208 129 5854 and we will talk through what a live-in carer could take off their shoulders, with no obligation.

Live-In Care at Home in Gosport: the Harbour Front, Stokes Bay and Alverstoke
Think of a man of eighty-six who put in his working years at the Royal Clarence Victualling Yard until it closed in 1992. After a slow breakfast his carer walks him along the harbour front to the Millennium Timespace sundial, installed in 2000, where he points across the water and describes the day the gates shut for good. The Gosport Ferry slides towards Portsmouth Harbour as they talk, and he is back for a hot lunch with his colour restored.
If your relative has a favourite stretch of waterfront, mention it when you ring and it goes into the plan.
A good afternoon like that depends on the routine behind it, so here is how a live-in carer looks after the day, from the first cup of tea to the last glass of water by the bed.
Unhurried Mornings
The day starts at your relative’s pace. Help with washing, dressing and a proper breakfast is given without a rota breathing down anyone’s neck, in the bathroom and kitchen they already know.
Fresh Air, Familiar Streets
When the weather is kind, the carer can go with your relative to the seafront at Stokes Bay, around the gardens of Alverstoke Crescent or beside Forton Lake, lending an arm on the kerbs and finding a seat at the right moment.
Medicines and Appointments
Tablets are given on time and written down. Ahead of a clinic visit the carer reads the appointment letter, plans the route, goes into the room if wanted and reports what was said when you are home again.
Home Cooking
Fish pie, a Sunday joint or the cake your relative has always baked can be made in their own kitchen. The carer follows any dietary advice and the two of them write the shopping list together.
Company, Not Just Care
Some afternoons are for a jigsaw, the radio or looking through old photographs. If your relative would like to attend the monthly service in the Haslar chapel or a service at St Mary’s in Alverstoke, the carer goes too.
Safe in Every Room
Loose rugs, poor lighting on the landing and a sticking back door are noticed and mentioned before anyone trips. At night the carer is in the house, so a call for help is answered at once.

Why Gosport Families Choose NeeryVille Care
Before writing this page we looked for live-in care in Gosport the way a worried relative would. One franchise page covering Fareham and Gosport shows no price and names neither a hospital nor a council. Another national page tucks its cost into a list of questions near the bottom and again names no local hospital, while a directory lists providers by the week with little to say about what that figure includes. Our page sets out the hospital, the council that runs adult social care, a dementia helpline and one daily price, and the live-in carer who comes works for NeeryVille directly. Here is why Gosport families choose us.
Someone they recognise
With time the carer learns which chair your relative prefers, how they take their tea and what settles them when the evening turns restless. A stranger becomes a familiar person at the end of the hallway.
Our same-carer approach rests on exactly that. For anybody with memory loss, one face at breakfast and again at bedtime is worth more than any rota of different visitors.
Two weeks to be sure
If the arrangement does not feel right, you may end it within the first 14 days without a fee and without giving notice.
This is our 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee, and it gives a Gosport family room to judge for themselves how a live-in carer fits into their relative’s routine.
Our own employees
NeeryVille Care Ltd is registered with the Care Quality Commission, and the carers who live in are our employees, trained and backed up by us rather than picked from a list of freelancers. You can check our registration on the CQC website.
Clinical oversight
Each placement runs under a clinical governance framework drawn up with experienced clinicians, so care for dementia, Parkinson’s disease or recovery after a stroke stays steady from one week to the next.
Ready in days
Wards often give families only a day or two of notice. If your relative is coming home from the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham, a carer is usually in the house a day or two after we first speak, so 24 hour care in Gosport is already running when the front door opens. Give us the date and we will plan backwards from it.
A Registered Manager at the helm
Daniel Johnson, our Registered Care Manager, has twelve years in care and a particular interest in dementia, and he personally oversees every placement. Phone us and you will reach him or a colleague who knows the work well.

Respite Care in Gosport: When Coping Is No Longer Enough
Few families can say on which day managing turned into struggling. More often it creeps up: the nights are as demanding as the days, and yet the person you love still wants, very clearly, to stay in their own home.
Picture a woman of eighty-three in a flat off the Stoke Road. She catches her foot on the shingle at Stokes Bay, breaks her hip and spends two weeks in the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham. On the day she is told she may leave, there is no one to light the heating or help her up the stairs. With a carer already living in the flat, the lamps would already be lit and the kettle hot. If a scene like that worries you, ring us first.
When we first talk we ask about her habits, her friends and her favourite programmes, and the plan is written from what she tells us.
Or perhaps you are the one who has carried everything alone for months, and a whole night’s sleep is a distant memory. Arranging respite care in Gosport brings a carer into the house for a short stay, whether that is days or weeks, so you can recover your strength. Ring us and we will find dates that suit.
Conditions Our Carers Support in Gosport
Our live-in carers in Gosport 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 Alverstoke, Brockhurst, Rowner or Hardway.
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.
Two People, One Front Door: Couples in Gosport
Imagine a couple in one of the retirement flats created from the old Haslar hospital buildings between 2018 and 2020. He has Parkinson’s disease, she is beginning to lose her way in the day, and each tells the other that everything is fine. Being separated into two different homes is the one outcome they dread.
One carer living in can look after both of them, helping with morning medication and the evening meal and accompanying either person to a clinic. Speak to us and we will show you what a placement for two looks like.

Why Gosport Families Choose Live-In Care at Home Instead of a Care Home
If your relative has spent decades in Gosport, live-in care lets them stay beside the harbour, the shops and the neighbours they know.
The town’s story is written in brick and stone: fortifications begun in 1678, the Royal Naval Hospital at Haslar opened in 1753 and the Victualling Yard that stood open until 1992. People who grew up around those places carry them in their heads, and many would rather keep that picture close than start again in a strange building.
At home they sleep in their own bed, eat from their own crockery and follow the routine they have kept for years. One carer lives in and learns every small habit, so the face at breakfast is the face at bedtime, and a husband and wife can stay together with one carer helping them both.
Steps, buses and a busy ferry terminal can wear out an older person quickly, and after a stay at the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham the same carer can be waiting at home to help with the stairs, the shopping and a short walk to get strength back.
To talk through what might suit your family, ring us on 0208 129 5854. Ask whatever you like, with no obligation.
What a Day of Live-In Care in Gosport Costs: £190
We would rather you saw the price at the outset.
Live-in care with NeeryVille in Gosport starts from £190 per day, fully inclusive. No hidden fees, no extra charges.
After your free assessment the exact amount is put in writing, before you commit to anything.
What the Daily Rate Includes
A typical week in Gosport might include a stroll to the Millennium Footbridge at Forton Lake, a morning looking at Holland 1 and HMS Alliance at the Royal Navy Submarine Museum on Haslar Road, and a crossing on the Gosport Ferry. The daily rate pays for a carer who stays through the night, help with washing and dressing, home-cooked meals, medication given and logged, a watchful eye for trip hazards and a companion at appointments.
A few situations are costed after a chat, among them dementia care at home, live-in care for a couple and recovery after an operation. Describe yours and we will answer plainly.
Paying for Care at Home in Gosport
In Hampshire, the council’s financial assessment is carried out under the Care Act 2014, and a person who chooses not to share their finances may be asked to pay the full cost of the services involved. It is a rule worth knowing about. NHS Continuing Healthcare is a different route altogether, paid for by the NHS where a person’s health needs are high enough.
Hampshire County Council runs adult social care for Gosport, and we mention it as background only, because nobody has to start there.
The Age UK Advice Line (0800 678 1602, free, 8am to 7pm every day) can explain benefits and hospital discharge, and the Alzheimer’s Society in Hampshire, Isle of Wight and Portsmouth gives dementia support to families on 0333 150 3456.
A carer can often begin before every funding question has been answered, so please do not hold back.
Not sure where to start?

Getting Going in Gosport:
The first call is usually the hardest bit, and after it there are only four short stages before a carer is settling in.
01
Pick up the phone
Nothing needs preparing in advance.
Ring 0208 129 5854 and Daniel Johnson or one of his colleagues will pick up.
Describe what has been happening and we will talk through what could be done, with no forms and no pressure.
Calls like these are everyday work for us, so nothing you tell us will surprise anyone.
03
Their Gosport
We like to learn which corner of Gosport is theirs. It might be the Crescent gardens at Alverstoke, open all year, a pew in St Mary’s, the church rebuilt between 1863 and 1885, a bench at the harbour front below the Seaward and Harbour Towers of 1963, or the exhibits in the old Grammar School on the High Street that became Gosport Museum and Art Gallery in 2022.
Every memory goes into the care plan so your carer can bring it up at just the right moment. Call when the time feels right.
Finding the right carer
Experience, health needs and temperament all count, and we then propose the carer we believe will blend into your household best.
Inside the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee you have a fortnight to judge whether the match works.
02
04
Moving in
A carer typically arrives a day or two after we first meet, and sooner where the hospital has already fixed a date.
If your relative is still an inpatient at the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham, we time the journey home to match the ward’s plans.
You keep one point of contact from the first call until the placement has settled.
Call today and a carer could be unpacking in your relative’s spare room within days. Should the hospital have set a discharge date, say so and we will work back from it.
Our Registered Care Manager carries out the free assessment himself and phones to see how things are once the carer has settled. Live-in care is all we do, so whoever answers will know the subject.

What Gosport Families Ask Us About Live-In Care
How much does live-in care in Gosport cost?
Live-in care in Gosport is £190 per day, fully inclusive. After the free assessment we put that figure in writing, so nothing changes later.
How quickly can live-in care start in Gosport?
Often a carer is in the house a day or two after we speak, even if you ring from a hospital corridor. It all starts with one call.
Do you provide live-in care for people with dementia?
Yes. For many people with dementia, one regular carer in rooms they know is calmer than a stream of different faces. The Alzheimer’s Society in Hampshire, Isle of Wight and Portsmouth supports families, and your GP is the person to talk to about a memory assessment.
Is live-in care better than a care home?
Only you and your family can judge that. At home your relative keeps their own armchair, their own view and the streets they know, and spouses need not be parted. We set out the pros and cons plainly so you can choose.
What happens if my carer is ill or on holiday?
Your relative is never left alone: when the regular carer is unwell or away, a cover carer steps in.
Is NeeryVille Care regulated by the CQC?
Yes. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission, and our CQC provider page shows the details.
Which areas of Gosport do you cover?
We cover the whole of Gosport, in the PO12 and PO13 postcode districts, from Alverstoke, Stokes Bay and Brockhurst to Forton, Holbrook, Hardway and Rowner, as well as Lee-on-the-Solent.
Do you offer respite care in Gosport?
Yes. Anyone who has been caring for a spouse or parent day and night can hand over to a live-in carer for a short spell of days or weeks, and respite care in Gosport gives you time to rest.
Can you support a hospital discharge?
Yes. Ahead of your relative’s return from the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham or any other hospital, the carer can settle in, so the bed is made and the first day mapped out.
What is the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee?
You can end the arrangement at any point in the first 14 days, with no notice period and no fee, if it is not working.
How do I pay, and can I get funding?
Payment is by Bank Transfer or Direct Debit only. Depending on circumstances, NHS Continuing Healthcare or an assessment by Hampshire County Council may help, and the Age UK Advice Line can go through benefits.
Is a visit to Gosport Museum and Art Gallery possible with a live-in carer?
The museum opened in November 2022 in the former Gosport Grammar School building on the High Street. A carer can plan the walk or bus ride, offer an arm where there are steps and sit with your relative over a cup of tea afterwards. Check the museum’s opening times before you set off.
Where should my father go in Gosport for a minor injury that is not an emergency?
The urgent treatment centre at Gosport War Memorial Hospital, Bury Road, PO12 3PW, is open 8am to 10pm every day, with X-ray from 8.30am to 9pm. No appointment is needed. First Bus lists routes 5, 9/9A and E2 stopping in Bury Road outside the hospital, so his carer can travel with him.
Can a carer take my husband across to Portsmouth on the Gosport Ferry?
The ferry runs between Gosport and Portsmouth Harbour railway station, so a crossing can be joined to a train journey for a family visit. Access for a frame or wheelchair is worth checking with the ferry company beforehand, and your husband’s carer will plan the day around what he can comfortably manage.
