Live-In Care in Great Yarmouth
Yes, NeeryVille Care provides live-in care in Great Yarmouth, with a carer who moves into your relative’s own home, whether that is in the town, Gorleston, Caister-on-Sea or Belton. One DBS-checked person stays, learns the layout of the kitchen and the rhythm of the evenings, and is at hand from morning tea until the last medicine. Speaking to us first is free, and there is nothing to sign.
Is a relative about to leave James Paget University Hospital? The hospital stands on Lowestoft Road in Gorleston-on-Sea, opened in 1982 and serves about 230,000 residents of Great Yarmouth, Lowestoft and Waveney. Tell us the date the ward gives and we will prepare a warm house and a calm first evening.
The hospital that serves the town lies out at Gorleston, and even a routine clinic can use up a day when you no longer drive. Telephone 0208 129 5854 and we will talk it through, with no obligation.

Live-In Care at Home in Great Yarmouth: Britannia Pier, the Rows and the long sea front
Picture a man of eighty-nine who spent his working summers on the Golden Mile among the amusement arcades and still hums the tunes. His carer helps him into a coat when the wind is up, walks him along Marine Parade at his own speed and stops by the Wellington Pier, opened in 1854, so he can say what he remembers of it. Back home he has soup, argues with the radio about the weather forecast and sleeps soundly.
What did your mother or father do for a living, and which sounds from the sea front can they still hear in their heads? Telephone us and say, because we plan the day around the answer.
Outings like that depend on a settled home routine, so here is what a live-in carer does from the first cup of tea to the last tablet.
An Easy Start
Nobody hustles your relative out of bed. The carer lives in, so a wash, a clean shirt or a hot drink on a raw morning from the North Sea is simply asked for.
Fresh Air by the Waterfront
The Venetian Waterways were restored with a £1.7 million Heritage Lottery Fund grant and reopened in August 2019. The carer steers a wheelchair along the paths, finds a bench and waits as long as your relative wants.
Tablets and Surgery Visits
Medicines are given on time and written down. When the hospital or surgery sends a letter, the carer plans the journey, goes in with your relative and reports back to the family.
Honest Food
Fish, a stew or a boiled egg and toast are cooked the way your relative likes, within any dietary advice. The carer shops and cooks together with them, and nobody is handed a tray.
Talk, Radio and Church
The carer will listen to the local radio, read out a few lines from the paper or take your relative to a service in St Nicholas Minster on Church Plain. Time for a chat is part of the job.
Steady on the Steps
The carer stays beside your relative on the stairs and the front step, removes slippery mats and cables, and tells the family promptly when a rail or a light needs mending.

Why Great Yarmouth Families Pick NeeryVille Care
Before drafting this page we looked for live-in care in Great Yarmouth as an anxious relative would. One national provider’s page lists a weekly starting price and a seven-question FAQ but names neither a hospital nor a council, a regional provider’s article runs to about five hundred words with no price and no FAQ, and a third has a placeholder error in its carer figures and no price. We place the hospital, the county council, the dementia service and a daily figure on one page, and the carer who comes to you is our own employee. Here is why Great Yarmouth families choose NeeryVille Care.
The same person each day
Gradually the carer learns how strong the tea should be, which bulletin must not be missed and what calms a bad night. Your relative is treated as someone with a past, not a task list.
Our same-carer approach rests on this. When a person has dementia, a familiar face every morning can take some of the fear out of the day.
Fourteen days to decide
Should it prove a poor fit in the first 14 days, you can end it straight away, with no fee and no notice to serve.
This is our 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee, so a family in Great Yarmouth can test live-in care without feeling cornered.
People we employ
NeeryVille Care Ltd is registered with the Care Quality Commission. Every carer is employed, trained and supervised by us instead of being a name from a list. You are welcome to read our registration on the CQC website.
Supported by clinicians
Each placement operates within a clinical governance framework developed with experienced clinicians, so help with dementia, Parkinson’s disease or recovery from a stroke stays steady from week to week.
Ready quickly
James Paget University Hospital may tell a family that a discharge can happen within a day or two. After we have met, a carer is usually in the house within 24 to 48 hours, which means 24 hour care in Great Yarmouth can be running before your relative is helped over the doorstep. Send us the date as soon as you hear and we will plan the first night.
Overseen by a Registered Manager
Daniel Johnson, our Registered Care Manager, has twelve years in care with specialist dementia expertise and supervises each placement in person. When you phone, you will reach him or a colleague on the care team.
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 Round-the-Clock Live-In Help in Great Yarmouth
It is hard to tell when normal ageing has become something more. Consider live-in care if your relative has begun to struggle at night as well as in the day yet is determined to stay in their own home.
Think of a man of eighty-four in a flat above a shop near the Market Place. His wife died in the spring, he has stopped bothering with proper meals, and one night he wanders out onto the pavement in his slippers. A neighbour calls his son, who lives in Norwich. A stay at James Paget University Hospital follows, and the ward asks who will be at home. A carer in the flat would have cooked every evening and noticed the first missed tablet. Ring us before the next scare.
At our first meeting we ask about his trade, his friends and the meals he misses, and the care plan is built from what he says.
Perhaps you are the daughter who drives to Gorleston every weekend and cannot recall her last day to herself. Using respite care in Great Yarmouth gives you days or weeks to recover while one carer stays with your father. Call and we will find the dates.
Conditions Our Carers Support in Great Yarmouth
Our live-in carers in Great Yarmouth support people living with dementia, recovering from a stroke, or living with Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cancer and reduced mobility, in Gorleston, Caister-on-Sea, Belton, Southtown and the rest of the borough.
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.
Side by Side: Couples in Great Yarmouth
Consider a couple in their late eighties who ran a seaside guesthouse for thirty years. She now has dementia and sometimes asks when the guests are due, while he has heart failure and tires climbing the stairs they carried trays up for decades. They have shared one bedroom for sixty years and cannot bear the idea of separate homes.
One live-in carer can help him pace his day, spend the afternoon with her, cook for both and go along to appointments. Telephone us and we will describe how a single placement could look after the two of them.

Why Great Yarmouth Families Choose Live-In Care at Home Instead of a Care Home
If your relative has lived most of their life in Great Yarmouth, live-in care means they keep their own front door and the tides, gulls and streets they know.
This is a town with a 1208 charter, a minster founded in 1101 and a wall of which eleven of the eighteen original towers still stand. To many older residents, looking at that history from a familiar window is worth far more than a room in a strange building.
At home your relative keeps their own bed, kettle and timetable. One carer moves in and learns the habits, so the face at breakfast is the face at bedtime, and a couple can stay together with one carer looking after both.
A trip to the surgery or on to James Paget University Hospital can be tiring, and after a stay there the same carer can be waiting at home to help with the stairs, errands and short walks.
To talk about what might suit your family, call us on 0208 129 5854. Ask anything you like, with no obligation.
The Daily Cost of Live-In Care in Great Yarmouth: £190
We would rather give the figure than leave you hunting for it.
Live-in care with NeeryVille in Great Yarmouth starts from £190 per day, fully inclusive. No hidden fees, no extra charges.
The exact amount is confirmed in writing after the free assessment, before you decide.
What Each Day Includes
A week in Great Yarmouth might include a morning at the Time and Tide Museum on Blackfriars Road, an hour on the Venetian Waterways and a Sunday service at St Nicholas Minster. For the daily price a carer is in the house, available at night if needed, who helps with washing and dressing, prepares full meals, gives medicines and logs them, keeps an eye on the stairs and attends appointments.
Some situations need extra planning and are priced after we talk, for example dementia care at home, live-in care for a couple and recovery after an operation. Tell us what is happening and we will give you a straight answer.
Paying for Care at Home in Great Yarmouth
Money is usually the first worry. Norfolk County Council uses a Minimum Income Guarantee, which it describes as the minimum amount of income someone is left with after paying for their care, when it works out charges for non-residential care. NHS Continuing Healthcare is different, because it is arranged and paid for by the NHS for people whose long-term health needs meet the criteria.
Norfolk County Council’s adult social care team can be reached on 0344 800 8020, a line it says is open 24 hours a day. That is for information only, and no family needs to begin there.
Age UK Norfolk runs a free, confidential advice line on 0300 500 1217, Monday to Friday, 10am to 4pm, which helps with benefit checks and forms. For memory worries, Dementia Support Norfolk and Waveney, run by the Alzheimer’s Society, is on 01603 763556, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.
A live-in carer can arrive before a funding decision, so there is no need to hold back.

Starting Out in Great Yarmouth:
The first call is the hardest. After that, four short steps place a carer in the home.
01
Dial the number
You need not prepare anything.
Ring 0208 129 5854 and Daniel Johnson or a colleague will answer.
Describe how things are at home and we will explain what we can do, without forms or pressure.
Setting up live-in care is our daily work, and awkward first calls are nothing new to us.
03
Hearing their past
We ask what Great Yarmouth means to your relative. It could be the Time and Tide Museum in the old herring smokery, the flood of 1953, or the childhood memory of Anna Sewell’s house on Church Plain.
These stories are written into the care plan and the carer raises them at the right moment. Reach out whenever you are ready.
Choosing the carer
We consider experience, health needs and temperament so that the carer suits the household.
Under the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee you have two weeks to see how it feels.
02
04
Settling in
A carer normally arrives a day or two after we meet, and sooner when the ward has set a discharge date.
If your relative is still on a ward at James Paget University Hospital, the carer’s first day is fitted around the ward’s plan.
You have one person to contact from the first call until the routine is settled.
Call now and a carer could be beside your relative in a couple of days. If a ward has offered a leaving date, give it to us and we will plan from it.
Our Registered Care Manager carries out the free assessment and calls back once the carer has settled in. We do live-in care and nothing else, so whoever answers knows it well.

Neeryville Care - Compassionate Home Care You Can Trust
Great Yarmouth Families Ask About Live-In Care
How much does live-in care in Great Yarmouth cost?
Live-in care in Great Yarmouth is £190 per day, fully inclusive, with nothing added later. The exact figure is written down after the free assessment and before you agree.
How quickly can live-in care start in Great Yarmouth?
Most carers move in within a day or two of our meeting, even if the first call is made from a bed at James Paget University Hospital. It begins with one telephone call.
Do you provide live-in care for people with dementia?
Yes. Familiar rooms and a single regular carer give a person with dementia faces and routines to trust. Dementia Support Norfolk and Waveney can be reached on 01603 763556, and a GP can start a memory assessment.
Is live-in care better than a care home?
That is for each family to judge. At home your relative keeps their own bed, their own view and one carer, and a married couple need not be parted. We talk through the practical points before you decide.
What happens if my carer is ill or on holiday?
If the regular carer is unwell or away, we send a cover carer, so your relative always has someone.
Is NeeryVille Care regulated by the CQC?
Yes. NeeryVille Care Ltd is registered with the Care Quality Commission, as our CQC provider page shows.
Which areas of Great Yarmouth do you cover?
We cover the whole town, from the Market Place and South Quay to Marine Parade, as well as Gorleston, Caister-on-Sea, Belton and Southtown.
Do you offer respite care in Great Yarmouth?
Yes, respite care in Great Yarmouth is something we arrange regularly. If looking after a husband, wife or parent has worn you down, a live-in carer can step in for a long weekend or a month.
Can you support a hospital discharge?
Yes. When your relative comes home from James Paget University Hospital, the carer can already be in the house, the heating on and the first day mapped out.
What is the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee?
In the first 14 days you can stop if it is not working, giving no notice and paying no fee.
How do I pay, and can I get funding?
We take payment by Bank Transfer or Direct Debit only. Help may come from NHS Continuing Healthcare or an assessment by Norfolk County Council, and Age UK Norfolk can run a benefits check.
Could a live-in carer take my mother out on the Venetian Waterways or to Britannia Pier?
Yes. The Venetian Waterways were laid out between 1926 and 1928, and Britannia Pier opened in 1858 and holds one of the few surviving end-of-pier theatres in England. The carer checks the weather, packs a rug and brings her home before she tires.
How would a carer get my father to James Paget University Hospital for a clinic?
The hospital is on Lowestoft Road, the A47, in Gorleston-on-Sea. The carer plans the journey in advance, takes his tablets and letter, stays with him in the department and writes down what the doctor says for the family.
Who in Norfolk can I ring about my husband’s memory problems?
Dementia Support Norfolk and Waveney, run by the Alzheimer’s Society, helps people with dementia, carers and anyone worried about memory on 01603 763556, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. The carer can sit with him while you speak.
