Live-In Care in Havant
Yes, NeeryVille Care provides live-in care in Havant, on Hayling Island and in the neighbourhoods between: one trained, DBS-checked carer lives in your relative’s home, cooks in their kitchen and learns the rhythm of the house. Their own armchair, their own radio and the view from their own front window all stay in place. If you are lying awake wondering what to do next, one phone call will show you whether this suits your family.
A discharge date can arrive with very little warning, and nobody should be driven home from Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham to an empty house with the heating off. Tell us the date the ward has given and we will plan the arrival of a carer around it.
Havant War Memorial Hospital closed in 2011, the main hospital for the area is Queen Alexandra at Cosham, and on Hayling Island the single carriageway to the bridge can crawl in summer. Ring 0208 129 5854 and we will talk it through, with no obligation.

Live-In Care at Home in Havant: Spring Water, Harbour Light and Old Railway Paths
Imagine a bright April afternoon. A retired signalman of ninety, who rode the Hayling Billy as a young man, is wrapped up in a coat and wheeled onto the old railway line while a flask of tea rides in the basket. His carer slows at the point where the trail meets Langstone Harbour so he can watch the birds on the water, and he tells her which ones he used to spot from the carriage window. He is tired by teatime, but happier than he has been since the winter, and he rings his niece to say that he has been back on the old line.
If your father or mother has a place that still matters to them, a seat by the water or a route they used to cycle, say so when you phone and the carer will build the week around it.
A good afternoon needs a reliable routine behind it, so here is how a live-in carer spends the hours from the first cup of tea to the last check at night.
Starting the Day Unhurried
Getting up, washing, dressing and breakfast are done at the speed your relative chooses, with nobody checking a watch. The carer is already in the house, so there is no rota to meet and no knock on the door at a fixed time.
A Breath of Fresh Air
Havant Park, with the pavilion that local businesses paid for in 1890, is a gentle place to sit and watch the town go by. The carer picks the bench, brings a blanket and carries whatever is needed, and there is no need to hurry home.
Medicines and Appointments
Tablets are given at the right times and noted down each day. When a clinic letter arrives, the carer reads it with your relative, works out how to get there and goes along to hear what the doctor says.
Food Worth Sitting Down To
Fish pie, a shepherd’s pie with plenty of gravy, or porridge with stewed apple, all made in your relative’s own kitchen and adjusted for whatever the dietician has advised. A walk along pedestrianised West Street can turn into the shopping list.
Time for Interests
Some afternoons suit a visit to The Spring, where a re-created 1950s kitchen and an interactive Hayling Billy model can be seen free of charge. Other days are for letters, crosswords, a phone call to a grandchild or an hour of Angel Radio’s older records.
A Quiet Night
Last thing, the carer locks up, switches on the landing light and sets the walking frame beside the bed. Should your relative wake confused at three in the morning, a steady voice is just along the corridor.

Why Havant Families Choose NeeryVille Care
We looked at the pages other providers put in front of anyone typing live in care in Havant into a search box. One lists live-in rates from £1,675 a week but names no hospital and no council. Another invites you to ask for a quotation and links Hampshire County Council for funding, while a third promises transparent pricing without printing a single figure. None of the three names a hospital. Here, the daily rate, the hospital, the council and local dementia support all sit together, and each carer is on NeeryVille's own payroll. Here is why Havant families choose us.
One Familiar Face
A live-in carer who has been in the house a fortnight knows how the tea is made, which cushion goes behind the back and how to coax a smile when the afternoon turns difficult. Strangers become part of the family.
Our same-carer approach rests on this, and for anyone whose memory is fading it is the thing that matters most.
A Fortnight to Decide
If you have doubts at any stage during the first 14 days, you can end the arrangement without giving notice and without paying a penalty.
The 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee means a Havant family can try live-in care and judge it from experience.
Employed, Not Agency
NeeryVille Care Ltd is registered with the Care Quality Commission. The carer who comes to Havant is trained, supervised and employed by us rather than picked from a pool of freelancers, and you can check our registration on the CQC website.
Clinically Guided
Every placement works within a clinical governance framework shaped by experienced clinicians, so support for dementia, Parkinson’s disease or recovery after a stroke stays consistent week after week.
A Carer Within Days
Ward plans change, and the notice for going home can be a matter of hours. When your relative is due to leave Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham, a carer can normally be in the house one to two days after you ring, which puts 24 hour care in Havant in place before the taxi pulls up.
A Manager Who Picks Up
Daniel Johnson, our Registered Care Manager, brings twelve years in care and a specialism in dementia, and he is accountable for each placement. When you ring, you speak to him or to someone on his 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.

24 Hour Care in Havant: When the Home Stops Being Safe on Its Own
Rarely does a family decide in a single afternoon. Post begins to pile up behind the door, the fridge holds three jars of the same jam, and a neighbour mentions that the bins have not been put out for a fortnight.
Picture a woman of eighty-six in a ground-floor home in Bedhampton, recently back from Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham after a chest infection. She is steady on her feet in the kitchen but not on the stairs, she skips meals when nobody is watching, and she has begun to forget what she has taken. A carer living in the house means regular food, tablets given and noted, and a hand on her arm at the foot of the stairs. If you recognise your own mother in that, phone and talk it through.
The carer learns her likes and dislikes, and slowly the weeks regain a pattern.
Maybe the tired one is you. Our respite care in Havant puts a trained carer in your relative’s home for a weekend, a fortnight or longer, giving you time to sleep through the night, keep an appointment or just rest. Call and we will agree dates that fit.
Conditions Our Carers Support in Havant
Our live-in carers in Havant support people living with dementia, recovering from a stroke, or living with Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cancer and reduced mobility, in the town centre, in neighbourhoods such as Bedhampton, Langstone and Leigh Park, and across Hayling Island.
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.
Staying Together Between Harbour and Downs: Couples in Havant
Consider a husband and wife who spent their working lives in a Havant glove and leather trade family. He has Parkinson’s and needs a steadying arm at the door, while she has early dementia and loses the thread of the day. Each covers for the other, and the idea that a care home might put them in separate buildings fills them both with dread.
One live-in carer can look after both of them, helping him with the step and keeping her company through the afternoon. Call us and we will describe how a single care plan works for two people.

Why Havant Families Choose Live-In Care at Home Instead of a Care Home
If your relative has lived in Havant for decades, live-in care lets them keep the park, the spring and the harbour views they know.
This is a town whose name comes from a spring, which supplied a parchment works until 1936 and whose market goes back to 1200. A fire in 1760 and a railway in 1847 have shaped it since. Many older people here feel part of that story and would rather live beside it than be moved to an unfamiliar building elsewhere.
At home they keep their own bed, their own cupboards and the little habits of a lifetime. One carer moves in and learns all of them, so the person who helps at breakfast is the same person who helps at bedtime, and a husband and wife can remain together with one carer for both.
With the main acute hospital at Cosham, and the Hayling Island road slow in summer, outings and appointments need forethought. A live-in carer takes on the steps, the shopping and the unhurried walks, and when your relative comes home from Queen Alexandra Hospital the same carer can be there to open the door.
If you would like to discuss what could work for your family, phone 0208 129 5854. Raise anything you like; there is no obligation.
What Live-In Care in Havant Costs Each Day: £190
Most families want the figure before anything else, so here it is.
Live-in care with NeeryVille in Havant starts from £190 per day, fully inclusive. No hidden fees, no extra charges.
Once the free assessment is done you receive the exact price in writing, and nothing begins until you have agreed to it.
What You Get for the Daily Rate
Think of a typical week: the Saturday market on West Street, a slow turn round Havant Park on Tuesday, coffee and a look at the displays at The Spring on Thursday, and a quiet Sunday at St Faith’s. The daily rate covers a carer who lives in and is available at night if needed, washing and dressing help, home-cooked meals, tablets given on time and noted, steady support on the stairs, prescriptions fetched and plenty of company.
Where needs go further, such as dementia care at home, live-in care for a couple or recovery after an operation, we agree a tailored price once we have met. Tell us what is happening and we will explain the options.
Paying for Care at Home in Havant
Not all costs fall on the family. NHS Continuing Healthcare is a separate route: the NHS pays when a person’s main need is health related, and that decision rests on a formal assessment.
Hampshire County Council runs adult social care for the county, and its adult social care pages describe eligibility and paying for care and point to the Connect to Support Hampshire website. They are offered as information only, and no family has to begin there.
Age Concern Hampshire, on 01962 868545, runs an Information Service that helps older people complete forms for Attendance Allowance, Personal Independence Payment and Pension Credit, and also provides Hospital to Home support. For dementia, Havant Borough Council has held a free drop-in Havant Dementia Information Day at the Public Service Plaza in Civic Centre Road, with talks on wills and power of attorney and the Singing for the Mind Dementia Choir.
A carer can frequently start while paperwork is still being processed, so there is no need to hold back.
Not sure where to start?

Taking the First Step With
Lifting the receiver is the difficult part, and after it a carer is only four steps away.
01
Ring us
Nothing needs to be prepared beforehand.
Dial 0208 129 5854 and Daniel Johnson or a member of his team will take your call.
Describe what has been happening, and we will go through the possibilities together without forms or pressure.
Awkward conversations are part of our everyday work, so speak plainly.
03
Their Havant
Each person has their own Havant. For one it is a childhood spent near Hall Place, for another the sound of the Hayling Billy heading for Langstone, a grandmother’s Sunday service at St Joseph’s, a father who cheered when Havant and Waterlooville beat Swansea City in a replay to reach the FA Cup fourth round in January 2008, a neighbour who worked at the glove factory before it stopped production in 1960, or an aunt who walked the lanes towards Warblington Castle on summer evenings.
Everything goes into the care plan, so the carer can open conversations that mean something to your relative. Get in touch when you are ready.
Matching the Carer
We weigh experience, health needs and character before introducing the carer who seems to suit your household best.
With the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee behind you, a fortnight is enough time to see whether the match works.
02
04
Settling In
Most carers arrive within a day or two of our first conversation, and sooner when a ward has set a discharge date.
If your relative is leaving Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham, we will time the move-in to coincide with the day they come home.
One contact at NeeryVille stays with you from the first call until the placement has settled.
Phone today and a carer could be settling into your relative’s home before the weekend. If the hospital has named a day, tell us and we will work back from it.
Our Registered Care Manager does the free assessment in person and rings again after the move-in. Live-in care is all we do, so whoever picks up the phone already understands what you are facing.

Questions Havant Families Ask About Live-In Care
How much does live-in care in Havant cost?
Live-in care in Havant costs £190 per day, fully inclusive, with no extras added afterwards. After the free assessment you get the exact figure in writing before you agree to anything.
How quickly can live-in care start in Havant?
Usually a carer is living in within two days of the first call, even when the call comes from a hospital ward. Our number is 0208 129 5854.
Do you provide live-in care for people with dementia?
Yes. Someone with dementia often copes best with one known carer in their own home rather than a rota of strangers. The Havant Dementia Information Day gives families a free drop-in morning of talks and stalls, and your GP can arrange a memory assessment.
Is live-in care better than a care home?
That decision is for your relative and family to make. Home means the same street, the same routines and, for a couple, the same roof, though we will always be straight about what suits and what does not.
What happens if my carer is ill or on holiday?
If the regular carer is unwell or away, we arrange a replacement so your relative is never left on their own.
Is NeeryVille Care regulated by the CQC?
Yes. NeeryVille Care Ltd is registered with the Care Quality Commission, and our CQC provider page is open for anyone to read.
Which areas of Havant do you cover?
We cover the whole of Havant, including Bedhampton, Langstone, Warblington and Leigh Park, and across Hayling Island.
Do you offer respite care in Havant?
Yes, we offer respite care in Havant. If you have looked after a parent, husband or wife for a long time, a live-in carer takes over at home for a long weekend, a fortnight or longer, so that you can rest.
Can you support a hospital discharge?
Yes. When your relative leaves Queen Alexandra Hospital or any other ward, we get the carer into the house first so that it is warm, the bed is ready and the first day is already planned.
What is the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee?
If the arrangement is not right, you can stop at any point during the first 14 days with no notice and no fee.
How do I pay, and can I get funding?
Payment is by Bank Transfer or Direct Debit only. Support may be available through NHS Continuing Healthcare or an assessment by Hampshire County Council, and Age Concern Hampshire can help with benefit forms.
Can a live-in carer take my father along the Hayling Billy Trail?
Yes. The trail follows the former railway line from Havant to the south of Hayling Island and is open to walkers, cyclists and riders, with parking and many points of access to the Langstone Harbour shore. The carer can choose a dry day and a short stretch, and bring a flask.
Is there a place in Havant where my wife with dementia can meet others?
Havant Borough Council has held a free Havant Dementia Information Day at the Public Service Plaza, Civic Centre Road, with stalls, talks and the Singing for the Mind Dementia Choir. The 2026 event was on Friday 10 July from 10am to 1pm. Her live-in carer can go with her.
How would my mother travel by train from Havant to Brighton or London?
Havant station, opened on 15 March 1847, has three trains an hour towards Brighton and two an hour to London Waterloo via Guildford, as well as services to Portsmouth Harbour. A live-in carer can plan the day, manage the luggage and sit beside her.
