Live-In Care in Sidmouth
Yes, NeeryVille Care provides live-in care in Sidmouth, sending a vetted carer to live under your relative's roof and follow the pattern of their day, from the morning kettle to the evening curtains. With one person present throughout, new wobbliness, a poor appetite or confusion over pills is spotted quickly. A single phone call will tell you if this suits your family.
Is someone you love in Sidmouth Hospital this week, or waiting for the nod to go home? Give us the likely date and we can have a carer inside the house, with the heating on, when they arrive.
Sidmouth Hospital stands on Allsaints Road, yet with a hill either side and the railway shut since 1967, a short appointment still takes planning for an older person on their own. Ring 0208 129 5854 and we can go through it, without obligation.

Live-In Care at Home in Sidmouth: the Esplanade, Connaught Gardens and Peak Hill
Think of a woman of eighty-six who played in a brass band as a girl and still counts a summer Sunday by the town band in Connaught Gardens. Her carer settles her into a coat and a sunhat, takes her down by the Esplanade and finds two seats near the bandstand. She taps her foot, hums the marches and tells the carer which cornet player was always flat. Afterwards they stop for a pot of tea, and she goes to bed that night still talking about it.
Should your mother or father have a favourite tune or outing like this, say so when you ring and the week can be planned around it.
A treat like that depends on a calm household behind it, so here is how a live-in carer fills the hours from waking to the last lamp switched off.
A Gentle Beginning
Your relative gets up, washes and dresses at their own pace, with the breakfast they have always had ready when they are, and nobody rattling the door.
Fresh Air
On a mild day the carer can go with your relative along the Esplanade, up to a bench on Peak Hill or into Connaught Gardens, with a blanket in the bag and a coffee afterwards.
Medicines and Clinics
Medicines go in at the right hour and are logged. For a surgery appointment or a clinic at Sidmouth Hospital the carer goes along, hears what is said and reports back to relatives.
Proper Food
Kedgeree, lamb stew or a milk pudding is made in your relative's own kitchen, within whatever dietary advice applies, and the carer is glad to learn the family favourites.
Talk and Company
Conversation about the folk festival, a game of whist or the Sunday cricket on Fortfield fills the afternoon. If a memory cafe or the Radway Cinema appeals, the carer can take your relative along.
Safe at Home
Steep stairs, curling rugs and wet steps after a storm off the sea are spotted and put right. Anything worrying is passed to the family long before it can turn into a fall.

Why Sidmouth Families Choose NeeryVille Care
Before writing this page we read what other firms show to families looking for live-in care in Sidmouth. One franchise coordinates the town from its Exeter branch and lists a weekly figure; another large provider has a Sidmouth page with no price, hospital or council; a third offers only a blog post. We prefer to state one daily price, name the hospital on Allsaints Road and the county council, and send carers we employ ourselves. Here is why Sidmouth families choose us.
A familiar face
Within a few weeks the carer knows the way your relative takes their tea, which window they like opened and what settles them when the light fades. They become part of the household instead of a visitor.
Our same-carer approach is built on that. For anyone whose memory is thinning, the same friendly person at the breakfast table every day is worth more than any rota.
Two weeks to see
If it turns out not to suit, you may stop at any time in the first 14 days without giving notice or paying a penny.
This is the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee, so a Sidmouth family can judge the fit with a live-in carer before going further.
On our payroll
NeeryVille Care Ltd holds Care Quality Commission registration. We employ, train and oversee every carer ourselves, and you can check our registration on the CQC website.
Clinical guidance
Each placement follows a clinical governance framework produced with experienced clinicians, which keeps support for dementia, Parkinson's disease and stroke recovery steady from week to week.
Quick to arrive
Wards often want a bed back quickly. Once we have talked, a carer is normally on the doorstep within 24 to 48 hours, which means 24 hour care in Sidmouth can start the day your relative comes out of Sidmouth Hospital. Give us the date and we will work to it.
A manager who answers
Daniel Johnson, our Registered Care Manager, has twelve years in care with a dementia specialism, and oversees each placement personally. When you ring, he or a colleague who knows the work will pick up.
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 and Respite Care in Sidmouth: When Family Need a Break
Few families remember the exact moment. A daughter notices that her mother has stopped going to the Sunday band concerts, or a son finds the same post unopened on the mat for a week, and still she says there is nothing wrong.
Take a widow of ninety who lives alone in a Regency terrace with a steep flight of front steps. She has always managed, and nobody has persuaded her otherwise. One wet morning she slips on the top step, lies there until the postman finds her and is taken to Sidmouth Hospital. Back at home the steps feel like a cliff, and she stops going out. A live-in carer would have taken her arm on the stairs. If that picture rings true, please phone us before a fall makes the choice for you.
When we speak first, we ask about her neighbours, her old job and her favourite programmes, because those small things shape the plan.
Or it may be you who is shattered, after nights of broken sleep with a husband who wanders. Arranging respite care in Sidmouth places a live-in carer in your home for a week, a fortnight or longer, so you can rest properly. Ring us and we will agree the dates.
Conditions Our Carers Support in Sidmouth
Our live-in carers in Sidmouth support people living with dementia, recovering from a stroke, or living with Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cancer and reduced mobility, whether they live near the seafront, up towards Salcombe Hill or in the Sid Valley beyond the town.
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 Home: Couples in Sidmouth
Picture a husband and wife who met at the Sidmouth Folk Festival in their twenties and have been back every August since. He is now confused about the day of the week and she cannot manage the steep stairs alone. Neither could bear to be sent to a separate care home.
A single live-in carer can support both, steadying her on the stairs and quietly guiding him through the day, so they keep their sitting room and their habits. We can explain how one placement covers two people.

Why Sidmouth Families Choose Live-In Care at Home Instead of a Care Home
If your relative has lived in Sidmouth for most of their life, live-in care lets them stay by the Sid and the streets they know.
A first civic society formed in 1846, a royal baby staying at Woolbrook Glen in 1819, Connaught Gardens and the observatory on Salcombe Hill make up a story older residents feel is their own. They would rather stay near it than move to a building where nothing is familiar.
Staying put means the familiar bed, armchair and view from the window. A resident carer picks up each small habit, so whoever helps at breakfast is there at bedtime too, and a married couple can remain together with one carer looking after them both.
Allsaints Road is home to Sidmouth Hospital, but hills on two sides and no railway make getting about harder for a frail person. Following a ward stay, the carer is waiting to help with steps, shopping and a slow first walk.
To discuss what could work for your family, call 0208 129 5854 and ask us anything, with no obligation.
The Daily Price of Live-In Care in Sidmouth: £190
Knowing the figure from the start takes away much of the worry.
Live-in care with NeeryVille in Sidmouth starts from £190 per day, fully inclusive. No hidden fees, no extra charges.
After the free assessment you are given the exact figure in writing, and nothing is signed until you are content.
What the Daily Rate Includes
A typical Sidmouth week might include a gentle walk past Jacob's Ladder into Connaught Gardens, an hour at Sidmouth Museum beside the parish church and a film at the Radway Cinema. The daily rate covers a carer living in, night-time availability, help to wash and dress, freshly cooked meals, medicines given and recorded, and a companion for appointments.
Needs such as recovery after an operation, live-in care for a couple or dementia care at home are priced once we have spoken. Tell us what is involved and you will get a straight answer.
Paying for Care at Home in Sidmouth
NHS Continuing Healthcare is funding from the NHS for people whose needs are chiefly ongoing and health related. It rests on an assessment rather than a diagnosis, so it is worth enquiring about for your relative.
Devon County Council is responsible for adult social care in Sidmouth; its enquiries line is 0345 155 1007, open Monday to Thursday 9am to 5pm and Friday 9am to 4pm. This is information only, and nobody has to start there.
Age UK Exeter offers free information and advice on 01392 455614, including benefit checks, though callers should first confirm their address falls in its area. Age UK Exeter's Sid Valley dementia map shows Admiral Nurse support and three memory cafes, and the Sidmouth Hospital services page lists an Admiral Nurse, elderly care and Parkinson's clinics.
Care can often start while funding is still being worked out, so please do not wait.

Getting Started in Sidmouth:
Picking up the phone is the hard part for most families, and four easy steps then put a carer in the house.
01
Just ring
There is nothing to prepare.
Ring 0208 129 5854 and Daniel Johnson or a colleague will take the call.
Tell us how things are at home and we will say frankly what we can do, with no pressure.
We speak to families in your position every day, so nothing you tell us will come as a shock.
03
Their Sidmouth
Sidmouth is a different place to each person: the Old Ship that has been a tavern since the 1400s, the Donkey Sanctuary that began here in 1969, Tolkien's holiday in 1938, Betjeman's film of the town in 1962 or the Old Chancel folly in Coburg Terrace.
Whatever your relative holds dear goes into the care plan, so the carer can mention it at just the right time. Phone when you are ready.
Choosing the carer
We look at experience, health needs and temperament, then suggest the carer we believe will fit your household best.
The 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee gives you two weeks to judge whether the match feels right.
02
04
Moving in
Most carers arrive a day or two after the first call, and faster when a discharge date has been set.
If your relative is still at Sidmouth Hospital, we plan the journey home around what the ward advises.
You deal with one named person from the first call right through to settling in.
Phone now and a carer may be living with your relative within days. If the ward has named a discharge date, tell us and we will plan back from it.
The free assessment is done in person by our Registered Care Manager, who calls afterwards to ask how the carer is settling in. We do live-in care and nothing else, so whoever answers knows the subject.

Neeryville Care - Compassionate Home Care You Can Trust
Your Sidmouth Questions About Live-In Care, Answered
How much does live-in care in Sidmouth cost?
Live-in care in Sidmouth costs £190 per day, fully inclusive, with no extras appearing later. We confirm the sum in writing after the free assessment and before you commit.
How quickly can live-in care start in Sidmouth?
Normally within a day or two of your first call, including when you ring from a ward. Everything begins with one conversation.
Do you provide live-in care for people with dementia?
Yes. Many people with dementia are calmer at home with one carer who knows them. Age UK Exeter's Sid Valley dementia map shows local groups, and a GP can refer your relative to a memory service.
Is live-in care better than a care home?
That varies from person to person. Staying home means keeping a familiar bed, view and routine, and couples remain together. We will go through both choices frankly.
What happens if my carer is ill or on holiday?
When the usual carer is poorly or on leave, a cover carer steps in, and your relative is never alone.
Is NeeryVille Care regulated by the CQC?
Yes. NeeryVille Care Ltd is registered with the Care Quality Commission, and you can read our record on the CQC provider page.
Which areas of Sidmouth do you cover?
We cover all of Sidmouth, in the EX10 postcode district, including the seafront, Salcombe Hill and Peak Hill slopes and the wider Sid Valley and East Devon coast.
Do you offer respite care in Sidmouth?
Yes, respite care in Sidmouth is something we offer. After weeks of caring around the clock, a live-in carer can take over for a week or longer so you can recover.
Can you support a hospital discharge?
Yes. If your relative is coming home from Sidmouth Hospital or another hospital, the carer can be waiting at the house, with the rooms warm and ready.
What is the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee?
If it is not working, you can stop at any point in the first 14 days, giving no notice and paying nothing.
How do I pay, and can I get funding?
Payment is by Bank Transfer or Direct Debit only. NHS Continuing Healthcare may apply, Devon County Council can be contacted about support, and Age UK Exeter can advise on benefits.
Which memory cafe in Sidmouth could my wife go to with her carer?
Age UK Exeter's Sid Valley dementia map lists memory cafes at Twyford House on Wednesdays from 2pm to 3.45pm, at the Fort Cafe on Tuesday mornings from 10.30am and at the Anchor Inn on Friday mornings from 10.15am. The map only signposts, so check each one first. Her carer can go along.
Is there a singing group in Sidmouth that my father could enjoy?
The same map lists Age UK Devon Golden Oldies sing-alongs at Sidmouth Library, Blackmore Drive, on the second Wednesday of each month from 11am to 12 noon. Confirm before setting off. A live-in carer can walk or drive him there and sit with him through the songs.
What services does Sidmouth Hospital list for older people?
Sidmouth Hospital, on Allsaints Road, lists elderly care, an Admiral Nurse, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis, orthopaedics and physiotherapy among its services. Its page also says very limited parking is available and that buses serve it, so the carer can plan the trip.
