Live-In Care in Wokingham
Yes, NeeryVille Care provides live-in care in Wokingham: one trained, DBS-checked carer moves into the home, looks after meals and medication, and is there through the night, so your relative can stay with their own belongings and their own routine. If the worry is growing, a single call will tell you whether this could work for the person you have in mind.
After time on a rehabilitation ward at Wokingham Hospital on Barkham Road, a return home can be set for a day that suits the ward more than the family. If the ward has given you a date, share it with us and the carer, a hot meal and a settled first evening can all be lined up for it.
Many Norreys and Woosehill homes date from the 1940s to the 1970s, so stairs and long walks into town are a daily matter. Ring 0208 129 5854 and we will talk it through, with no obligation.

Live-In Care at Home in Wokingham: Market Place, Rose Street and a Cafe on Wednesday Afternoons
Picture a Tuesday morning that begins with a cup of tea and an outing to Cantley Park, where the pavilion hosts a boccia session run by Age UK Berkshire. The carer stays alongside, rolls a ball when it is asked for, and keeps count of the score aloud when it matters to your relative. Back at home there is lunch and a rest, and the whole morning has asked nothing of anyone except time.
If your mother or father has stopped going to something they used to enjoy, mention it when we first speak. A carer can begin with that one thing, so ring us and we will talk it over together.
A good Tuesday is built on ordinary hours at home, so here is how a live-in carer spends the day indoors, from the first kettle to the last tablet at night.
Slow Mornings, Properly Done
Washing, dressing and breakfast happen when your relative is ready, not when a rota says so. Because the carer is already in the house, nobody is watching the clock for a knock at the door.
Fresh Air and Familiar Streets
Elms Field is one of the town's public parks, and the Water Babies sculpture, installed in 1999 as the town's first public sculpture, gives a walk a turning point. The carer reads the weather and your relative's legs and picks the route.
Medication and Clinic Visits
Every dose is given on time and written down. For a rehabilitation or memory appointment at Wokingham Hospital the carer comes too, hears what the clinician says and passes it to the family.
Food They Recognise
Breakfast, lunch and dinner at the pace your relative likes: the carer cooks what your relative actually enjoys, bearing in mind any dietary advice. A dementia friendly fish and chip lunch at Chalk Restaurant on Broad Street, listed in Age UK Berkshire's October 2026 guide with a free meal for guest and carer, shows how a lunch out can be done gently.
Conversation and Company
Some days call for an afternoon at the Alzheimer's Cafe at the Bradbury Centre in Rose Street, which the Age UK Berkshire guide lists for Wednesdays. Other days call for a quiet hour with old photographs, and the carer lets each story arrive in its own time.
Settled Nights
When evening comes the doors are checked, a lamp is left on the landing and loose items come off the stairs. Should your relative wake unsure where they are, somebody calm is only a few steps away.

Why Wokingham Families Choose NeeryVille Care
We typed live in care in Wokingham into a search engine as a worried family member would, then opened the results. One national provider's page names Wokingham Hospital, the Royal Berkshire Hospital and a string of nearby villages, but gives no price and no council link. Another provider's Wokingham page does show a weekly price, £1,675 for one person and £2,125 for a couple, yet names no hospital and no council. A third, shared with Bracknell, runs to about 600 words and offers no price, hospital or council either. Here you get the hospital, the borough council, local dementia support and a daily price all on one page, and the carer who comes is employed by NeeryVille Care. Those are the reasons Wokingham families pick us.
One Face at Breakfast and at Bedtime
Within a fortnight the carer knows how the tea is made, which seat catches the afternoon sun and which song brings a smile. The person beside the bed has become a familiar one.
Our same-carer approach rests on that, and it matters most when dementia has started to blur the faces around someone.
Fourteen Days to Be Sure
If the arrangement does not feel right, you can stop it at any point in the first 14 days, with no notice to give and nothing to pay.
We call this the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee, so a Wokingham family can try live-in care without feeling locked in.
Carers We Employ Ourselves
NeeryVille Care Ltd is registered with the Care Quality Commission. Every carer is employed, trained and supervised by us rather than found through a third party at short notice. You can check our registration on the CQC website.
Clinical Oversight
Each placement runs inside a clinical governance framework shaped by experienced clinicians, which keeps care consistent for conditions such as dementia, Parkinson’s disease or recovery after a stroke.
At the Door Within Two Days
A discharge can be fixed with little warning. Once a leaving date at Wokingham Hospital is known we move fast, and in most cases a suitable carer is in the house inside 24 to 48 hours, which means 24 hour care in Wokingham is in place before the ambulance or taxi arrives. Give us the date and we plan from there.
Led by a Registered Manager
Daniel Johnson, our Registered Care Manager, has twelve years in care and specialist dementia experience, and he takes personal responsibility for every placement. Call and you will speak to him or to a colleague who knows each case.

Dementia Care and Respite Care in Wokingham: When the Estate Years Catch Up
It rarely happens on a chosen date. Small signs gather first: post left unopened, a pan scorched on the hob, a coat on the wrong peg.
Think of someone who moved into one of the 1960s houses on the Norreys Estate when it was new and has lived there ever since. Then a fall lands them on a rehabilitation ward at Wokingham Hospital, where staff say going back to an empty house would be unsafe. A live-in carer then settles in, cooks, prompts the tablets and stays through the night, and the house sounds lived in again. If this sounds like someone close to you, pick up the phone before another fall happens.
Over the weeks the carer learns the names behind the photographs, and the stillness at home eases.
You may be the one who has been stretched between a job and a parent's doorstep for years. With our respite care in Wokingham, a live-in carer takes over at your relative's address for a long weekend, two weeks or more, and you get to recover. Tell us when, and we handle the rest.
Conditions Our Carers Support in Wokingham
Our live-in carers in Wokingham support people living with dementia, recovering from a stroke, or living with Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cancer and reduced mobility, from the Market Place and Emmbrook to Norreys, Woosehill and Keephatch (including postcodes RG40 and RG41).
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.
Together in the Family Home: Couples in Wokingham
Consider two people who have shared a house in Woosehill for decades. One has a heart condition that makes the stairs a struggle, the other is beginning to lose the thread of the day. They steady each other, and the words care home are ones neither wants to hear.
One live-in carer can look after both of them, supporting one on the stairs and staying close to the other. Call us and we will show how a single placement covers two people.

Why Wokingham Families Choose Live-In Care at Home Instead of a Care Home
If your relative has lived in Wokingham for years, live-in care lets the Market Place, the park and their own front door stay part of the week.
The town has held a market since 1219 and its first known charter was issued by Elizabeth I in 1583. The Town Hall was built in 1860, and the Tudor silk houses of Rose Street are still there. A person with that much shared history may feel no other bedroom could be home.
At home they keep their own bed, their cupboards and their own timetable. One carer lives in and learns the small habits, so breakfast and bedtime are with the same face, and two partners can stay together with a single carer looking after both.
The Norreys Estate dates from the 1960s and Woosehill and Dowlesgreen from the late 1960s and early 1970s, and in homes like those stairs and long walks into town can become hard. Wokingham Hospital on Barkham Road has rehabilitation wards, and after a stay there the same live-in carer can be at the door. A carer helps with the stairs, the shopping and the walks.
To talk about what could work for your family, ring us on 0208 129 5854. Ask whatever you like, with no obligation.
Wokingham Live-In Care Price: £190 a Day, Clearly Stated
Cost is usually the first thing families ask, so it comes first here.
Live-in care with NeeryVille in Wokingham starts from £190 per day, fully inclusive. No hidden fees, no extra charges.
After the free assessment the exact figure is put in writing for you, and nothing starts until you have read it.
What Each Day's Price Covers
A good week in Wokingham might include a Wednesday afternoon at the Bradbury Centre, a Thursday film at the Wokingham Film Society's relaxed screening in the Whitty Theatre at Luckley House School, a Friday memory singing group at The Cornerstone on Norreys Avenue and an afternoon with Wokingham Cricket Club, founded in 1825. What you pay each day buys a carer who lives in and is on hand overnight, help with washing and dressing, meals cooked fresh, tablets handed over and recorded, a steadying arm around the house, company at appointments and help with the shopping.
A few circumstances, among them dementia care at home, live-in care for a couple or recovery after an operation, call for a proper conversation before a price is confirmed. Describe what is different and we will go through it with you.
Paying for Care at Home in Wokingham
NHS Continuing Healthcare is paid by the NHS and may cover care where a person's main needs are about health, so it is worth understanding before anything else.
Wokingham Borough Council lists 0300 365 1234 for new referrals to its adult social work team, which looks at your strengths and what support you need. We mention it as information, and no family is expected to begin there. The council's Dementia Care Advisory Service on 0118 904 7200 offers advice on benefits and long-term planning.
Age UK Berkshire, on 0118 959 4242, runs boccia, a walking group, memory singing and dementia cafes across the county, and Wokingham’s Dementia Care Advisory Service also visits people at home and supports carers.
Funding applications can go ahead at the same time as the care, so a carer need not wait for any letter.

Four Steps to a Carer in Wokingham
The call is the difficult bit, and the path after it is brief.
01
Make the call
There is nothing to prepare.
Dial 0208 129 5854 and Daniel Johnson or a colleague will pick up.
Tell us how things have been and we will talk through what is possible, with no forms and no pressure.
Situations like yours reach us daily, so you will not need to explain twice.
03
We listen to the story
We ask what Wokingham means to your relative. It could be the Wokingham Half Marathon each February, a summer afternoon at the cricket club, or the sight of the Water Babies sculpture on a walk into town. One remembered afternoon can open an hour of talk.
What you tell us goes into the care plan, so the carer already knows what to ask about on day one. Call when it feels right.
We find the right match
We only introduce a carer once experience, health needs and temperament have been compared, because sharing a home works only if people get on.
The 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee then gives you two weeks to judge for yourself.
02
04
The carer moves in
Most carers move in a day or two after our first conversation, sooner when a ward has already given a discharge date.
Where your relative is travelling home from Wokingham Hospital or elsewhere, the carer will be waiting at the door.
One named contact at NeeryVille stays with you from the first call until everything has settled.
Ring this morning and a carer could be unpacking by the weekend. Mention any ward date and the plan will be built to match it.
Our Registered Care Manager does the free assessment face to face and phones afterwards to check on the first days. Live-in care is all we do, so you are never passed along.

Neeryville Care - Compassionate Home Care You Can Trust
Wokingham Families Ask About Live-In Care
How much does live-in care in Wokingham cost?
Live-in care in Wokingham costs £190 per day, fully inclusive, and nothing is added later. The final figure is given to you in writing after the free assessment, ahead of any decision.
How quickly can live-in care start in Wokingham?
Typically within about two days of your first call, even when you ring from a ward. Start by calling 0208 129 5854.
Do you provide live-in care for people with dementia?
Yes. Living with dementia is often easier when the same carer shares familiar rooms every day. Wokingham’s Dementia Care Advisory Service gives advice to people with a diagnosis and their families, and a memory assessment can be requested through your GP.
Is live-in care better than a care home?
That is a personal decision for your family. Staying put means keeping a bed, a street and a routine, and couples remain together. We lay out both sides plainly so you choose.
What happens if my carer is ill or on holiday?
If the usual carer is unwell or away, a replacement comes, so your relative is not left on their own.
Is NeeryVille Care regulated by the CQC?
Yes, NeeryVille Care Ltd is registered with the Care Quality Commission, and the registration can be seen on our CQC provider page.
Which areas of Wokingham do you cover?
We cover all of Wokingham: the town centre, Emmbrook, Norreys, Woosehill, Dowlesgreen, Bean Oak and Keephatch, including postcodes RG40 and RG41.
Do you offer respite care in Wokingham?
Yes, we offer respite care in Wokingham. When looking after a parent or partner has left you exhausted, a live-in carer can cover at their home for days or weeks.
Can you support a hospital discharge?
Yes. For a relative returning from Wokingham Hospital or another ward, the carer can already be in the house, with the heating on, food ready and a plan agreed for night one.
What is the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee?
At any time in the first 14 days you can end the placement, with no notice period and no fee.
How do I pay, and can I get funding?
Payment is by Bank Transfer or Direct Debit only. Funding may be available through NHS Continuing Healthcare or after a Wokingham Borough Council assessment, and Age UK Berkshire can look at benefits you may not have claimed.
Is there a dementia cafe in Wokingham town that a live-in carer could take my mother to?
Age UK Berkshire's October 2026 Wokingham guide lists an Alzheimer's Cafe at the Bradbury Centre in Rose Street on Wednesdays, 2 to 3.30pm, fortnightly in term time. A Space for All drop in cafe runs at All Saints Church on London Road on Thursdays, 10am to 1pm. A live-in carer can go with her.
What is on at Wokingham Hospital for someone with memory problems?
Berkshire Healthcare says the Barkham Clinic, where the Memory Service and Older Adults Mental Health services are based, is among the services at Wokingham Hospital on Barkham Road. Free on-site parking and step-free access are listed. A live-in carer can go with your relative to the appointment and report back.
Can my father get to the cricket or a film from the Norreys or Woosehill side of town?
Wokingham Cricket Club dates from 1825, and the Wokingham Film Society offers relaxed screenings in the Whitty Theatre at Luckley House School, free but booking required, according to Age UK Berkshire's October 2026 guide. A live-in carer can book, go along, and bring him home afterwards.
