Care with a Personal Touch

Our platform considers over 25 personality traits and care skills to match you with self-employed carers who truly fit your family’s needs. You can view detailed carer profiles, chat directly, and choose the person who feels right — no pressure, no guesswork. And because care decisions are often shared, we’ve built tools that let the whole family stay involved and make decisions together.

You Make the Decisions

At No1 Healthcare, we believe families should stay in control. That’s why you arrange care directly with your chosen carer — not through a rigid care company. Together, you decide on the routine, the schedule, and the way care is delivered. It’s about keeping things familiar and personal, just the way it should be.

Affordable, Transparent Support

Live-in care doesn’t have to break the bank. With No1 Healthcare, you only pay for the care you need — no upfront costs, no hidden fees. Because we connect you with independent carers, our service is typically 35% more cost-effective than traditional managed care agencies.

How Much Does Live-in Care Cost?

Families typically pay from £1,095 per week for live-in care through the No1 Healthcare platform.

As with all types of care, funding support may be available. If you haven’t already, it’s a good idea to request a care needs assessment from your local authority. This will help determine what level of support you may be eligible for, including potential financial assistance.

If you’re found ineligible for local authority funding, you might still qualify for help from benevolent funds or charitable organisations. Your GP, social worker, health visitor, or a local carers’ group can guide you to the right resources.
