Round-the-clock, 24-hour live-in care in Uxbridge
Your relative can stay put in Uxbridge while a Care Professional comes to live with them and help through each day. Your relative keeps their routine, their own room and the people they see each week.
We arrange care across Hillingdon from Highview House, our London office in Edgware. Hillingdon families get carers who have cleared enhanced DBS, right-to-work and reference checks and our training. For families in Cowley, Ickenham or Hillingdon village, a consultant is on hand around the clock.

Rest for the person who lives in
Your relative's carer will need a set break every day and an unbroken night's sleep wherever possible. If nights are where most of the help is needed, flag it at the assessment and we will talk through night support.
Uxbridge and the borough's homes
Uxbridge is the administrative centre of the London Borough of Hillingdon. It grew again after the Metropolitan line arrived in 1904, and today it is also home to Brunel University London. We check each home for a bedroom the carer can use, plus stairs, bathroom layout and room for equipment.
A husband and wife can frequently be supported by the same carer, after we have looked at what each of them needs. The trade-offs are set out in live-in care or a care home?
Hillingdon Council and local carer support
Hillingdon Council asks for a social care assessment before it can arrange support, and you can start one online. The NHS explains what a care needs assessment covers if you want to prepare.
Whoever has been helping day to day can also request a carer's assessment. Carers Trust Hillingdon gives free advice and practical support to unpaid carers of all ages across the borough, on 01895 811206.
After Hillingdon Hospital
Hillingdon Hospital is on Pield Heath Road, Uxbridge (UB8 3NN), and is run by The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, which also runs Mount Vernon Hospital. Tell the discharge team you are planning live-in care so the carer is briefed on medicines and mobility. Where health needs dominate, the ward can tell you whether NHS Continuing Healthcare should be considered.
Getting to and around Uxbridge
Uxbridge station is the western end of both the Metropolitan and Piccadilly lines, which keeps family visits simple. The Grand Union Canal runs just west of the town and forms part of the borough boundary.

A live-in carer sleeps at night in their own room and is close by, but is not on duty all night. Where help after dark is a regular need, raise it at the Uxbridge assessment so night support can be discussed.
In many cases. Couples in Hillingdon often want to stay in their own home together, and one carer can make that work if both partners' needs suit it.
