How are carers vetted?

All carers you get introduced to are interviewed, right to work verified, DBS-checked and reference checked by our team.

How much does care cost?

Rates depend on the type of care and the carer's experience. Most live-in care ranges from £750—£1,400 per week.

What if the match isn't right?

Finding the right person is important. If the match isn't right, we'll help introduce you to other suitable carers from our network.

How quickly can care start?

In many cases care can begin within a few days depending on your requirements and carer availability.

What should I look for when choosing a carer?

Focus on experience with your situation (for example dementia, mobility, or personal care), clear communication, reliability, and references you can follow up. Check that rates and availability are stated, ask how they handle medication support (prompts vs administration), and agree how you will review fit in the first days. Match with Care helps you find carers whose profiles match your criteria; you should still interview and satisfy yourself before agreeing care.

How should I compare carers?

Compare stated experience, services offered, rates, availability, and location. Write down the same questions for each carer (background, training, how they would handle a typical day, escalation if something goes wrong). Use profiles as a starting point only—comparison is based on the information they provide, not a ranking of who is “best” for you.
