What is live in care?
Templar Estate Planning is proud to work with and recommend The Live in Care Company for your at home care needs. Local to Reading, and with five-star ratings, The Live in Care Company provides one to one care services for yourself or a loved one.
Instead of leaving your home to move into a residential care home, and suffering all the upheaval that can cause, live in care means that you stay and receive care in the comfort of your own home from a trained and experienced carer who moves into your home; to provide care, companionship, and domestic support around the clock. This can be on a long or short term and even on a trial basis.
What are the benefits of live in care?
As we all get older and find day to day activities more and more difficult – thoughts can turn to how you can get help and support either for yourself or a loved one. You might think that moving to residential care home is your only option when a live in carer could be the perfect alternative.
Having a live in carer has the benefit of allowing you to be cared for whilst remaining at home within your familiar environment, with neighbours, friends and family nearby, and the things you have grown to love and be comforted by. A move to residential care can often give rise to anxiety and adjustment difficulties. By having a live in carer, you don’t have to move to a residential home. Instead, the carer will come in and adapt to your environment, greatly reducing anxiety and stress at an often confusing period of live. Live in carers become great companions for clients and having a familiar face enables a bond to be formed.

We had an excellent experience with Templar Estate Planning. They prepared the Lasting Power of Attorney application for my father and made the whole process straightforward and easy to understand.The team were professional, helpful and patient throughout, taking the time to explain everything clearly and answer any questions we had. We felt well looked after and confident that everything was completed correctly.I would happily recommend their services to anyone looking for professional and reliable estate planning advice.
Dave took all the stress out of setting up our wills and LPAs. He clearly knows his stuff and nothing was too much trouble for him. I thoroughly recommend him
Dave guided me through my first will and made it very simple - highly recommend
We recently needed to update our Wills and POAs. David at Templar Estate Planning in Caversham was recommended to us and we weren’t disappointed. David was excellent in sorting out both requirements , explaining everything clearly and making sure that we understood the whole process. He was very patient and answered all our questions with great care and understanding. The whole experience was positive and stress free. We have no hesitation in recommending David highly and he will definitely be our first port of call should we need any help and advice in the future
Templar have been very easy to deal with, they’ve been very knowledgable and outlined all our options in a very easy to understand manner. They’ve been very helpful in guiding me to the right will and explaining complications and pitfalls.I have recommended to all my friends and family and if you’re looking for assistance in any estate planning that you speak to them.
Excellent service from Templar Estate Planning from start to finish. David explained in detail too my son and myself in filling in the Power of Attorney forms. Would certainly use again if needed.
We have used Templar for our own estate planning and were given excellent service and advise, we recommended it to other members of our family who have since used them and also received the same level of friendly service with no pressure, would highly recommend
David was very understanding of the situation we were faced with and we couldn’t fault his knowledge or customer service in helping us. Many thanks and won’t hesitate in recommending you to friends and family.
