Compassionate, around-the-clock in-home support for seniors who need consistent care and companionship.
One Caregiver. Around the Clock.
So your family can rest easy.
A consistent live-in caregiver moves in to keep your parent safe, supported, and living independently at home — day and night, with a flat-rate arrangement instead of hourly surprises.
Quick answer: 24/7 live-in senior care means one trained caregiver lives in your loved one's home for multi-day shifts, providing round-the-clock supervision, personal care, meals, medication reminders, and companionship — for a flat daily or weekly rate instead of unpredictable hourly billing. LivePeace 24/7 provides live-in caregivers across Greater Vancouver and Vancouver Island, with fast placement available after a hospital discharge, subject to assessment and caregiver availability.
Choosing the right live-in caregiver for a parent or spouse is one of the most important decisions a family will make. At LivePeace 24/7, we make it simpler. Trusted by 100+ families across Greater Vancouver, we provide compassionate, flat-rate live-in senior care that keeps seniors safe, comfortable, and independent — at home, where they belong.
We serve families in Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Coquitlam, Delta, Victoria, Nanaimo, and surrounding communities. Whether your loved one needs a few hours of daily help or a full-time live-in caregiver, our team is ready with a plan that fits.
What sets LivePeace apart is our caregiver-client matching process. We pair every senior with a compatible caregiver based on personality, health needs, language, and daily routine — the foundation of consistent, dependable live-in home care.
24/7 live-in senior care means one trained caregiver lives in the senior's home for an extended shift — usually several days at a time — providing round-the-clock supervision, personal care, meal preparation, medication reminders, mobility assistance, and companionship. The caregiver sleeps in the home overnight and is available if the senior needs help during the night, then rotates out for scheduled rest and relief.
This is different from hourly home care, where a caregiver visits for a set number of hours and then leaves. It's also different from a nursing home or retirement home, where the senior moves out of their own house into a shared facility. Live-in care lets your parent age in place — in the home they know, surrounded by their own furniture, neighbours, and routines — while still receiving a level of supervision that gives families real peace of mind after a fall, a stroke, or a dementia diagnosis.
In Vancouver and across British Columbia, demand for 24-hour home care has grown quickly as families try to avoid long retirement home waitlists and rising private facility costs. Live-in care is often the practical middle ground between checking in a few hours a week and moving a parent into a facility.

Live-in care is a fit for seniors who need more support than a weekly visit can provide, but who don't need hospital-level medical monitoring. Families across Metro Vancouver typically reach out to us in these situations:
Hospital discharge planners, social workers, and case managers across the region regularly refer families to live-in care as a faster-to-arrange alternative to a residential care bed. If you're a discharge planner or case manager, speak with our care coordinator about placement timelines.
If two or more of these sound familiar, it's worth booking a free, no-obligation care assessment. We'll visit the home, talk with your family, and tell you honestly whether live-in care, hourly care, or another option makes the most sense.

Every live-in care plan is built around the senior's actual needs. LivePeace coordinates the daily, nightly, and specialized support below.
Daily: morning wake-up and hygiene support, dressing and grooming, meal preparation, medication reminders, light housekeeping and laundry, mobility assistance and transfers, companionship and mental stimulation, and transportation to appointments and errands.
Night: the caregiver sleeps in the home and is available if the senior wakes, with bathroom assistance and fall prevention overnight, monitoring for wandering, and comfort for anxious or confused clients. Overnight support level is agreed in your care plan.
Help with mobility, hygiene, meals, and reminders while your loved one recovers at home after surgery or a hospital stay.
Short-term live-in coverage so family caregivers can rest, travel, or recharge knowing their loved one is in good hands.
Every family's situation is different. This comparison can help you decide which type of care may be appropriate for your loved one.

Live-in care is not the same as having a caregiver awake and actively working every minute of the day. Rest periods, sleep arrangements, breaks, relief coverage and the level of overnight assistance must be agreed upon in advance. If your loved one needs continuous awake supervision or complex clinical care, a different staffing arrangement may be required.
The cost of live-in senior care depends on the level of assistance required, the length of the arrangement, the senior's mobility and personal-care needs, overnight requirements, and whether additional caregivers or relief coverage are necessary.
Ask about flat-rate live-in care: A flat daily or weekly arrangement can make budgeting easier than paying for separate hourly visits throughout the day. The precise rate should be confirmed with LivePeace following a care assessment.
Before comparing providers, ask what is included in the quoted price, how caregiver breaks and overnight rest are handled, whether replacement coverage is available, and how changes in care needs affect the rate.

Good live-in care depends on more than availability. The caregiver and senior will share a home environment, so compatibility, communication, experience and clear expectations matter.
We discuss daily routines, personal-care requirements, mobility, preferences and family concerns.
We consider the required skills, language, personality and relevant caregiving experience.
We clarify duties, scheduling, overnight arrangements, rest periods, relief coverage and costs.
We encourage families to communicate changing needs so the care arrangement can be reviewed.
Our goal is to build a dependable arrangement that respects your loved one's routines and preferences while giving family members greater confidence in their care plan.
Coming home after surgery, a fall or an illness can be challenging for an older adult. Families may need help coordinating meals, mobility, personal hygiene, reminders and everyday routines while the senior adjusts at home.
Live-in home care may help bridge the gap between hospital discharge and a return to greater independence. The appropriate plan depends on the discharge instructions and the person's actual needs. Non-medical caregivers do not replace nurses, physicians or other regulated health professionals.
LivePeace can discuss the proposed care schedule with the family and, where appropriate, coordinate practical support around the discharge plan. Placement timing depends on caregiver availability, assessment and the level of care required.
Tell us the expected discharge date, the support needed at home and any important mobility or personal-care requirements. We can discuss whether live-in care is a suitable option.
For many families, the hardest part of dementia care is the unpredictability — confusion in the evening, wandering at night, or a sudden change in routine. A consistent live-in caregiver can offer familiar faces, steady routines, and calm reassurance in a setting the senior already knows.
Dementia care needs vary widely from person to person. If your loved one needs continuous awake supervision or has complex behavioural or medical needs, we'll tell you honestly during the assessment whether live-in care is the right fit or whether a different arrangement would serve them better.
Yes. The caregiver sleeps in the home and is available if your loved one needs help overnight. The expected level of overnight support is agreed in advance as part of the care plan. If your loved one needs a caregiver who is awake all night, tell us during the assessment so we can recommend the right arrangement.
Live-in care uses a caregiver who lives in the home on a scheduled shift with agreed rest and sleep periods. 24-hour awake care typically uses multiple caregivers working in rotation so someone is awake at all times. Which one is appropriate depends on your loved one's needs.
Timing depends on the care assessment, the type of care needed, and caregiver availability. Families planning around a hospital discharge should contact us as early as possible with the expected discharge date.
Live-in care may be offered at a flat daily or weekly rate. The exact cost depends on care needs, overnight requirements, and schedule, and is confirmed after a free assessment. You can also review our home care pricing page.
LivePeace caregivers provide medication reminders. They are non-medical caregivers and do not replace nurses, physicians, or other regulated health professionals.
