Do you cover remote villages on Dartmoor or Exmoor?
Yes — we routinely place carers who drive in rural Devon locations and are comfortable with limited mobile signal or longer journeys to shops.

Live-in Care in Devon
Devon's mix of coastline, moorland and market towns makes it one of the most popular counties for retirement — and one where families most often want to keep their loved one at home. CareSetup introduces vetted live-in carers across the county.
Why live-in care in Devon
Stay at home in Devon with a carer matched to you.
Many Devon residents have chosen their home specifically for the views, the garden, the dog or the sea air. Live-in care preserves all of that while providing the day-to-day support a person needs.
Rural Devon also presents practical challenges — travel times to care homes, scattered services and limited public transport. A live-in carer who drives removes many of those barriers in one go.
We coordinate live-in placements alongside community nursing and hospital teams across the Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, University Hospitals Plymouth and Torbay & South Devon, including rapid hospital-discharge cover.
Devon's combination of long rural distances and a high proportion of older residents makes live-in care particularly powerful here — one consistent carer in the home, instead of multiple short visits from miles away.

Do your Devon carers support dementia care?

Yes — we work with local hospice teams and district nurses to provide compassionate live-in support for clients who want to remain at home.
