Do you cover rural areas of the New Forest?
Yes — many of our carers drive and are happy with rural placements where independent transport is important.

Live-in Care in Hampshire
Hampshire is home to historic market towns, naval cities and the New Forest. CareSetup introduces vetted live-in carers who help older Hampshire residents stay at home — safely, comfortably and on their own terms.
Why live-in care in Hampshire
Stay at home in Hampshire with a carer matched to you.
Hampshire has one of the older population profiles in the South of England, and many residents have spent their working lives in Winchester, Portsmouth, Southampton or the rural belt around the New Forest. Live-in care keeps that connection to place intact.
Local care home fees are amongst the highest in the South, and waiting times can be unpredictable. A live-in arrangement is usually faster to start and offers continuous one-to-one support — particularly valuable for people with dementia or after a hospital stay.
We coordinate placements with hospital teams at University Hospital Southampton, Queen Alexandra in Portsmouth, Royal Hampshire County and Basingstoke and North Hampshire — including same-week starts for urgent discharges.
Hampshire spans naval cities, market towns and the New Forest — we match carers who genuinely suit the setting, whether that is a Petersfield village, a Portsmouth flat or a coastal home on the Solent.

Live-in care questions answered.
Can you arrange short-term or respite live-in care in Hampshire?
Yes. We regularly introduce carers for short respite blocks of 1–4 weeks, often when a family carer needs a break or recovery time.
Is live-in care suitable for couples in Hampshire?
Absolutely — caring for a couple is one of the most common requests we receive in Hampshire, and it is generally far more cost-effective than two care home places.
Can a live-in carer support someone leaving QA or Southampton General?
Yes — we frequently coordinate same-week placements for discharges from Queen Alexandra and University Hospital Southampton.
