Care homes frequently involve extra fees beyond the headline price, making live-in care a cheaper option, especially for couples who avoid paying for two separate rooms.

This allows them to remain comfortably in their own home, receiving dedicated one-to-one support for better value and greater peace of mind than less individualised residential care.
