For many elderly people, and also for people with disabilities, the idea of institutionalisation is not an attractive one. For those who choose not to move into care facilities and homes, it is often necessary to secure a live-in nurse or carer who is responsible for tending to her charge's nutritional, safety and health requirements around the clock.

This person will live in their charge's home, and will be available at almost any time to help with whatever requirements he or she may have.
