“Mum Was Being Discharged Tomorrow… and We Had Nothing in Place.”

Tom’s mum, Evelyn, had just survived a bad fall and a 10-day hospital stay.
Social services offered a care package — but only a few hours per day.
“That wouldn’t cut it. Mum was too weak to be alone overnight.”
Through a friend, Tom found Carelio. Within a single day, a live-in carer,
Judith, was screened and ready. Tom spoke to her the same evening. She
moved in the next day.
“She was incredible. She handled medication, physio prompts, even encouraged Mum to eat
again.”
Evelyn regained strength faster than anyone expected — and even made
Judith a thank-you card.
📍 Type of care: Hospital discharge live-in care
⏱️ Response time: Carer placed within 24 hours
🎯 Outcome: Safe recovery at home, no readmission

“The Nights Were the Worst.” – Why Overnight Care Changed Everything

Sandra’s dad, Michael, 91, had no dementia — but his mobility had
declined fast. Each night, Sandra would lie awake, listening for him. Every
creak of the floorboard felt like a cry for help.
“I felt like I was on-call 24/7. My husband couldn’t sleep either. It took a toll on our whole family.”
Carelio introduced Amara — an overnight carer with a gentle, reassuring
presence. Amara stayed from 9pm to 8am, helping Michael to the
bathroom, preparing a late snack, and simply being there.
“She never made Dad feel like a burden. And for me — I got my nights back.”
Sandra says it saved her marriage — and her sanity.
📍 Type of care: Overnight care, 7 nights per week
🛏 Care schedule: 9pm – 8am
🌟 Result: Family could finally rest, while Dad felt dignified and safe

“We Wanted to Stay Together. That Was Non-Negotiable.”

Arthur (87) and Joan (85) had been married 60 years. But after Arthur’s
second stroke, they feared separation. Most care homes couldn’t
accommodate couples with different needs.
“We didn’t want an institution. We wanted home, routine, and each other.”
Carelio introduced Gemma — a calm, experienced carer who moved in
full-time. She helped Arthur with mobility and bathroom needs, while also
preparing meals and companionship for Joan.
“She respected our space but became part of our world.”
Now, they both stay in their beloved home, where Arthur’s garden blooms,
and Joan plays her piano each evening.
📍 Type of care: Ongoing live-in care for a couple
💬 Feedback: “It’s the best decision we’ve made in years.”
💞 Legacy: Independence, togetherness, and joy — under one roof

“Mum Was Fine… Until She Wasn’t.” – The Respite Care That Brought Balance Back

Lisa had always prided herself on caring for her 83-year-old mum, June. But when Lisa’s own daughter became unwell, everything unravelled.

“I was burning out. I didn’t want to admit it — but I needed help.”

That’s when she found Carelio. Within 48 hours, a warm, experienced carer named Trisha was introduced. She stayed for five nights, offering personal care, medication reminders, and calm companionship.

“Mum called her a ‘breath of fresh air’. For the first time in months, I slept through the night without guilt.”

Lisa still provides care — but now, she takes regular respite breaks, knowing June is in safe hands.

📍 Type of care: Short-term respite
📆 Booking: 5 nights every other month
🧡 Impact: Gave the family breathing space and restored emotional
balance
