Can I Have a Live-In Caregiver or Domestic Help of My Own Choosing in My Unit?
Why this needs a direct, specific question
Many families have an existing relationship with a maid, nurse or caregiver they'd like to bring along, and some operators restrict or ban outside caregivers entirely — often because it competes with their own paid care packages. This isn't disclosed as a standard FAQ item in most sales conversations, so ask directly: can I bring my own caregiver or domestic help to live in or work in my unit, are there restrictions on their hours or access to common areas, and is there an additional fee for allowing this?

Where a decision involves a substantial sum, inheritance, tax or contractual dispute, get advice from a lawyer or chartered accountant who can look at your specific documents.
