Overnight Care
Overnight care provides the reassurance of having a trained professional stay with you or your loved one throughout the night, offering peace of mind that help is available whenever needed.
We offer two types of overnight care:
Sleep-in care:
Ideal if you need someone present just in case assistance is required, such as helping with toilet visits. In this arrangement, the carer is expected to be woken no more than twice during the night.
Waking night care:
Where the carer remains awake and ready to assist with any needs throughout the night. This option is more suitable if frequent support is required, such as help with toilet breaks, medication, or mobility. During quiet periods, the carer can also take care of light household duties.

Overnight care is essential in enabling individuals to live independently at home for longer, providing support with daily tasks and ensuring someone is always there in case of emergencies. This personalised care service promotes independence, offering a tailored approach to meet each individual’s unique needs.
Overnight care is particularly beneficial for those with dementia, offering specialised support and comfort. Contact us today to discuss how an overnight care plan can help you.
