OVERNIGHT CARE
Although both our standard live-in care and advanced live-in care options allow for some degree of night-time support, our dedicated nightly support care option is for those who primarily need care during the night, rather than during the day.
The carer lives in the property and is on hand during the night to assist with any requirements. This might range from toileting assistance to simply providing the reassurance that someone is awake, alert, and making certain that you’re sleeping safe, sound, and secure, providing the ultimate peace of mind.
We are mindful of the impact that a waking service will have on our carers’ daytime support. Therefore the carer wouldn’t then also be expected to cover daytime care duties as well. We would typically recommend an additional carer for this if required.

Overnight care can ease yours or a loved one’s anxiety about being alone at night. But it also helps in many other ways, including:
-
Support with administering medication through the night
-
Assisting with toilet breaks
-
Regular help for changing position in bed, particularly after an operation or injury
-
Help with complex care needs with the help of our nursing-led team
-
Better overall health by being able to rest through the night
-
Someone on hand for those living with progressive conditions such as a type of dementia
-
Extra peace of mind for your family knowing someone is on-hand
