Night Care
Dignified, dedicated and discreet night care in your own home.
Feel safe and supported with a care professional on-hand to help you throughout the night.
What is night time care?
Night-time care covers a wide range of support and assistance provided through the night.
It can support with a variety of needs from getting ready for bed, help reaching the bathroom, assistance when taking meditation or a comforting presence on-hand to help you feel safe.
We understand how important it is that you feel safe and supported overnight when you are living independently at home.
A night-time care professional can provide the comfort and reassurance you need, whilst also assisting you with any mobility or medical needs if required.
Our overnight care and support is ideal for those who are elderly or dealing with short- or long-term illness. We carefully match our dedicated care professionals with you and develop a personalised care plan based on your needs to ensure that your needs are always met in the way you prefer.
Types of night care
There are several different types of night care to choose from, each one suited to a variety of different needs.
Some people require overnight care where their care professional stays with them until the next morning, whereas others require nightly visits.
Nightly Visits
Nightly visits are one of the most common types of night care.
A care professional comes to your home to support you as you get ready for and into bed.
Waking Night Service
Sleep-in Service
With a sleep-in service, a care professional sleeps at your home with you overnight. This is a great option for anyone who feels safer and more comfortable knowing there is someone there with them throughout the night. This reassurance is perfect for those with dementia who can often feel scared, anxious, confused or disorientated during the night. A sleep-in carer can also support you with getting ready for bed and assist you when you wake up in the morning.
As with all types of care we offer, our night care support is always tailored to you and your individual needs. We ensure that we get to know you and understand your unique challenges and concerns first before putting together a tailored care plan designed just for you.
