What is overnight care?
Overnight care means a carer stays in your loved one's home overnight to provide reassurance and support when it's needed most. They can assist with toileting, repositioning, medication, or simply be there to offer reassurance through the night.
It's a good option when full live-in care isn't required but extra support is needed overnight. Care can be arranged for a few nights after a hospital stay, on regular nights each week, or for short periods. Overnight support can be either sleeping nights or waking nights, depending on your loved one's needs.
Benefits of Overnight care
Peace of mind at night
A professional carer stays overnight so help is available if needed. Families can rest knowing someone capable is there.
Flexible overnight support
Overnight care can be arranged for one night, a few nights a week, or longer periods. It can also support recovery after illness or hospital stays.
Stay at home safely
Overnight care allows people to remain at home rather than moving into residential care when night-time help is the main need.
Support when it matters most
Carers can assist with medication, toileting, repositioning, or reassurance throughout the night.
