Overnight care provides security, reassurance, and peace of mind for individuals and their loved ones.
During the night hours, those who receive care can often have trouble in resting, causing broken sleep patterns, which aggravate degenerative conditions such as dementia, and have a detrimental impact on wellbeing and the general welfare of those living with them.
For those who live with conditions, such as dementia and Alzheimer’s, these concerns are quite common. A service built upon personal experience; we understand the frailties that conditions like this can cause. Sundowning is a term that the world has become more familiar with, where individuals (usually within their elder ages) end up disoriented and confused, from around late afternoon through the evening and the night. Often, this is worsened by the change of clocks that occur in the spring and autumn.
Overnight care provides continuous, personalised support throughout the night hours, supporting your loved one to feel reassured, safe, and comfortable.
Depending on personal choice and care needs, overnight care can be offered in different ways:
Waking night care is when a compassionate home care professional provides overnight care but is awake during the night-time hours, always on hand to monitor your welfare and respond appropriately to any changes in your health, providing the support you need to remain confident and comfortable at home.
Sleeping night care is when a professional, compassionate carer stays overnight within your home to provide you with reassurance, peace of mind and security, supporting your wellbeing. Your expert carer is always there and on hand to monitor your health, providing all the support you need.
The cost of care for people wanting to receive an overnight home care service is often the same as, or cheaper, than what you would pay for residential care, with the benefit of receiving one-to-one, personalised, tailored and person-led care within the comfort of your own home.
For couples, the cost of overnight home care is cheaper than moving into residential care, where you would be expected to pay for two packages, and two bedrooms. With overnight home care, couples have the reassurance of staying together whilst receiving the support they need in their comfort of their own home.
