What is Overnight Care?

Our overnight care service is a tailored type of care that’s designed to support your loved one when you notice that they are struggling to care for themselves and need extra support throughout the night.

If you’re worried about your loved one’s safety or concerned for their health when you’re not there, our Care Professionals can be an extra pair of hands to provide help with health conditions that need regular monitoring or assistance. From dementia, Alzheimer’s, or other chronic illnesses to age-related concerns, we can make sure your loved one feels comfortable and supported in their own home.

Who is Overnight Care suitable for?

Overnight care is suitable for anyone who may be struggling to manage and maintain their current lifestyle, especially during the night.

It’s an ideal solution for those who need frequent assistance during the night, like needing help going to the bathroom or administering medication. Alternatively, your loved one might simply want a comforting and friendly face nearby should they need it. Either way, our team can help put your loved one’s mind at ease and offer peace of mind to the whole family that your loved one is being cared for at all times.
