Overnight care at home

Types of overnight care:

Sleep-in Service
A sleep-in service provides reassurance and companionship throughout the night. Your Care Professional will stay in your home while you sleep, offering support if needed. This service is perfect for those who do not require frequent care but feel more comfortable knowing someone is there.

This can be especially beneficial for individuals with progressive conditions such as dementia, where confusion, disorientation, or anxiety can arise during the night. Having a familiar presence close by helps ease these feelings, improving overall wellbeing and allowing for a more restful sleep.

The sleep-in service can also include assistance with bedtime routines in the evening and preparing breakfast in the morning, ensuring a smooth and supportive transition into the day.

Waking Night Service
A waking night service means your Care Professional stays awake and on duty throughout the night, providing continuous care and support. This is ideal for those who wake frequently and require assistance, such as:

• Support with bathroom visits
• Personal or continence care
• Regular repositioning after an injury or surgery
• Medication administration
• Guidance in reorienting to the time of day to help return to sleep

At Rivendell Care, our services are always personalised to your needs. Should your circumstances change, we can adjust your overnight care plan to ensure you continue receiving the right level of support. No matter the situation, our Care Professionals are here to help you live well, your way.
