Overnight care
At Obsidian Homecare, we understand that nighttime can be a challenging time for individuals who need extra support. Our Overnight Care service ensures that clients receive continuous care, reassurance, and assistance throughout the night, giving both them and their families peace of mind.
Whether it's help with mobility, medication reminders, or simply having someone there for comfort, our overnight carers provide attentive and compassionate support, allowing clients to rest comfortably in their own homes.
What is overnight care?
Overnight care is a professional home care service where a trained carer stays with a client throughout the night, providing assistance when needed. This service is particularly beneficial for:
Individuals who wake frequently during the night and require support.
Those with medical conditions that need monitoring overnight.
People recovering from surgery or illness who need extra reassurance.
Clients with dementia or cognitive conditions who may experience confusion or agitation at night.
Families who need a break from nighttime caregiving while ensuring their loved one is safe.
Types of overnight care
We offer two types of overnight care, depending on the level of support required:
Sleeping night care
A carer stays in the home overnight, ready to provide assistance if needed. This is ideal for those who are mostly independent but may require occasional support, such as help getting to the bathroom, medication reminders, or reassurance.
Waking night care
A carer remains awake and alert throughout the night, providing continuous supervision and assistance. This is recommended for individuals who need frequent care due to medical conditions, dementia, or mobility challenges.
