This is when a carer is required to sit with you throughout the night making sure that you care needs are met and that you are safe in your own home.This service is from 10 pm to 7 am and can be supported by the mobile night care team.


Sleeping Night Care


This is when you dependency is not so high but you need someone to stay in your home overnight for your peace of mind. This service is also between the hours of 10 pm to 7 am but will be regularly assessed to ensure your ongoing care needs are met.


Our night time services offer

​

  • Continence care
