About overnight care
A carer in the home overnight. With a sleep-in, they sleep there and help if needed. With a waking night, they stay awake the whole time.
Questions families ask
What's the difference between a sleep-in and a waking night?
With a sleep-in, the carer goes to bed and gets up only if needed. With a waking night, they stay awake and alert all night. Sleep-ins usually cost less.
Does the carer need their own room?
For a sleep-in, a bed in a private room is usual. For a waking night, a comfortable chair and somewhere to make a drink.
How do we know if we need overnight care?
Common signs are frequent calls in the night, falls, wandering, or a family carer who is exhausted. The GP or a council assessment can help you decide.
