Overnight Care
Aged care services aren’t only needed during the day—overnight care is a crucial part of support for many older people in the UK. and their families. On this page, you will find information about overnight care with The Kanrene Health Care Ltd
Why Choose Overnight Care?
Most older people in the UK today prefer to remain in their own homes rather than move into a nursing home or residential care facility. In-home care services and government-funded Home Care Packages make that possible, and often, care plans need to provide 360-degree support to ensure care recipients are safe and comfortable in every facet of life. Overnight care services—sometimes referred to as sleepover support services—are a critical part of the process, particularly for family members and loved ones who have taken on a caregiving role for an elder.
It’s also true that some older people face increased risks at night time, especially with falling due to diminished vision or disorientation. Trip hazards throughout the home can heighten the likelihood of accidents, and falls can result in weeks or months of hospitalisation and rehabilitation. With Kanrene Care, overnight care services begin with a free consultation. During this consultation, one of our skilled registered nurses assesses the care recipient for fall risk and the home for trip hazards. Our recommendations for practical solutions—such as safety rails—can minimise the risk of overnight accidents. However, professional overnight care might be necessary for families seeking additional assistance and peace of mind.
