The Doncaster Overnight Care team, here to help every step of the way
Overnight care means having a trusted Care Professional stay in your loved one’s home through the night, providing either sleeping night support – where they’re there if needed – or waking night care for those who require more comprehensive assistance. This might mean help getting ready for bed, support with mobility or personal care during the night, medication reminders, or assistance getting up and dressed in the morning. For families in Doncaster, Bessacarr, Rossington and the surrounding area, overnight care often becomes essential after a hospital discharge, when someone’s confidence has taken a knock, or when conditions like dementia or Parkinson’s mean extra support is needed during the night hours. It can be temporary while someone recovers, or ongoing for as long as it’s needed.

Why Overnight Care may be right for you
We tailor overnight care around each person’s routine and needs. Some clients need regular checks and repositioning through the night, others require help getting to the bathroom safely, and some simply feel more secure knowing someone’s there. Our local Care Professionals also support the evening and morning routines – helping with showering, getting changed, preparing meals, and making sure medication is taken at the right times. Because our team gets to know your loved one’s preferences and patterns, they can spot if something’s not quite right and respond quickly, whether that’s a change in mobility, signs of discomfort, or confusion that needs gentle reassurance.
What we do to care for your loved ones
We offer two types of home care: hourly care, where we visit at set times, or live-in care, where a carer resides in the home. Both are overseen by our care management team and delivered by compassionate Care Professionals. Each care package is made up of a unique mix of services to meet your needs.
Companionship care
We carefully match Care Professionals with clients to ensure a meaningful bond is created.
Home help & meal prep
Keeping the home environment clean, safe, and nourishing with home-cooked meals.
Personal care
Assistance with bathing, dressing, and personal hygiene, always respecting the dignity of your loved one.
Mobility support
Helping your loved one move around their home safely, including transfers and positioning.
Health appointment management
We support you to attend those important health appointments.
Community engagement
We enable you to continue to do the things you enjoy, be it a visit to the garden centre or your local art group.
Transportation
Assistance getting you from A to B, whether it be to go visit a friend or help with your shopping.
Medication management
Ensuring medicines are taken correctly and on time, supporting overall health.
Home Instead looked after my mother for 7 years. Mum had dementia and chronic osteoporosis which lead to her health deteriorating considerably over this time. The care team itself was wonderful. They took so much time and effort to look after her; taking her flowers, chocolate, games and cakes. I would strongly recommend them.JS- Daughter of the client
Home Instead Doncaster have been very good in terms of providing excellent care for my mother. They have always been reliable and adapted to changes we have needed to make. The carers have engaged well with my mum and have been very warm and caring. My mum has enjoyed having them.CP- Daughter of a client
I contacted Home Instead to arrange care for my father who needed help with having a shower and getting dressed. After an initial meeting to assess my father’s needs, a career was assigned. The career always arrived at the time agreed and the care my father received was of high quality. I would certainly recommend this company.Karen- Daughter of a client
Tailored Overnight Care in Doncaster
Suzanne W shared on homecare.co.uk how our Doncaster team supported her parents with flexibility and care, noting that “whenever there was a need for additional carers, the admin team did everything they could to arrange the extra carers and nothing was too much trouble even at very short notice or out of hours.” That responsiveness is particularly important with overnight care, where needs can change suddenly or families need urgent support. C M also valued how carers “recognised when she wasn’t herself and let us know,” giving families reassurance that their loved one was being properly looked after even when they couldn’t be there themselves.

Trusted Overnight Care from experienced home care professionals in Doncaster
Our Care Professionals receive specialist training in overnight care, covering everything from safe moving and handling to supporting clients with dementia, managing medications, and recognising early signs of health changes. Our lovely Operations Manager, Jade Ebden, with her extensive background in care, and Nina Hanson ensure every Care Professional is fully prepared and supported throughout each placement. We also work closely with GPs and district nurses across Doncaster, so if medical support is needed during the night or early morning, we can coordinate that quickly and efficiently.
Additional support and activities in Doncaster
Our connections with local healthcare providers mean overnight care is never delivered in isolation. We liaise regularly with GPs, pharmacists and community nurses to make sure care plans are up to date and any changes are communicated promptly. Beyond clinical support, we’re also active in the community through our Sporting Friendship Group at Knights Rugby Club in Armthorpe and Friendship Lunches at The Highwayman and Woodfield Farm. Even when someone needs overnight care, we can still help them stay connected to the community during the day, supporting a full and meaningful life at home.

Is Home Instead Doncaster a locally owned home care organisation?
Home Instead Doncaster is one of 250 locally owned offices that collectively form Home Instead UK. Together, we care for 16,000 clients, delivering one million hours of home care each month. This unique combination of community-focused local offices and the resources of a national network enables us to provide personalised, relationship-led care while leading research and innovation that is transforming the experience of aging. Our services include companionship care, personal care, specialist care (including dementia, palliative, and Parkinson’s), and live-in care.
What is a sleep-in service?
A Care Professional sleeps at your home overnight. This is a good option for those who don’t require much nightly supervision, but who would feel safer and more comfortable knowing there is someone sleeping nearby should they need help.
What is a waking night service?
A Care Professional is awake and on duty in your home throughout the night. This is the best option for those who require more support or assistance during the night, such as with administering medication, bathroom visits, repositioning, or other issues.
Why choose overnight care at home?
Having care at home overnight means that you or your loved one can feel safe and supported within their own home, no matter what time of day or night it is. Knowing there is someone nearby helps provide peace of mind during the nighttime hours, resulting in a better night’s sleep.
