Why Overnight Care may be right for you
Our overnight care is always shaped around the individual’s needs, routines, and preferences. Some clients require regular help with toileting, repositioning, or medication, while others simply feel safer knowing someone is there if needed. Evening care may include help with washing, changing into nightwear, and settling into bed. In the morning, we’re there to help with breakfast, mobility support, or getting ready for the day ahead. We aim to provide comfort without intrusion; support that feels familiar, respectful, and completely personalised, right down to how someone takes their tea.

Very friendly and efficient staff and service. Carers are willing to please and bend over backwards to supply meals, companionship, personal care if needed and help with day to day tasks. They are always there to listen and cheer me up on my down days.AM, Client
Home Instead are excellent at what they do. The carers who have looked after my Aunt have been punctual, attentive and caring at all times. Office staff have also been very helpful and easy to contact. We could not have wished for better service.Brian, Nephew of Client
The care companions have been so much more than carers. They’ve become like Dad’s friends, friends who cook, clean and shop but who also sit and chat, really listen and do those little extra special things that make him feel valued. I know Dad has been pleased. For my sisters and me, it’s given us peace of mind to have found an organisation who doesn’t just pay lip service to caring.Sarah, daughter of Client
Our carer is an amazing young woman. We look at her as one of the family, and we couldn’t do without her. On a personal view, she is my only contact with the outside world, (of course we see our family very often) and they think she is a “star”!JB, wife of Client
