Why Overnight Care may be right for you
As the day winds down, care needs often increase. That’s why our overnight support is always tailored to each individual’s routines and preferences. Our Care Professionals assist with bedtime hygiene, changing into nightwear, medication, and any mobility needs before settling in. During the night, they may help with repositioning, bathroom visits, or simply offering gentle reassurance. In the morning, they’re there to help start the day with dignity and ease. Every detail, from lighting preferences to a warm drink before bed, is considered, making overnight care feel natural, supportive, and deeply personal.

The excellent care my Mum received from all the caregivers allowed her to be in her own home for longer than we could have hoped. The sensitivity shown to her growing needs through dementia was greatly appreciated. We had real peace of mind that she was well looked after by a regular team of carers. The communication with office staff certainly made things run smoothly.Fiona D - daughter of client in Southport
Home Instead have been an absolute Godsend to our family. All through lockdown they never let us down. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The staff in the office and on the ground are always helpful, supportive, reliable, caring and respectful. I would highly recommend their care.Linda T - Daughter of client in Southport.
Home Instead Southport have proved invaluable over the last two and a half years. Dad always wanted to stay in the house that he moved to in 1971 – the home in which he and Mum raised the family. With the support of his lovely Caregivers, Dad managed to do this until the week before he died – aged 98. I have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead Southport.K R - Daughter of client in Southport.
The service my father received form Home Instead Southport was life-changing. Since he started receiving a morning visit each day, his physical and mental health has markedly improved, so after two years of care, he seems two years younger. The care was reliable and tailored to what he needed, and the carers were kind, competent and fun.G C - Son of client in Southport.
It was wonderful, it was a load off my mind. Thank you very much.L M - Client in Southport

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.
