Personalised Support for Overnight Care in Richmond
Caring for an elderly person is often a challenging experience. We all want to do the best for our loved ones, making sure that they are well looked after and supported. However, caring for the elderly, whether relatives or others close to us, can take its toll on our own physical and emotional well being, particularly if it impacts our own sleep and relationships. This is where Caremark comes in to support with Overnight Care services in Richmond.
Who needs night-care?
Night time presents particular safety issues for elderly people, especially those suffering from mobility problems or physical limitations following surgery. If you’re caring for a vulnerable person, you may find that you’re needing to get up numerous times during the night, to help your loved one go to the toilet, or simply to provide companionship when they’re struggling to stay asleep.
Additionally, those with dementia, Alzheimer’s or mental health problems often need additional support and supervision as they may become confused and need reassurance, particularly in the dark, when the unfamiliar world can seem particularly troubling.
How We Can Help with Overnight Care Support in Richmond
Without regular, unbroken sleep, your own physical and mental health is likely to suffer, leaving you less able to support your loved one and navigate the personal challenges of caring for an elderly relative. Moreover, you may find that the burden of caring for them during the night interferes with your ability to care for others, such as younger children.
If this scenario sounds familiar, then it might be time to consider seeking Caremark’s overenight care support in Richmond. One of the main benefits of night care is that it will allow you to sleep soundly and recover your emotional and physical strength, safe in the knowledge that your loved one is in the best possible hands during the night.
Types of care
The type of overnight care support in Richmond your loved one needs depends on their specific requirements. Here’s what we offer:
Waking care
Elderly people who need more extensive or frequent support are better supported by the waking night services we can arrange for you.
Regular incidents of wakefulness and confusion are best supported by a waking care assistant. Those who struggle with distinguishing between day and night-time may feel particularly unsettled, making a waking care assistant the most suitable choice.
If the elderly person needs specialist or more frequent medication, then waking care is the ideal choice to ensure that your loved one is appropriately supported. Those who require palliative care to remain comfortable at home will almost certainly need the level of attention provided by a waking night-time care assistant.
Sleeping care
Sleeping care is appropriate for elderly people who require support with basic needs such as going to the toilet, administering pain relief, or emotional support if they wake up during the night. A care assistant will look after your loved one when needed, helping them with mobility, medication or just settling them down if they are restless, anxious or confused.
Having a sleeping care assistant available to look after your loved one can provide peace of mind if you have recently noticed that your loved one is now struggling to take care of themselves during the night, or if you have been attending to these needs yourself.
Getting Started
Working with one of our carefully chosen night-time care assistants is a good way to ensure that your elderly loved ones are looked after, while allowing you to get the restful sleep that will help support your own wellbeing.
While, at first, it can be difficult to hand over the care of a loved one to someone else, you’re likely to find that accepting Caremark’s support with overnight care services in RIchmond is in everyone’s best interests, supporting a healthy lifestyle for the whole family.
