Waking nights
This is where the carer is awake all during the night and is on call. They are always alert and they make sure the client is asleep, resting or safe.
The waking nights carer would then be expected to sleep during the day so they can perform their duties to the best of their ability.
Sleeping nights
This is where a carer will be asleep during the night, but on call for support. Your live-in carer who is working at your home during the day will be able to provide sleeping nights care. This is the perfect choice if you want peace of mind but your loved one doesn’t often need help in the night. The Care Manager who undertakes the care needs assessment will advise on the level of support your loved one needs.
