Waking nights and sleeping nights
- Sleeping night: the carer sleeps in a spare room and can be woken, normally a time or two at most.
- Waking night: the carer is awake all night, for people who wander, need turning, toileting or medication overnight, or are very likely to fall.
Most agencies charge a flat rate for a sleeping night and price a waking night closer to their hourly rate, so a waking night costs noticeably more. Ask for both prices in writing, including weekend and bank holiday rates.
Funding overnight care
- Council: Leicestershire council assesses free; night-time needs found in the assessment can be met in the care plan.
- Attendance Allowance: the higher rate of £114.60 a week is for people over State Pension age who need help day and night, and savings do not matter.
Getting assessed by Leicestershire council.
When families use overnight care
Common reasons are coming home from hospital, a run of night-time falls, dementia that disturbs sleep, end-of-life care, or simply giving a partner who cares during the day a few unbroken nights each week. Some families book one or two nights a week; others need every night.
