Hear It From Our Dementia Care Client’s Family

AT’s Daughter

"My dad receives fabulous care from Lotus Home Care. They come in using the key-safe, wake and cloth him and provide breakfast. They also pop in during the day and help on his night call. As far as I am concerned, this maintains his independence and gives us peace of mind"

Lotus Home Care Client

"I switched my mum's provider to Lotus Home Care as a neighbour was in awe of the care she received from them and the previous provider my mum had was inadequate on all levels. My mum has dementia and needs around the clock care. From my first meeting with Lotus, I knew that my mum was going to be in safe hands. They devised a care plan especially for my mum and senior management come out to do regular checks to ensure that care exceeds expectations. I am always kept up to date with my mum's health. The compassion and love truly shows in the carers and I cannot recommend them enough!"

Do you accommodate overnight calls?
At Lotus Home Care we strive to provide a service that suits all individuals. Delivering a good care service is not always just during the day, this includes providing a high-quality service during night time hours as well.
We provide waking nights, where a carer will be alert to any care duties and available for the full night-time period to assist with care. We also provide sleeping nights; this is a great service if yourself or family member needs support during the night but only occasionally.
This also gives individuals the reassurance that there is someone else there for them if needed, it also gives relatives that peace of mind.
- Overnight care is when a carer stays in your home overnight to attend to your normal activities of daily living.
- Care needs don’t stop at the end of the working day and fortunately for many who need help, neither does caregiving.
- Having access to trained staff through the night is essential for many complex medical conditions or when an individual is recuperating from an illness.
- For families, knowing that a loved one has to spend the night alone can be a concern.
- If a situation occurs during in the small hours, and no-one is present to act quickly, it could easily lead to an emergency situation.
- Loved ones may not always have a personal care alarm to send an alert for assistance, but with professional support present, such fears are put to bed.
- The primary benefit of overnight care is that individuals who may be anxious or lonely are able to rest well and get a good night’s sleep.
