Overnight Home Care Support

TGCA provides overnight in-home support when night time assurance is required. It is a cost-effective and flexiable alternative to placing your loved one into a residential respite facility.

Clients can rest assured that a carer is sleeping in the next bedroom, available if needed on a low dependency basis. You can leave written or provide verbal instructions on commencement of the overnight stay. In the morning, expect handover of how the night went, information on what the carer has noticed. TGCA is about delivering seamless support.

Overnight Tasks

Night time support level vary and may include:

Reassurance or emotional support
Personal or continence care
Waking up to take medication
Being re-positioned or turned in bed
Toileting supervision/safety
Temperature control
Blood sugar checks
Staying hydrated

When booking the overnight stay, a care requirement assessment will be completed to ensure that overnight support is delivered in a safe manner. Higher levels of support may require active overnight care.

Who is it for?

Overnight support is ideal for the person who lives alone and wants to remain in their own home. It can also provide peace of mind for family members - to know that their loved one has someone in the house at night to monitor and care for them as needed.

Sleepover support is also a way to provide respite for the regular carer - who can enjoy a night out or away knowing that their loved one is well cared for. TGCA provides overnight support for NDIS participants and people who return home from hospital following surgery.
