My Homecare Haringey is providing families across Haringey and North London with two forms of overnight home care: sleep-in support for people who may occasionally need help during the night, and waking-night care for individuals who require a carer to remain awake and available throughout the night.

The service is delivered by My Homecare Haringey, a Care Quality Commission-registered homecare provider based at Blighty Workspace Tottenham, 266 High Road, London N15 4AJ. The CQC currently lists the service with an overall rating of Good, including Good ratings for safety, effectiveness, caring, responsiveness and leadership.

For a sleep-in arrangement, a carer stays in the home overnight and is available when assistance is needed.

For people who wake frequently, have experienced a decline in health or need ongoing support throughout the night, My Homecare Haringey also provides a dedicated overnight service in which the carer remains awake and alert.

The distinction allows the care arrangement to reflect the person's actual overnight needs rather than using the same level of support for every client.

Overnight care can form part of a wider care package and can also be combined with daytime homecare services. My Homecare Haringey states that its services can be adjusted as a person's needs develop. In addition to overnight stays and sleep-in services, the provider offers daily care visits, respite care, live-in care, personal care and specialist support.

Before a care arrangement is established, the team discusses the person's circumstances and develops a Care Support Plan based on the assistance required.

My Homecare Haringey states that an initial care discussion with an experienced qualified manager normally takes around two hours, giving the individual and family an opportunity to discuss appropriate care interventions and available services.

For live-in care arrangements, the provider also describes a structured process that includes an in-person home assessment, allocation of a primary carer, background checks, carer matching and a Meet and Greet before the package begins. Its published information states that carers are trained, experienced, insured and have undergone police and background checks.

Overnight support may be considered when a person is comfortable living at home but requires assistance that cannot always be provided through scheduled daytime visits.

The service can be relevant to people who require support during nighttime routines, wake repeatedly during the night or need a professional carer available for assistance and reassurance.

My Homecare Haringey also offers overnight respite arrangements for families and unpaid carers who need temporary cover. Its respite service can range from several hours to overnight stays, weekends or longer periods.

“Overnight care is not the same for every person. Some people simply need the reassurance of knowing that a carer is nearby, while others require someone to remain awake and available throughout the night. The important part is understanding the individual’s needs first and building the care arrangement around them.” — Egle Sakaliene, Registered Manager, My Homecare Haringey
