Tailored Overnight Care Services

We understand that no two situations are the same. To provide the best possible support, we offer two distinct levels of overnight care:

Waking Night Care:

Ideal for individuals who require frequent assistance, medication management, or repositioning throughout the night. Our professional carer remains awake and fully alert, providing constant monitoring and immediate help whenever it is needed.

Sleeping Night Care:

Designed for those who generally sleep well but need the peace of mind that someone is nearby. A carer will sleep in a spare room but is on hand to assist up to two times during the night if required.

Seamless Support After Southmead Hospital Discharge

North Bristol is home to Southmead Hospital, a major regional centre. We frequently work with local discharge teams and families to provide immediate overnight support for patients returning home after surgery, a fall, or a sudden illness.

Having a professional carer in place for the first few nights—or weeks—after a hospital stay can significantly reduce the risk of readmission, helping your loved one recover safely and comfortably in familiar surroundings.

Why families choose us for overnight care

From our head office in Thornbury we are able to provide the warm, friendly, compassionate and professional home care that only a locally owned independent company can provide.

  • Rapid Response: We know that care is often needed urgently, especially after a hospital discharge. We can often arrange a care package within 24 hours.
  • Highly Rated: We are rated 9.7/10 by our clients on homecare.co.uk
  • No Long-Term Contracts: We offer truly flexible care that adapts to your changing needs.
  • Local Expertise: We are a proudly local, independent care provider—not a faceless national franchise.
  • CQC Regulated: Our services are closely monitored to ensure the highest standards of safety, compassion, and professionalism.

What our clients say about us

The care professionals are excellent and provide a dependable and respectful service. We have been extremely impressed with the initiative and communication of the carers who are quick to notice and respond to ongoing problems.

P B (Son of Client)
Their help and support have made such a big difference but all of the carer's support is greatly appreciated. When we had an emergency care issue Village Care immediately sorted this out for me and made a stressful situation so much easier. Thank you.
F K (Daughter of Client)
I feel their care team go above and beyond the call of duty. I was really nervous when I first registered with them because of some of my friends past experiences with an agency. Village care has proved me completely wrong they are a kind caring, supportive agency and I'm very glad I signed up with them.
Client
Just wanted to say thank you Vanessa for your support and care even in such a short time that you were with us. You made an impression on all of us. So many thanks. Very grateful to you.
L, (Daughter of Client)
Great service and fast response. They have been very helpful and kind to my father and the house was very clean, as I left it. The managers are very quick in responding to my emails.
LD, (Son of Client)
I have been using The Village Care Group since I came out of the hospital and I am extremely pleased with the quality of staff provided and the communication between myself and the company. I have a large number of visits per week to assist me in my home and would not be able to manage without their help.
Rupert, (Client)
