How overnight care is priced. Overnight Care is priced according to the hours and the type of support required. Contact Luxuricare for a tailored quotation.
The two variables are how long the cover runs — six hours, eight hours, ten hours or another arrangement — and whether it is a waking night or a sleeping night. A waking night costs more than a sleeping night, because the carer is awake and working throughout. We do not publish a fixed figure because quoting one would be misleading.
Where a sleeping night becomes a waking night. A sleeping night includes up to three occasions of being woken. If assistance is required more than three times, the night is treated as a waking night and additional charges apply. We tell you this before care starts rather than after a difficult night, and the additional cost is confirmed in your quotation following an assessment.
Which type is appropriate is a safety question as much as a cost one. If someone genuinely needs support several times a night, we will say so rather than quoting for a sleeping night because it is cheaper.
