What Is 'Sleep In Care'

For the sleep ins you will always have your own bed with clean bedding in a private area 'Sleep-in care' is when a professional carer sleeps in your home during the night (for a minimum of 8 hours) so that they can be woken up quickly to respond to any unforeseen needs that you may have during the night. With sleep-in care it is expected that the carer may not need to be woken at all. Within the 32 hours you will be expected to work 1 shifts for 24 hours for E.g. 10am-11pm SLEEP then 7am-10am.
