Why choose Elder for overnight care?

Or you can choose a waking live-in night carer, or two carers working in shifts to provide 24/7 assistance. Whatever option you choose, every independent carer we work with undergoes thorough checks – from their background, right through to their character, and you’ll always have the freedom to select the carer you like best.
