Overnight Help from Certified Home Health Aides

Caring for a loved one all night long is fine if you don’t have to go to work the next day. But how many adults truly have that luxury of sleeping in? Most people work 9-5 jobs and they have to get up extra early if their commute is long. Fatigue sets in, job performance drops, and emotions run a muck when your body doesn’t get its rest.

One of the biggest challenges with care giving is waking up through all watches of the night. If you have ever taken care of an elderly loved one for at least a few days or a week, you know what we’re talking about. Our sleep patterns are different from our parents or grandparents. They start to nod off early in the evening but then they have insomnia, and most likely they will need your assistance to go use the restroom multiple times throughout the night. You might be lucky if you get at least an hour of REM sleep.

Sleep deprivation should be avoided at all costs. It does not benefit you or your elderly loved one if you sleep over taking care of family. Studies show that people who get no rest have signs of accelerated skin aging, more hanging eyelids, darker under-eye circles, more wrinkles, and swollen eyes. Research also indicates that informal caregivers, such as family and friends, are more prone to caregiver burnout than health professionals, like nurses, certified nurse assistants and trained caregivers. Informal caregivers are faced with concurrent pressures from their own lives and those that they take care of, without much access to available resources in the community.
