Do you provide night-time support for people with lung cancer?
Yes, we offer different types of night-time support depending on what you need. Some people benefit from a waking night carer who stays alert and available throughout the night to help with toileting, repositioning, or anxiety linked to breathlessness. Others prefer a sleeping night, where a carer rests in the home but can be woken if needed. Our overnight care services can be used occasionally, for example after hospital discharge, or on a regular basis. Having support at night often reassures both the person with lung cancer and their family carers, improving rest for everyone.
