The Science of Calm: Why Nighttime Support Matters

Research in geriatric psychology shows that circadian rhythm disruption can increase anxiety and cognitive fatigue. Overnight caregivers provide sensory stability — quiet lighting, predictable tone, gentle pacing — to help the nervous system re-enter safety mode.

At 24 HOUR Home Care NJ, we train our aides to use micro-cues of empathy, tone, and timing derived from neuroscience and behavioral science — creating an environment where both body and mind can rest.

    •    Help with mobility, transfers, and restroom visits
    •    Monitoring for falls, wandering, or confusion
    •    Medication and hydration reminders
