What Is Respite Care?
Respite care is a short-term period of support from a professional in-home carer. Respite care is often sought by those who care for a friend or family member, during periods where they require additional support. A respite carer can provide 24-hour care should this be needed. You might want to consider respite care if you are:
- Planning a holiday and in need of cover while you’re away
- Seeking emergency respite care or urgent respite care due to an unplanned-for situation that is preventing you from caring for your friend or family member
- In need of additional support, because your elderly relative is recovering from illness or an operation
- You’re going away on business and need someone to look after your loved one
- Due to additional work or family commitments, you need a carer to step in for a short period
If you feel that a longer term care solution is required, we recommend seeking the services of a domiciliary carer. This is because your friend or relative will appreciate being able to build up a good rapport with a consistent carer, rather than having multiple short-term carers.
Our Services
Comprehensive care solutions tailored to your needs
