Respite Care

Respite care is temporary care for a loved one that allows the primary caregiver time away from their responsibilities. We think it’s important for their continuity of care for them to be in the comfort of their own home, to avoid unnecessary stress caused by breaking from their routine. We understand that the care needs of every individual can be unpredictable, so as a family-run, local business we’re able to offer the flexibility to step in with little notice, giving the primary caregiver some well-earned relief. This may involve anything from companionship, cooking or cleaning through to personal care, medication management or more complex support for specialist conditions. By having a trusted care assistant support your loved one you will have that much needed time to take care of yourself. You can tend to your personal errands, have some time out of the house and recharge your batteries both mentally and physically. This added support can help you to take care of yourself, meaning you can take better care of your loved one. Short breaks can be of great benefit to not just yourself, but also the person you care for. They offer the opportunity to do something a bit different and the chance to meet new people. Our Respite Care service is flexible and is tailored to your individual needs. Our care options include short-term packages i.e. for example if you are looking to take a holiday and longer-term regular visits i.e. allowing you to take a regular break to rest and recharge such as a daily or weekly visit
