RESPITE CARE
Why respite care?
Our Respite Service is aimed at alleviating carer strain for relatives, friends and informal carers who often put their own needs aside to look after a loved one. We can provide short-term and as and when required solutions to give you a break from your caring role.
When might respite care be required?
Respite Care is a sensible option when you need your loved on to be cared for whilst you take a break or go on holiday. It is also essential when you need to attend hospital visits or admissions. We can provide highly trained staff to take over all care and support whilst you are away, giving you peace of mind that your loved one is safe and well cared for.
What are the benefits of respite care?
- Allows time to rest – caring for a loved one can be challenging and tiring. Taking the time to rest is great for your physical and mental health, allowing you to better care for your loved one in the future.
- Gives back personal time – your cup must be full before you can fill up others. Buying back personal time gives you the chance to practice self-care and do the hobbies you enjoy.
- Prevents social isolation – when caring full-time, you may not have time for friends and family, which can be incredibly damaging to your mental health.
- New companionship – respite care gives your loved one a fresh break too, allowing them to make a new companion and enjoy their company.
