Respite care visits
What are respite care visits?
If you’re supported in your own home by a caregiver who’s a friend or family member, it can be tough on your relationship.
You may worry that they are giving up too much of their own time or even work and education to care for you. Respite services are available to give you and your family peace of mind enabling you to stay in your own home.
Our short break respite visits give both you and your carer the time out you deserve, while still giving you the personal and dignified home care you need. The different types of short-term respite care we can offer as part of your care plan are unique visits and regular visits.
Unique visits
If your regular carer needs to take a one-off break then we can step in with temporary care while they step out. Our expert carers will carry out your daily routine of care needs just how you like it.
Regular visits
A little time out on a regular basis will help you independently pursue your own interests and help keep you and your carer feeling motivated and refreshed. Just let us know when and for how long and we can make a plan to set up your respite break.
Resetting the balance: Mr X’s experience
Mr X was doing a fantastic job of caring for his wife however he found he was putting his own hobbies and wellbeing on the back burner. By arranging regular respite carer visits, Mr X felt confident going back to his local sports club and socialising with others.
This enabled him to continue with an active part of his life which helped him both physically and mentally. He could enjoy his ‘time out’ whilst knowing his wife was being well cared for by our team. His life balance had been restored.
