Respite Care
What is respite care?
Respite care is a short term arrangement where we take over the care for you or your loved one so that the usual carer can take a break.
This can be because there is a holiday coming up for the usual carer, there is sickness, other planned absence, or the carer just needs a break to refresh and recharge.
When do I need to think about respite care
Caring is hard physically and emotionally, and everyone needs a break, a lot of people who use us for respite feel guilty that they are taking a break, after having the respite care they feel refreshed and able to love their loved one better having more energy and having taken some time to look after themselves.
They tell us they wish they had done it sooner. You do not have to go away for respite care, you can stay in situ and we can come in and take the load of the duties you have been carrying out.
