Respite Care
Short stays planned around what you enjoy, so everyone gets a proper rest.
Respite Care
A change of scene for you, a real break for your carers
Respite is not time away from your life. It is time in a different part of it. We arrange short stays where the routine is still yours, the workers are people you already know, and the days are filled with things you actually want to do.
Short Term Accommodation can be funded for up to 14 days at a time, and Medium Term Accommodation is there if you need somewhere settled while longer-term housing is sorted out. We handle the booking, the transport and the day-to-day, so the people who usually care for you can rest properly.
What is included in our respite program
Every stay is planned with you first, so nothing about it arrives as a surprise.

- Emergency and crisis respite
- Personal care throughout your stay
- Meals, groceries and domestic help
- Community outings and recreation
- Transport to, from and during the stay
- In-home respite when you would rather stay put
