About the service

What is Respite Care?

Respite care is a type of temporary care service designed to provide relief and support to primary carers who are responsible for the ongoing care of a loved one. It offers carers the opportunity to take a break, attend to personal matters, or simply rest and recharge, knowing that their loved one is receiving quality care in their absence. Respite care can be arranged for various durations, ranging from a few hours to several days or weeks, depending on the carer’s needs and preferences. With respite care from Fond healthcare, you have the choice of having either visiting care or live-in care, depending on the level of support you require.

Live in Care

Our carers will come to live with you in your own home to provide around-the-clock assistance and support. This arrangement allows individuals who require continuous care and supervision to remain in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes

Visiting Care

Our carers will visit service users in their own homes to provide specific assistance and support on a scheduled basis. Unlike live-in care where the carer resides with the service user full-time, visiting care involves carers travelling to the service user's home for designated periods.

Respite care, tailored to your needs

respite care plays a vital role in sustaining and enhancing the quality of life for both carers and service users. By offering temporary relief and professional support, respite care services contribute to the overall health, happiness, and resilience of families facing the challenges of care providing. Here are key aspects and benefits of respite care:

Temporary Relief

Respite care offers carers a temporary break from their duties, allowing them to step away and take time for themselves without compromising the well-being of their loved one.

Flexibility

Respite care services can be tailored to meet the specific needs and preferences of the carer and service user. Care can be provided at home.

Support for Service Users

Respite care allows care recipients to interact with new carers, engage in social activities, and receive personalised care and attention in the absence of their primary carer.

Stress Reduction

Respite care alleviates stress and anxiety associated with the constant demands of providing care, enabling carers to return to their roles with renewed energy and a refreshed outlook.
