Live In Respite Care
Do you need a break? Take one with the reassurance and peace of mind, knowing your loved one is cared for and enjoying life.
What Is Respite Care?
Respite care is short-term care used as an alternative to a person’s usual arrangements or when the unexpected happens.
There are several reasons you might be considering needing some respite care.
- Going away and worried about your loved one in your absence? We’re here to step in and help.
- Are you primarily responsible for caring for your loved one and need a break? Take one with reassurance and peace of mind, knowing your loved one is cared for and enjoying life too.
- Need short term care when things change unexpectedly or you’re recovering from an operation or injury, we’re here for as long as you need us until you regain your independence.
Sometimes if a family member is providing the care and support needed, they may need a break to recharge their batteries. Caring for a loved one is a huge responsibility and the dedication of being a primary carer can take its toll at times and tiredness can creep in. They may find themselves unwell or have to undergo a planned operation. This can all be a little overwhelming at times and there is an uncertainty of what the best thing to do is.
Live in Care are here to help and be the safety net you can call upon.
You can step back and trust our short-term live-in care service.
Respite care can be planned in advance when you need temporary relief, or we are here to help in an emergency.
The respite care we provide is cost-effective, enables independence, and is organised on the person’s terms with the one-on-one support they need to remain independent at home.
Live in Care will be there for any future respite care needs
After providing respite care once, Live in Care will be there for any future needs, with a full care plan already in place that only has to be reviewed to include any changes. Many family carers see this positively and have commented that knowing we are always there in the background, ready to step in, alleviates so much worry and eases the responsibility.
Mum’s carers have become part of the family, they’ve gotten to know Mum and her needs so well and are exactly what the family were hoping for and more.
Thank you so much, you have saved our lives!
I feel so reassured that I can go away knowing Mum is in the safe hands of the same carer when I take a holiday or attend a family special occasion. Thank you again – you run an amazing service.
We tried other companies first but there were so many changes, and it all became too much for Mum, not knowing who would be there to help her. Since we chose Live in Care, she’s been so much happier.
I’m a nurse and I couldn’t have provided the care, comfort and support my father needed in his last days of his life without the live-in carer. She was so professional, skilled, and kind and this helped to ensure that Dad was comfortable and peaceful in his last few days. Nothing was too much trouble.
