Understanding Respite Care

Respite care is a short-term solution designed to provide high-quality care for older people while giving family members or caregivers the time to rest and recharge. It can also help people recovering from a hospital stay or those wishing to try out life in a care home.

Our team creates personalised care plans tailored to each guest’s specific needs, ensuring comfort and reassurance throughout their stay. For those searching for temporary respite care for elderly loved ones or respite options for family caregivers, our services provide the perfect balance of support and independence.

Respite Care FAQs

Respite care is available to any individual who requires support on a short-term basis. Respite care provides an opportunity for recovery and assistance with daily living tasks when a caregiver needs a break from their caregiving duties. If you or a loved one needs full-time care, respite care can also be used to trial our home for a few weeks to see if it’s a right fit.

Our care services are available to all of our respite residents, no matter their length of stay. During a resident’s stay, they can expect their own bedroom, meals and refreshments, activities and entertainment, access to our in-house facilities, and support with daily living. Depending on the care needs of the individual, nursing care may also be provided.

The length of stay for respite care will vary on the individual’s needs and the availability of respite beds. At Haddington Care Home, a minimum length of stay of 3 weeks does apply to allow residents to settle into a new home and get the most out of our service – for further information please get in touch with our team.
