Respite care
What is respite care?
Respite care provides temporary assistance for times when your regular caregivers are unavailable or you need a bit of extra help.
Respite care is a temporary solution provided by trained caregivers for various types of care, including assisted living, residential care, various forms of dementia care, and nursing care. It is well-suited for situations when the regular caregiver requires a break or when short-term support is needed.
At Haverhill Home Care, we consistently offer respite care for individuals in diverse circumstances, all of which are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Some common situations where people may require respite care include:
- After an accident
- Hospital discharge
- Recovering from surgery
- Covering a regular carer
- Specialist care needed
