Question: What Is Respite Care?

Respite care provides carers to assist your family and friends for temporary or long term help with ill, ageing or disabled family members.

This service takes place in your own home meaning you lose none of the freedoms or comfort that familiar surroundings provide but will have the extra layer of support and the knowledge that your primary carer can find some time for themselves.

Respite Care from The Great Care Company is a service that encompasses all our care services, be it Personal Care, Social Care or Domestic Care.

Designed to give an existing carer a break from their workload, it provides your family members and friends with a chance to have a little rest and relaxation, safe in the knowledge that you’re still receiving an excellent standard of care. Our respite carers will support you to the exacting standard of care that you are accustomed to, and are available on a short or long-term basis.

The Best Place For Respite Care Home is Where The Help Is

We understand that illness can strike at any time and life can change in an instant.

This will often bring up questions that you don't want to think about and force situations that may be difficult; With your role in life changing to that of a carer without notice.

Private respite care at home provides an affordable and practical alternative to care homes. It keeps your routines the same, allows freedom and security along with benefits like keeping loved ones and pets together as well as allowing family members and friends to visit without pre-booking in.

But most importantly, it allows primary caregivers (who are often family members)  to have a break. 

Our staff work on a one-on-one ratio for carers to patients. This means that you will know your carers and see a familiar face rather than a changing team. It provides reassurance and familiarity when you need it the most.
