Who does respite care in Leicester benefit?

Respite care can be a great option for somebody who requires short-term care, maybe to provide cover for a main carer or if you just need temporary support at home. By choosing respite care, families can have the peace of mind that their loved one is being taken care of, whilst they take a break or need extra support after a hospital stay, illness or injury.

Respite care can be beneficial to older people in many scenarios:

  • If you or a main carer are going on holiday and you wish to arrange care for your loved one during this time
  • If somebody is going away themselves and would like the support of a care professional whilst they are on holiday
  • You may be attending a family event like a wedding and would like the help of a care professional whilst you are there
  • You have been in hospital and require short-term support to get back home and recover
  • You have become unwell and need some extra support to get back on your feet
