As much as anyone would like to be able to say they’re capable of providing the level of care necessary for a loved one at all times, the truth is that everyone needs a break or some time off at some point
Typically, there are two key forms of residential aged care services available for carers needing a little time away from their duties: residential respite care, where the carer’s client stays in an aged care facility, or in home respite care services. Both options are intended to blend seamlessly into your existing care routines so as not to startle or confuse the client with any sudden changes to their care management.
Deciding which is the most suitable option largely depends on the level of care required for the client (e.g. standard care, dementia home care) as well as the circumstances in which you as carer will be taking time off (e.g. health reasons, overseas holiday, work commitments).
Samkay Health offers aged residential care accommodation at Grace Villa in Greensborough. It is conveniently located near Epping, Mill Park and Bundoora. To learn more about residential aged care from one of the leading aged care providers, contact us using the details below.
The alternative option to in home residential respite care is to temporarily relocate the cared for person into long term residential care accommodation
This is where residential aged care and residential respite care services become so important. Offered by Grace Villa in Greensborough, residential respite care gives the client’s primary carer some much needed time away to relax, recharge and ensure their own life is in order.
Sometimes caring for someone with dementia requires knowing when to pass the responsibility of day-to-day care to professionals who are trained
and experienced in caring for dementia patients.
