Compassionate Care for Times You Can’t Be There

Respite care is usually a short-term situation in which care is provided by someone who is not your loved one’s usual carer.

Many service users are usually cared for by a family member – at HH Care Services, we understand that for you to provide the very best care for your loved one, you also need to take good care of yourself. This is why we have reliable, compassionate care assistants and nurses who are fully trained to look after your loved one, giving you the peace of mind you need to take a much-needed break.

About Our Respite Care Services

The respite care services provided by HH Care Services are completely flexible and tailored to the individual needs of our service users. Our care options include:

Short-Term Packages

This is more for one-off respite situations – perhaps you’re looking to take a holiday and unable to take your loved one with you.

Longer-Term Regular Visits

Involving a daily or weekly visit, this package allows caregivers to take a regular break to rest and recharge.

If you are looking for more regular support, our team is trained to support and care for individuals with more complex needs in the comfort of their own homes.

How Respite Care Can Help

Respite care offers multiple benefits, for the person you care for as well as for yourself. Short breaks offer the opportunity to do something a little different and to meet new people.

Reduced Stress
Levels

There can be no denying that family caregiving is stressful, both for the person doing the caring and the person receiving it. Being able to take some time out from each other can help to reduce stress levels and help you maintain a healthy relationship.

Live a
‘Normal’ Life

Respite care allows caregivers to do ‘normal’ everyday things outside of providing care, such as work, study, or even going on holiday. It also provides them with more time to interact with other family, friends, and the wider community.

Introduces
New Stimuli

From the service user’s perspective, respite care allows them to interact with other people, be introduced to new stimuli, and enjoy a change up to their usual routine. They may also be more comfortable discussing aspects of their care with a non-family member.

Frequently Asked Questions About Respite Care
