Respite Care Services at Hilgay Care Home
We understand the importance of family time and how difficult it can be to care for an elderly relative, so our respite care services provide a welcome break for families who need time away from caregiving. Our carers are experienced in providing care for elderly people and our goal is to make sure that everyone feels comfortable and safe during their stay with us. We also offer a range of activities such as art classes, music therapy, reminiscence work and more.
Respite care helps both residents and their carers by giving them time away from caregiving. It also helps carers to take a break, recharge, and return feeling refreshed and ready for caregiving duties once more. So, if you require respite for a month, or longer, we are happy to help.
