Respite care is there to support carers and participants for short periods of time. It can give you the chance to meet new people and give you both a break. What respite looks like depends on the participant’s situation; it can be available for a few days, a few weeks or a few hours. Respite is often planned in advance – for example, if your carer has an appointment to attend or is planning a trip.
Providing both short-term accommodation and in-home respite care services, Carewell Healthcare Pty Ltd supports individuals living with disability and carers to enjoy greater well-being and more independence. Not just respite, participants get comprehensive support when they connect with us, like travel support, mental health support, social and community participation, and more.
