Get in touch with us today to find out what our respite care services can do for you. Team Addilyn can talk you through our relief service and help you start planning for some well-deserved time off.
We provide respite care and support to people who are caring for a loved one, a relative, a friend or neighbour.
If you are a carer looking after a family member, you probably don't get much respite from your duties. Although helping a loved one is rewarding, it's also extremely demanding. A few days rest can recharge your energy levels and enthusiasm, and we can help with that.
Knowing that you are able to take a short break from time to time can be a great incentive to keep you going. Especially when you can be confident that the person you care for will be well looked after by a trained professional during your absence.
How often do you need a break?
You don't necessarily need to have a long break to feel the benefit. Some find that short respite breaks at regular intervals work well. An option could be one afternoon or evening a week for some 'me time'. Or perhaps you enjoy regular visits to the theatre, a cinema, socialising with friends.
In any case, a few days or weeks of respite care for your loved one can be enough to let you recharge your batteries and come back ready and able to perform your regular duties again.
We will take care of everything for you
All you need to do is brief us on the details of the normal care schedule you follow for your relative or friend. You can even have our dedicated Care Worker working alongside you for a day or two to introduce them to your loved one. During your respite break we will then visit as scheduled, or stay in your home to provide live-in care as planned.
It is a much better solution than temporarily placing the person you care for in a care home, where they will be away from their familiar surroundings and possessions, and it may be more difficult for friends to visit them. Of course our involvement doesn't mean that we are taking over your role – it is just a back-up service that will enable you to enjoy a well-earned, worry-free break.
