Our respite care values
Regardless of the amount of time you spend in our care, we prioritise these four key values. You can expect us to carry out these values through our person centred respite care services.
Care
We meet the needs of our residents with dignity and respect. Our team are committed to providing the highest standard of care for your short-term stay with us.
Comfort
We will ensure you settle into our home as quickly as possible, which is why we create an environment where you can feel comfortable and relaxed.
Compassion
We create close relationships with our residents, built on compassion and respect. We encourage staff and residents to be respectful to each other at all times, which helps residents to live an enjoyable life with us.
Credibility
We build strong relationships with our residents by being trustworthy, transparent, and professional. We make sure that we act in the best interests of our residents.
What is respite care?
Respite care is intended for carers who need to take a break from caring whilst this person is looked after by someone else. Whether on a short term or longer-term basis, respite care is adaptable to the needs of the resident and the carer is able to take as much of a break as they need. Our team can provide respite care for varying circumstances and are adaptable to the specific needs of each resident. Whether you are recovering from surgery or illness, or your carer is away for a period of time, we can provide care to ensure you have access to the support you need at this time. With activities and amenities to take advantage of, we ensure you can make the most of your time with us.
