Respite Care
Caring for a loved one can be physically and mentally very demanding. It is a role that requires 100% commitment and a lot of selflessness. No matter how committed you are to the needs of the person you are caring for, you also need to make time for yourself. Respite care services at Helpful Home care allow carers to recharge their batteries so that they can resume their caring, feeling refreshed and able. Our services enable carers to ensure their loved ones receive the support they need while they take a short break from their roles.
During respite care our carers can:
Help you with all aspects of personal care, such as self-care, preparing meals, taking medication
Carry out light domestic tasks such as cleaning and ironing
Provide companionship
Help you to look after your pets
Shop for groceries and other household items
Whether it is for an hour a week or on a daily basis, respite care can offer extra help where required or provide a much needed break for full time carers.
