What is Respite Care in Wiltshire?

Respite Care is a care service offered on a short-term basis that provides the opportunity for older people to take a break from their everyday routines. Those who are caring for a loved one full-time can use respite care to take scheduled breaks from their caregiving duties while a professional care team takes the heavy load for a while.

Someone who has recently had a fall, operation or illness will also greatly benefit from respite care. When someone is in the recovery stage, it often means they are unable to carry on with their daily routines without the help of others. Respite care can be arranged for a few weeks or months until that person is fully ready to return home.
