Respite Care

Respite image

We offer a variety of respite options to give you and your regular carers the flexibility you need.

With our respite care, you can enjoy some time away from your normal routine, whether it’s in the comfort of your own home or out exploring the community. Our carers can use their own vehicle, public transportation, or simply walk with you to local destinations.

We begin with a Leisure Assessment to determine the best use of your respite time, taking into consideration your age, interests, and specific needs. This helps us match you with a carer who shares similar interests, such as reading, knitting, participating in social activities, or playing a game of catch in the park.

Additionally, we offer a Meet and Greet session before starting respite care, allowing you and your family to get to know your carer. We understand that finding the right fit isn’t always easy, and we’re committed to trying different carers until we find the one that’s best for you.

Respite care has been referred to as taking care of an individual by a paid care worker so that the current carer can have a break to reset from all of their hard and dedicated work. The role of respite care can also mean “a pause for relaxation”. Whether the person or family member who is the usual carer needs time off to relax and to have an adventure by themselves, Homewell is flexible and high-quality respite care.  A few of the respite care services we offer are as follows:
  • Dementia care respite 
  • Aged care respite 
  • Respite care for the elderly 
The respite care that we provide can be at home, or out in your local community. We can cater to all of your respite care needs. Any type of respite care can start with a leisure assessment which will be used to evaluate the best use of time for the individual for whom we are caring. We will consider their age, past interests and other relevant factors that will affect us providing the best service. A respite carer’s skills and attributes can vary. Many of our respite carers in Melbourne have spent time writing books, and others love to involve themselves in sports. Whether you need respite for aged care or dementia, Homewell will look after you in Melbourne. The staff at Homewell will spend time determining the best match between our respite carers and the individual who needs care. You can request to meet your respite carer before we commence our respite care services. This allows the individual who requires care to meet with the respite carer and build an initial relationship and familiarity. If you are not satisfied with the initial respite carer you are provided, we will work with you to find the right one. The respite care at Quality With Care will provide short-term relief for primary caregivers. Our respite care service can be organised for just an afternoon, consecutive days, or weeks. We provide respite care for caregivers who need a break from looking after someone with dementia, elderly, or disabled. Contact Homewell if you are seeking dementia respite care, aged care respite, or respite care for the elderly in Melbourne.
