Respite Care
Respite is a type of care that supports you and your carer by giving you both a short break from your regular care routine.
All Wintringham homes can provide respite care at various times.
Respite care can also be used as an introduction to residential aged care. It allows the resident and also their family ample time to determine if a home is the right fit for them, before making a decision about permanent care.
Most respite care is planned, although occasionally, emergency respite care can also be available. Please feel free to contact one of our homes to discuss your specific needs.
All our full Residential Care facilities provide the following:
- private accommodation
- all meals and refreshments
- cleaning and maintenance
- laundry services
- linen
- assistance with personal hygiene and daily living activities
- assistance with medication and treatment
- access to a range of services including physiotherapy and nursing care
- staff on call 24 hours a day
- assistance with financial and legal matters
- provision for individual room telephones and TV
- leisure and recreation opportunities
With the provision of first-rate care and support, individually tailored recreation programs and beautiful surroundings, our residential facilities have developed into thriving communities. People moving from the most deprived circumstances into these communities soon learn they have a ‘home until stumps’.
