Respite Care

Those who care for someone with dementia, a disability or a chronic illness sometimes need a break from the responsibility of caring. Our respite care at home service can help at such times.

• Consultus can provide a live-in Carer to look after the Client in their own home for as long as required
• The Carer will be chosen according to the needs, wishes and circumstances of the Client and will provide domestic, physical and emotional support in line with the Client’s needs
• Relatives and Carers can confidently enjoy a short time away, knowing that a live-in Consultus Carer is on hand 24 hours a day
• If more than one period of respite a year is needed, we will do our best to accommodate any request for the same Carer to return for the respite periods
• Respite care at home can be arranged at very short notice and Carers can often be placed within 24 hours of a request being made
