Respite Care

What Is Respite Care?

Even if you are able to provide the best care possible for your loved ones, the long-term effects of stress can affect your health and overall well-being. Engaging short-term respite care services is important for your health and for your ability to continue to provide care for your loved ones. Our well-trained nursing professionals also provide convalescent, stepped-down nursing care, medical consultation, or post-surgery rehabilitation to help with the recovery and healing process.

Why We Offer Respite Care?

Orange Valley’s respite care provides the comfort and assurance that your loved ones will be well looked after.

Transitional care services are designed to address unexpected circumstances in which help is needed urgently. Regardless of your situation, transitional care services can help to offer support.

Example: A senior is discharged from hospital but needs continued support before returning home.

Types Of Respite Care

One of the unique facets of respite care is that it provides care designed for the individual circumstances. This means that you can choose from the two types of respite care depending on your needs. 

Planned Respite:

Ideal if you are able to foresee when you will require the service.
Example: Caregiver planning for a break or post-hospitalization care is needed.

Our transitional care services and emergency respite care are designed for unexpected circumstances where help is needed urgently.
Example: Caregiver is not well or needs to attend to a family emergency.
