CENTRE-BASED RESPITE CARE

RehabCare's centre-based respite care services afford many people with disabilities their only opportunity to take a holiday while at the same time providing the families/carers with a break from fulltime caring. The presence of a respite service is key in helping the individual remain in the family home for as long as possible.

The philosophy of our centre-based services is to provide a home from home setting, making it an enjoyable and relaxed time for the individual in an environment where the family can be confident that their family member's needs are being well catered for.
