Live-in respite care from Agincare is a short term solution enabling a carer to take a break. We can also provide cover for illness and emergencies.
Respite care for family members
Our respite live-in care service enables carers, who may be family members, to take a short break from their roles. Lasting anything from seven days to several weeks, it facilitates minimum disruption to important routines and lifestyle.
Emergency live-in respite care
This can typically occur when your carer falls ill or has to go into hospital. In such situations, our live-in care respite carer can move swiftly to provide that vital care at short notice.
If you register with us now, we will carry out a free no obligation care assessment, which will allow us to create a bespoke personal care plan.
Based on the care and support needs required, we are then able to identify the right care worker with the skills and experience to ensure a service can be provided quickly and efficiently at short notice.
Rapid response
Where there is an emergency situation our rapid response team can carry out an assessment within 24 hours of a request being made and place a care worker within 5-7 days.
Types of respite care
As with all our live-in care services, our respite support can be tailored to a range of conditions – including Dementia/Alzheimer’s, MS (Multiple Sclerosis), strokes, Parkinson's Disease, End-of-life care, spinal injuries and more. We provide respite care for elderly people and young adults alike.
We provide this service to individuals and the public sector (local authorities and primary care trusts) so that we can assist in helping people in hospital get home as soon as possible.
