Respite

At Shaw healthcare we understand that everyone deserves a break sometimes, especially if you care for an elderly, dependant relative or friend? Or maybe, you are in need of respite care yourself? Taking a regular short break from your usual routine, can do wonders for your self esteem, and general wellbeing. Alternatively, you may need a period of convalescence yourself, to recover from an illness or operation.
Or you may simply just want to see, what life is really like in a modern care home.

Our respite breaks offer comprehensive care which means you can expect top quality accommodation, a varied menu, comfortable lounge and dining rooms and a range of activities.

Respite care is available for physically frail elderly people and also those diagnosed with dementia, in our nursing and residential care homes.

We offer a variety of breaks to accommodate all needs from single nights to six weeks and believe it is crucial that carers feel relaxed when taking a well earned rest, knowing that a relative or friend is in a safe, warm and welcoming environment.
