Respite care allows for guests to benefit from all that our full-time residents have on offer, but on a short-term basis. It could be that you need some additional support when recovering from a hospital stay. Or as a carer you may have plans that mean you can’t look after your loved one. No matter the reason, respite care allows you to take some time out, safe in the knowledge that you or your loved one is receiving the very best care.

Respite care offers 24-hour support with personal care and assistance, with day-to-day tasks that may have become a struggle. It may be that your family member is in need of qualified care, or they may even need a caring team who has the necessary skills and expertise to look after a person with dementia. No matter the type of care that is needed, we have the very best staff who can cater to your requirements.

Taking a step back and time out for yourself is not always easy. At Old Rectory, we allow you to do this with confidence.
