Respite Care
We transform the lives of our residents and watch them blossom under our care
OUR CARE
What isRespite Care?
Respite care is a temporary care service that may be needed for a few nights. Depending on the requirement, it may extend to several weeks, or even a period of months. Regardless of the length of care that you’re seeking, you can always be assured of the quality of respite services.
Who is RespiteCare For?
At times, we all need a little extra help to get back on our feet, or to take a break from our daily routine. That’s where respite care comes in. Our respite services allow you or your loved one to enjoy all the amenities and support that our full-time residents receive, but on a short-term basis.
It could be that you require some additional assistance when recovering from a hospital stay, or, as a carer, you may have plans that require you to be away from home.
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.
OUR TESTIMONIALS
"Everyone was kind and helpful and very nice to us. My uncle always said very positive things and seemed to be very happy and relaxed."
"The staff are extremely caring, supportive and dutiful in their care for the residents. The food is superb all freshly cooked daily. Mum has flourished and improved at Fairways."
"Very happy with the care my father receives. He's suffering from dementia so is not always the easiest person to deal with, but he is dealt with respectfully. If he's having a tough time emotionally, we can call the home and talk to the staff, who are always understanding and appreciate the input from us."
"My mate is really well looked after here. I know all of us are happier that he’s in a safe place getting the help and support he needs rather than being stuck in his home and struggling away. Obviously, we miss seeing him as much, but he didn’t get out much before and this way we can pop over and see him whenever we get the chance."
"My dad was a resident here for over a year, and we were very happy with the care they provided, very homely. I always found the staff lovely, caring and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Very happy memories of dad's time spent there. Especially his singing and dancing."
"My brother lived at Mountside for a year, and I have to say, it was great to see him so happy and relaxed. It was very sad for us that he had to move to a home, but once he had settled, it had brought back his old glow and charm. He always said he was well cared for, and the building was beautiful.
We are so happy that he managed to get another year of being himself again after struggling so much at home. He always loved the weekly bingo!"
"My mother is very happy there because she feels safe. It is very friendly staff go the extra mile and provide a wide range of activities. The room is lovely with a lovely view of beautiful grounds. I'm glad we chose this home. Mum also loves the little dog who is very friendly."
"The home was very helpful clean with lovely staff my husband was looked after very well. We could not have had better treatment."
"I came to visit the other day and felt compelled to leave a review. I just read an article in the newspaper about people being forced out of hospitals and into care homes. Well from my experience at Mountside, I just want to ask why that’s a bad things? My great-aunt has been in hospital many timesover the last few years and it’s always terrible and she always cries about wanting to go home. But since she’s been at Mountside, she’s so happy and free and is getting so much help and support. These guys are doing a fantastic job and we really should be highlighting what a fantastic place it is!"
