Respite Care

At Hartford Care, all of our homes offer respite care for those who may need a short break.   There are many reasons as to why respite care might be a suitable solution for you or your loved one, these may include:

• The need for just a short break from managing at home, alone
• A period of care to recuperate after surgery or an illness
• The need for a safe place for individuals to stay whilst full-time carers take a little break themselves
• A trial period to discover what life is like living with us

What to expect

Anyone who comes to stay with us is welcomed into our homes and treated as part of the ‘Hartford Care Family’.  You or your loved one will benefit from the same care, comfort and companionship that all our permanent residents receive. And as with all our care, those staying with us – even for a short period of time – will receive a tailored plan of care, based on individual needs.
