Calico House Respite Service.
The dictionary definition of respite is 'an interval of relief' - it is a period where a carer can take a break from caring, safe in the knowledge that the loved one they care for is in the best possible hands.
Respite care can provide demonstrable benefits to both the carer and the guest. Respite at Calico House is tailored to your care needs, whether it's just a few days rest, or a longer term stay, our specialist team will prepare a respite care plan that works for you and your family.
At Calico House it is our mission to ensure that guests enjoy an exhilarating and relaxing stay, while also providing a much needed rest for their loved ones and carers.
For families looking after a loved one in their own home, whilst it's a commitment that is gladly and unconditionally accepted, it can also at times be mentally, emotionally and physically draining. Respite care offers a valuable opportunity for carers to recharge their batteries.
It also provides the chance for the individual to be looked after and assessed for a period of time by highly qualified nursing staff. Professional respite care often brings to light developing conditions and issues that home carers may have missed, enabling remedial intervention from our highly skilled nursing team.
Respite care can also provide a valuable opportunity for an individual to enjoy a change of scene, meet new friends and participate in activities on offer at Calico House.
Extended Personal Care is committed to providing a comprehensive range of high quality, person focused care services delivered by a team of skilled health and social care professionals.
