Short term and respite care

Respite care is for people who may require a short or temporary stay or who may require short term care to recover from an illness or operation. People can come for Respite care  for anything from a few days to several weeks or months, this really depends on their care needs.  Riverside House offers residential and dementia respite care packages.  We would seek to put a respite care package in consultation with the resident, family and healthcare professionals.

“I can’t thank staff and management enough for the support they have shown my mum and our family, I have gone from worrying daily about Mum being at home alone to now feeling happy and content that she is happy. My mum was initially on respite for 2 weeks while we made some changes to her home and she decided she did not want to leave. I am thrilled with how much her health and appearance have improved since being at Riverside House, she has the opportunity daily to socialize and loves every second of activities in the home” – Allison B
