Flexible Respite
Flexible respite aims to support and maintain care relationships between carers and clients, through providing good quality respite care for frail older people so that carers can take a break.
What could this look like?
- Transport to and from appointments / social events / activities
- In-home support with meals
- General everyday duties around the home
- Support with shopping
- Companionship
- Someone to talk to and laugh with
The typical process of accessing our flexible respite service is by receiving an in-home assessment arranged through My Aged Care and discussing your needs with them. This process can take several weeks. You can contact them on 1800 931 299.
If you don’t have time to wait for respite – contact the Commonwealth Respite and Carelink Centres for Emergency and Planned Respite. Their website is here.
