Since 1989, our person-centred home care services have been helping customers across England and Wales to continue living life on their own terms in the comfort of the homes that they love. In that time, we’ve supported tens of thousands of families, and we’re committed to making sure that every single customer receives a personalised package of care that truly enables them to live well in their circumstances. One of the branches of care we offer is respite care, which is short-term care that aims to provide an essential break for those involved in care. Our respite care services are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), and tailored around your specific needs and wishes. Explore care from our home care in Chipping Sodbury team today.
Respite care is a great option for anyone who normally receives care from a family member or loved one and needs someone to fill in for a few weeks. We all need a break from time to time, and being a caregiver can be particularly exhausting – both physically and mentally. We shouldn’t ever feel guilty or worried about taking time to rest and recover, especially when a respite carer is able to continue looking after your loved one with dedication and empathy. We’re able to provide respite care on either a visiting care or a live-in care in Chipping Sodbury basis, with packages starting from as little as 30 minutes per week, so it doesn’t matter how big or small your needs are – we can always help.

That might mean helping you get into and out of bed at certain times of the day, providing specific support for a complex condition such as a type of dementia, or assisting with medication and personal care. There really are no details too big or too small for our wonderful carers to take into account.
One of the reasons we’re the UK’s most widely-trusted home care provider is the quality of our carers, both in terms of the standard to which they’re trained and their commitment to their roles. We only ever hire people to our care teams who are genuinely passionate about improving the wellbeing of others, and who possess a naturally compassionate personality, as we believe these are essential traits in a carer. All new carers undergo extensive background checks before starting with us, to ensure they’ll be a perfect fit in your home. They’ll then receive our industry-leading carer training, which takes place over the span of four days and includes modules such as dementia care, moving and handling, first aid and medication support. This initial training is topped up by regular refresher courses to ensure
