Livewell with Respite Care
Over and above caring for our permanent residents, Livewell offers those suffering from dementia the opportunity to join us as day or short term visitors and to participate in our holistic and rewarding activity programmes within a safe and serene environment – all with the care of our dedicated, professional staff. The short team respite care has been designed to enable caregivers to take a break from their responsibilities for a few days, or an extended period.
Caring for a person with dementia can be extremely demanding. The aim of respite care is to provide some relief for carers and support them in having a break from their caring responsibilities, to look after their own health and wellbeing.
