When it’s time for a break, we are here to help
Respite care provides temporary relief for individuals caring for a loved one with a disability, illness, or special needs. It offers short-term support, allowing primary carers to take a break while ensuring their loved one continues to receive quality care in a safe and supportive environment.
At Care Hub 24/7, we offer flexible respite care options tailored to individual needs, whether for a few hours, overnight, or an extended period. This service helps both carers and individuals recharge, promoting overall well-being and a better quality of life.
Respite care plays a vital role in supporting individuals with disabilities and their caregivers. It provides a temporary break for carers, allowing them to rest, recharge, and maintain their well-being while ensuring their loved ones receive quality care in a safe and supportive environment.
For individuals with disabilities, respite care offers social engagement, new experiences, and a change of surroundings, contributing to their overall happiness and mental well-being. It also helps prevent caregiver burnout, strengthens relationships, and promotes a balanced, fulfilling life for both carers and those they support.
Respite care comes in various forms to support individuals with disabilities and their careers. It can be provided at home, where a professional caregiver offers assistance and companionship, or through short-term residential stays in specialized facilities. Community-based respite programs allow individuals to engage in social activities, promoting interaction and personal growth. In urgent situations, emergency respite care ensures immediate support when a carer is unavailable. At Care Hub 24/7, we offer flexible respite care options tailored to individual needs, ensuring comfort, safety, and peace of mind for both carers and their loved ones.
Yes, respite care is a form of temporary support funded by the NDIS. Whether you are looking to take a break or waiting on home modifications to move into your new home. NDIS provides various support options, to help you feel supported and cared for.
The respite care is funded in your NDIS plan, where the support is considered “reasonable and necessary” for the individual.
Under the NDIS, respite care for the disabled is generally funded for up to 14 days at a time. If you wish to make long-term arrangements beyond 2 weeks, you will require a different type of NDIS funding such as Medium-Term Accommodation or Supported Independent Living.
As respite care arrangements will vary depending on your situation, the cost will depend on length of respite care, level of support needed and how inclusive the service is (i.e. meals and activities). See the NDIS Price Guide for more details regarding respite care prices.
