In-home dementia respite care

We provide flexible, in-home care options suited to your individual needs, including overnight and weekend support. Our in-home dementia respite care service has been co-designed with real families experiencing dementia. As a result, our dementia care consultants will work with you and your loved ones to understand your needs, and match you with a skilled personal carer, trained in dementia care. An introductory session allows you to make sure you are comfortable with them before your service commences. The service includes:

• Respite provided in the home, not in a centre.
• Flexible time options, from two hours to 24 hours and beyond, including overnight and weekend support.
• Time with a dementia care consultant, who will develop an intimate knowledge of your family’s needs.
• Matching with a personal carer who has received dementia care training in partnership with TAFE Queensland and Dementia Australia.
• Introductory session to meet your personal carer and establish a support routine before the service commences.
• Support tailored to your individual needs.
• Support to maintain your links to your local community and to continue to enjoy your hobbies and pastimes.
