Respite Care

At Millbrook Care Home, respite guests are warmly welcomed into the home and supported with personalised care plans according to their individual needs and preferences. Respite can be an opportunity for home carers to take breaks, for recovery after illness, or to aid a smooth transition into longer term care. All of our residents can enjoy the home’s relaxing surroundings, home-cooked meals and activities, while getting to know the team and spending time with visitors regardless of length of stay.

What is Respite Care in Stalybridge?

Respite care provides short-term support for an older person who needs help with daily life, while giving their usual carer time to rest or attend to other commitments. It may also offer a chance to experience care home life before considering a longer-term move.

Families may consider a short stay when a carer needs a break or when an older person needs additional support for a period of time. The team can discuss the reason for the stay, the person’s needs and whether Millbrook is able to provide the best support.
