Respite care

What is respite care?

Respite care provides temporary relief for primary caregivers, often family members caring for loved ones. It means caregivers can carry on with their lives and responsibilities, run errands or just take a break.

Our respite care services

Our Weymouth and Dorchester services offer flexible support, including one-off services or regular weekly visits; giving you a break from caring for your loved one and peace of mind, knowing they are in safe hands, being well looked after. Our services include:

  • One-off visits
  • Regular visits
  • Hourly live-in care
  • Short-term or long-term support
And moving on to more comprehensive care such as:
  • Companionship
  • Meal preparation
  • Personal care
  • Complex care needs

How respite care works

Our respite care process begins with an initial home visit to understand each client's unique needs and routines. We then develop a personalised care plan with the client and their family, carefully matching them to a suitable caregiver to provide seamless support.

Regular updates are arranged in advance to keep families informed and reassured. Our goal is to provide peace of mind as well as the best possible care.

We welcome all enquiries. Please get in touch to discuss your needs. Call 01305 534070,  or use our contact us form.

I was hesitant to accept help, but Neways at Home's caregivers have restored my independence and dignity. Thank you!
