We offer respite care in your home, meaning your loved one can stay in the comfort of their own home and familiar surroundings.

Whether you require respite care for a couple of days or a longer period, our nurses will provide complete continuity of care in your absence. Not only does this give you a welcome break from caring, but your elderly relative will get to meet somebody who could further help them with freedom and quality of life.

Whether your loved one has complex medical needs or simply requires a little help with daily tasks, our nurses will be able to provide a level of respite care that best suits them.

Star Home Nurses are well-experienced, therefore, able to step into your shoes and provide the care and support your loved one requires whilst you are away.

We take exactly the same approach in planning our short-term respite care plans as we do with long-term assignments. This means we will sit down with you and your loved one and plan every aspect of the care they need thoroughly and meticulously. This can include, but is not limited to the following:

  • Achieving and maintaining better personal care and hygiene, better nutrition, assistance in mobilization and prevention of injuries and disease.
  • Companionship and organizing activities and care plan according to client’s age, present condition , culture and lifestyle in order to obtain a better standard of living.
