TAKE A BREAK WITH OUR RESPITE CARE SERVICE
We provide our specialist dementia care service as either 24 hour live-in care or as respite care.
Respite care is a short-term arrangement, for a minimum of two weeks to provide an opportunity
for a family carer to take a much needed break from caring for someone living with dementia. It can
also be used to try live-in care for the first time to see how live-in care works and whether it is the
right choice for you in the future.
“My parents are now able to live a peaceful life thanks to the carers provided by
The Good Care Group, despite the dementia and physical issues of older age.”
