The Whiddon Group - Maclean
At Whiddon, our respite services are designed to give you continuity of care, and peace of mind.
If you’ve been in hospital, or are recovering from illness, you may appreciate some extra assistance to get you back on your feet. You may need to look after a loved one, and need a little extra support.
If you already have some help, respite care gives your carer the chance to go on holidays or attend to daily life, knowing that your routines and requirements are being looked after, just as always. Whiddon can help you arrange respite for as little or as long as you need – it may be for a few hours, or days, or longer.
Respite offers carers the opportunity to take a few days to recharge their batteries, attend to work during busy periods, or to travel overseas, knowing their family members are in safe and caring hands.
Please get in touch to find out how our respite care service can support you and your family when you need it.
