    Overview

    Resthaven understands and values the important role of carers in supporting their relatives and spouses as they age and are no longer fully independent.

    Sometimes, a carer needs to attend to other activities, or go on holidays. Respite enables a carer to remain healthy, in their caring role longer, and it enables you both to have a wider social life.

    By joining the Resthaven residential community as a respite client, you are able to participate in lifestyle activities and other aspects of life at Resthaven.

    Residential respite is a great introduction to residential care. Our staff are qualified, insured, and police checked, providing affordable support when and where you need it.

    Resthaven provides respite at all of our residential aged care homes for older people who are either high or low care assessed as part of their government assessment process. Each applicant is then considered based on a suitable vacancy being available to fit the individual care needs of that person.

    Residential respite accommodation is available at all Resthaven aged care homes for a minimum of two (2) weeks. Bookings are essential.

    Our staff look forward to assisting and supporting you to ensure your time at Resthaven is an enjoyable experience.
