What is respite care?
When caring for a person with long-term or complex care needs, it is important for you to be able to take a break, whether that is a quiet moment at home or a refreshing holiday. That’s what makes respite care a valuable means of support, offering temporary and short-term assistance that enables you to have a much-needed breather.
At Thornbury Nursing, we’re able to deliver respite care in many different situations. For example, if you require:
- Emergency support in a hurry
- Flexible short-term cover
- Regular planned respite care
- Respite or continuing care following hospital discharge
- Respite cover for any times you or the regular carer needs to go into hospital.
Our nurses and healthcare assistants are there to offer support that is tailored to your needs, whether that’s helping someone remain independent within their home and other familiar environments or working with them to adapt to new surroundings away from home.
Our options for respite care
Whether support is needed with mobility, personal care or companionship, we cover all aspects of respite care.
Our nurses and healthcare assistants can also work with people with a wide range of clinical complex needs as well as different ages. We’re able to care for people needing:

- Palliative care
- End of life care

How much does respite care cost?
Our respite care costs depend on your needs, so we’ll discuss the level of care that is needed in detail and design a package that works for you. Our team will be available to talk you through what’s involved, and we’ll always be open about our costs.
