Home Care Services

Respite Care

As you age and your health declines, being able to stay in the comfort of your own home following a hospital stay or for convalescing after an injury or illness is an option that many older persons choose. One form of support that can be utilised to enable you to remain in your own home during this time, is to receive respite care.

Farris Care Services’ team is available to support you in your own home should you choose respite care. We have a team of experienced and qualified persons who will plan your individualised respite care in consultation with you.
