This episode will help you understand what residential respite is and how to access it if you have a loved one who needs a higher level of care for a short-term period.

Or, if you are a carer and you’re going away or need a break and want to make sure your loved one is looked after.

We also discuss how respite can be a great way to trial aged care facilities and get people comfortable with a home if they need to move in full time. 

If, after listening to this episode, you need any further help email Andrew from Aged Care Planners at andrew@agedcareplanners.com.au
