Respite Care

Harrier Grange Care Home greets you with open arms, no matter what you’ve been through recently. Harrier Grange takes pleasure in making our residents feel at ease, and we want those who are just visiting us for a short period of time to feel the same way.

There’s no better place than to rest up and be taken care of at Harrier Grange. We’re confident that after a brief stay with us, you’ll be back to your usual amazing self in no time. Staying with us for a short while offers you enough time to fully recover, whether you’ve fallen or suffered a more serious injury. It also allows family members and potential caretakers to enjoy some alone time without worrying about providing care for their loved one.

What is Respite Care?

Respite care is a short-term care service provided to those who have recently had a fall or illness and need somewhere to stay whilst they get back on their feet. Respite care is also suitable for individuals who are full-time caregivers to a member of their family and need some time to recuperate.

Harrier Grange Care Home provides the highest-quality respite care to every one of our guests until they feel more like themselves again. No matter how long you stay with us, everyone becomes a part of the Harrier Grange family.

Our Approach to Respite Care

We recognise that everyone needs a break from time to time. People who require short-term care, whether for a few weeks or longer, will benefit greatly from our respite care package. This can come in handy around the holidays, or to help with recovery from an operation or sickness for everyone involved.

Respite care can be tailored to fit your schedule and current care plan, with attention given to each individual need. We are committed at Harrier Grange Care Home to ensuring that each one of our residents gets the best possible care they require and deserve.
