We offer a range of short term respite care for people that do not require long stay or residential admission to a nursing home.
Our respite care service provides temporary relief to family carers to allow them to recharge their batteries or take a much needed break.
Respite Care is available to support an individual’s ability to live longer in the community by ensuring family/other caregivers are supported. Your loved one with dementia or other care needs may also benefit from the break. It could provide the opportunity for social interactions, stimulating activities and therapies, remain involved and active, and benefit from new friendships and companionship in care.
All Dockt Healthcare homes offer respite care service – available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week – based on the need for temporary relief and the availability of facility resources.
Minimum stay: One Week
A multidisciplinary team, consisting of Dockt Healthcare Professionals, the attending physician and home staff, provide:
assessment and referral services
nursing care
resident and caregiver support
self-care, health promotion, and prevention of illness or injury
recreation and socialisation opportunities
nutrition, laundry and housekeeping services
as well as medical services in collaboration with a family physician

My father has many care needs and the staff look after him so well. They understand his ‘ways’ and share his sense of humour.
Resident’s Daughter
My mom loves the activities, which she feels are excellent … she doesn’t have a care in the world.
