Respite Care and Short Breaks

Respite Break

If you are planning a holiday or a short break and want to know that your loved one is safe and being well cared for, why not consider booking them a Respite Break in one of our comfortable, well equipped Nellsar Homes? Respite Breaks can be planned well in advance, enabling you to book your annual holiday.

Short Break

Perhaps your loved one would like to try one of our Homes? Short Breaks can be an ideal way to introduce them to the Care Home environment, and this could become something they decide to do on a regular basis. These breaks can also be an ideal way to introduce them to longer Respite Breaks.

Time to recharge or recuperate

These Care Packages allow carers time to re-charge their batteries while their loved ones are provided with 24-hour, personalised care.

They can also be used for an individual to recuperate following an illness or a fall, where their carer is temporarily unable to manage. We realise that this can be a worrying time and will endeavour to undertake an assessment of care needs within 24 hours.

Visit for a trial day

We are able to offer a trial day where a loved one can attend their choice of Home to familiarise themselves with the staff, other residents and facilities before admission. They can be accompanied by a family member or friend on this day.


To plan a Respite Break, Short Break or trial day, contact your choice of Home to discuss the dates you have in mind. We look forward to welcoming you.
