Respite Care

Respite offers both carers, and the people they care for, time apart to do things they normally would not be able to do. Monash Health offers highly qualified carers, and a range of care options for respite care, in your home or ours.

Day Respite (centre based)

At our day respite centres you can enjoy lots of different activities and spend time with friends. While you are with us, your carer can use the time to do other things knowing that you are being well looked after.

We have a number of respite centre options available. Please call 9792 7788 for more information.


Respite Care (in your home)

If your carer needs time to do other things or have a break, we can come to your home and look after you. Our qualified staff can spend time with you at home or we can take you out and about - you decide the care you would like.

For more information about Respite Care, please call 9792 7788.


Overnight Respite (in your home)

If you prefer to stay at home while your carer needs to be away overnight, our friendly and qualified personal care workers can come and stay with you. While we are with you, we can do a range of activities, depending on what you would like to do.

For more information about Overnight Respite, please call 9792 7788.


Residential Respite (in our home)

If your carer needs time to do other things you are welcome to come and stay at one of our homes. While you are with us, you can enjoy lots of different activities and spend time with friends while we look after you.
