Respite can be occasional, planned regularly or arranged around specific family commitments, subject to availability.

The person behind the support

A considered match.
A clear family contact.

We review relevant experience, qualifications and training for the agreed role. Identity, reference and police/background screening, including vulnerable-sector checks for applicable roles, form part of our caregiver checks.

We consider routines, communication and personal preferences, arrange an introduction, and explain the continuity and absence-cover arrangements. Inhome Care Services holds insurance for its care services.

Discussing a quote

Know the scope.
Know the cost.

Share the requested schedule, location, level of assistance and relevant household arrangements. Ask for a clear explanation of the proposed duties, price, additional coverage and any minimum booking requirements.

Caregiver availability and preferences are discussed before an arrangement is confirmed. Medical treatment and clinical decisions remain with appropriately qualified professionals.

Can respite be occasional or regular?

Both can be discussed, subject to caregiver availability. Share the days, times and routines to be covered so the proposed visit pattern and responsibilities are clear.

What should we prepare for a respite visit?
