What is respite care?
Respite care is a temporary care service designed to provide relief for primary caregivers by taking over their caregiving responsibilities for a short period. At Palm Lake Care, respite care ensures that your loved one is looked after with the same level of care, comfort, and attention as our long-term residents. Whether for a few weeks, or longer, respite care provides a safe and supportive environment in our aged care communities, allowing caregivers to rest and recharge.
Respite care at Palm Lake Care is ideal for family members or primary caregivers who need a break from their caregiving duties or when they are temporarily unable to provide care due to vacations, personal health, or other commitments. It also benefits elderly individuals who may require extra support, specialised care, or a chance to experience community living before committing to long-term care.
You can access respite care for a period that suits your needs, from a few weeks. The Australian Government subsidises up to 63 days of respite care in a financial year for eligible individuals. This flexibility allows you to choose the length of stay that provides the most benefit to both the caregiver and the resident.

No, while respite care and transition care both provide short-term support, they serve different purposes. Respite care is primarily aimed at providing relief for caregivers, whereas transition care is designed to assist individuals who are recovering from a hospital stay and need additional support before returning home. However, both services offer valuable support and care options depending on the needs of the individual.
