COMPANIONSHIP FOR YOUR 

 LOVED ONE WHEN YOU

 NEED A BREAK   

 

 

Our Sitting Service provides respite for carers who need a break.  The sitters provide companionship and basic personal care and participate in a range of activities if required.  The sitting service allows the usual or family carers to take a break whilst the cared-for person remains in their home with a trained person who will look after them.  Sessions can be from as little as 2 hours to 24 hours. This service is available seven days a week. 

 

The service is provided by our trained and verified staff who ensure that the appropriate level of care is provided in your absence. A sitter provides companionship, support, personal care and assistance, which would normally be provided by their carer. This might include accompanying the person on a visit or to an appointment, short walks, conversation, reading, games or as required during the break.
