Respite care
If you're looking for a short-term break you can enjoy some time for yourself, knowing your loved ones are in safe and comfortable hands. MHA respite care is the perfect option for you.
Why choose an MHA care home for respite care
We offer high-quality, short-term care for older people who need residential, nursing or dementia care. Our friendly and experienced teams will welcome your loved one into our home and provide them with personalised care, tailored to their individual needs.
During their temporary stay, your loved one will have their own furnished room, with access to all the facilities and amenities of our home. They will also be able to join in the many activities and events that we organise, such as tea dances, singing, games and arts and crafts. They will also enjoy delicious meals, prepared by our chefs using fresh and local ingredients.
