How respite care can support an elderly loved one

Respite care in Tenterfield Care Aged Care Community can be a safe and affordable short-term solution for older locals needing some extra support.

Families can enjoy peace of mind knowing that their loved one will be cared for in a community designed to feel like home, while being supported to remain as independent as possible.

Respite care is commonly used to ensure a loved one receives the care they need following a planned surgery, or when recovering from an illness or injury.

Respite care can also provide partners and families with the opportunity to take a much-needed break from their caring role.

Tenterfield Care respite guests enjoy a private suite, country-style meals, housekeeping and laundry service. Guests can also join our lifestyle program, and receive pastoral support.

All residents receive personalised, around-the-clock care from a team of Registered Nurses and Carers.

And with the Government subsidising a component of the daily charge for eligible guests, respite can be surprisingly affordable.
