Respite Care
Short-term care support you can trust — when you need it most
At The Right Healthcare Services, we understand that caring for a loved one is a full-time commitment. Our Respite Care service offers compassionate, short-term support to give family carers time to rest, recover, or manage other responsibilities — with complete peace of mind.
We offer respite care for adults aged 18 and over across Medway, including Gillingham, Chatham, Rochester, Strood, and Rainham, as well as surrounding villages such as Walderslade, Cuxton, Snodland, and Hoo.
What Is Respite Care?
Respite care is temporary care provided by our trained Care Workers, either in your loved one’s home or as additional support while you're present.
Whether it’s for a few hours, several days, or longer — we step in when you need a break, providing high-quality, reliable care in your absence.
Flexible, Responsive Support
We offer both planned respite (to cover holidays or work obligations) and emergency respite (in cases of sudden illness or carer burnout).
Our goal is to keep your loved one safe, supported, and comfortable in familiar surroundings — while giving you the chance to recharge.
