Respite support for families

At Nobilis, we know you take great joy in providing care to your loved ones. But we also understand the physical and emotional demands that this can cause, and sometimes overwhelm, without support.

We can offer you a respite care plan – a chance for you to focus on yourself and take a break. Whether you want to just recharge and relax or take time out to see friends and family that you’ve been unable to see.

We will come to your home, and get to know your family, and make sure that we understand your normal environment and family routines.

We’ll work with you to understand specific health conditions, medicines, and will produce a ‘needs assessment’. We’ll look at all home and personal care needs – from meal planning and preparation, to personal care assistance such as getting up, dressing, bathing and grooming.

But it’s not just the physical tasks that make a difference. It’s also being able to give your loved one emotional support and companionship.

At Nobilis, we make it our priority to get to know you and your loved ones so that the care we provide is as you would give yourself.

Being there when you can’t

We know that this has been a very difficult time for everyone – none more so than for families who have been unable to see their relatives as often as they might have wanted to, or even at all.  We know that holiday time – particularly around Christmas – is a time for families and friends to gather and connect. But sometimes that just might not be possible.

Connecting you over your holidays

We’ve introduced a ‘holiday care package’ and have been working with our care teams to make sure that we can provide cover, support and personal care to your loved ones key holiday periods as needed.

We work on an hourly basis, so if it’s just popping in for a cup of tea and a chat, then we can do it.  If you need us to help them with lunch or dinner, and make sure they have their TV set-up for the day, we can do that too. You might need our help with their personal care, getting them up and dressed.

We have also introduced a whole suite of smart technologies that can help you connect directly to a loved one. Whether it’s sensors to alert you to any issues, cameras in the home or setting up a family portal and a google hub, we can help you.

One of the greatest benefits of in-home care isn’t the tasks we do for our clients; it’s about the companionship for people who often feel lonely, isolated or depressed about the physical or emotional problems they face. And no more so when you’re away.

As our friends at Age UK say: “no one should have no one”, and we at Nobilis want to offer you our support where we can, and make sure that we look in on your relatives when you are unable to.
