Enjoy a change of scenery with temporary relief Respite Short Term Accommodation for your loved ones.
What is Respite/STA?
At Eloma Care, our Respite or Short Term Accommodation (STA) service offers more than just temporary relief for families and caregivers. It’s an enriching experience designed to provide participants with a safe and supportive environment, where they can enjoy a refreshing change of scenery and engage in exciting new activities.
Participants have the unique opportunity to explore independence, participate in outings, and test what it’s like to stay somewhere independently. This experience not only fosters personal growth but also enhances their confidence and enjoyment. Families and caregivers can take a well-deserved break to recharge and rejuvenate. We offer an app where you can see photos posted of your loved one, allowing you to relax and know they are in good care. This feature provides peace of mind and helps you stay connected with their experiences.
