Respite care in Leicester
Take a break knowing your relative is looked after at home by trained carers.
What to expect
Family carers need rest. Respite care gives you a break while a trained carer looks after your relative at home, in their own routine and surroundings.
Cover can be a few hours a week, a regular day, or longer cover for holidays or illness. We start with a free assessment, learn how your relative's day works, and keep to their usual routines. If you need continuous cover, live-in care can provide it for a few days or weeks.
What this includes
Longer cover
Holidays, illness or recovery.
Same routine
Care in the person's own home.
Questions about respite care
How short can respite care be?
Visits can be as short as the time you need. We agree the hours with you after the assessment.
Can respite care be arranged quickly?
Often within days, depending on the hours and where you live. Call us to check.
Can the council help pay for respite?
Some councils fund respite, and carers can ask for a carer's assessment. See our funding FAQs.
