Respite Care
Respite care can be defined as a short-term stay for a loved one to allow a respite, or recovery time, for the caregiver. Some of the reasons a caregiver might seek a respite care stay for their loved one include a planned surgery, vacation or needed time to manage their stress and personal health and well-being.
Respite Care at West Park offers short-term stays that can vary from a few days to a few weeks. We provide furnished respite suites with access to a nursing team 24 hours a day, which includes a personalized plan of care.
Respite-stay guests at West Park receive the same patient-directed care as our residents. This includes a compassionate interdisciplinary team that ensures their individual needs are met as well as access to numerous services, activities and amenities.
It’s typically best to plan ahead for a respite care stay, but we understand that it’s not always possible. If an urgent need arises, feel free to contact us to check our availability.
