‘If you’re supporting a loved one and need a short break, Moat House Care Home near Great Dunmow is currently offering a special respite care opportunity—six weeks of care for the price of four weeks. It’s a gentle way to explore life in a care home, offering peace of mind for families and a supportive, welcoming space for those in need of extra care, even if just for a little while.’ Commented Home Manager Tara Crowe.
Respite care is a short-term care solution that provides essential support to both older individuals and their caregivers. Whether recovering from a hospital stay, adjusting after an illness, or simply needing extra support while family members take a well-deserved break, respite care can be a lifeline. It’s also an ideal opportunity for individuals considering full-time care to try out life in a care home before making a long-term commitment.
“Respite care isn’t just about giving carers a break—it’s about helping older people recover, reconnect, and feel supported,” said Tara Crowe, Home Manager at Moat House Care Home.
During their stay at Moat House, respite residents will benefit from:
· 24/7 support from our experienced care team
· Help with personal care
· A safe, welcoming environment with social engagement
· Delicious, home-cooked meals and a full calendar of activities
The length of a respite stay is flexible and tailored to individual needs, with the approval of the Home Manager. For many families, respite care can make the world of difference—allowing caregivers time to rest and recharge, while knowing their loved one is in trusted hands.
