Respite Care

If you’re a carer or a Respite Care Broker, APCare’s paid Respite Carers can be booked to look after your care recipient in your home or in a community location - so that you can take a break to re-charge your batteries.

At APCare, both you the carer, and your care recipient, are our clients. Our goal is to provide a service that meets both your needs. So we aim to find out what you both need for a successful respite arrangement, whether it be a Respite Care Worker of a similar background or any other specfic needs.

The factors that are important to YOU become OUR PRIORITY when matching a Care Worker to your family as we want the respite care we deliver to be beneficial for both you and the person for whom you care.

Whether it’s for 3 hours, 3 days or 3 weeks, APCare Respite Care Workers provide the care and support you normally provide to your loved one. So whether you look after a young adult with a disability, or need someone to care for mum for a few hours while you go out to run some errands, APCare can help. You can book well in advance or ring up with an emergency.
