Respite Care is a short-term care service which aims to provide temporary relief for family caregivers to have a break from looking after their loved ones at home. This is ideal for those who have plans to go overseas for vacation or business trip and also for those who simply want some free time to fulfill their own commitments or to enjoy some leisure activities.

The family caregivers can choose to admit their loved ones into any of our Nursing Homes for a pre-determined duration. Our nursing staff will take over the overall care of your loved ones until the caregivers are ready to bring them home.
