Respite Service

The respite service provides professional support to people with disabilities and/or Alzheimer's disease in order to assist their carers by offering them a moment of respite.

Respite care is tailored to each individual's specific needs and provides assistance with daily activities, relational and occupational support, and ensures the person's well-being.

As required

Assistance with daily activities: help with getting up/going to bed, preparing and eating meals, etc.
Healthcare assistance: non-medical washing, changing protective clothing, assistance with mobility, etc.
Support for activities at home or outside (swimming pool, cinema, walks, etc.)
Activities are tailored to the individual's interests and abilities.
Support for family carers through a reassuring presence and active listening

Organisation designed for wellbeing at home

Respite care is a service provided by trusted professionals who undergo continuous training. They visit the homes of people with disabilities and/or Alzheimer's disease to help them with daily tasks and accompany them during social or occupational activities. This gives parents or carers a much-needed break and allows them to recharge their batteries.

The respite service is available during the day, at night, at weekends and on public holidays, for a minimum of 4 hours and a maximum of 9 hours per day (with a maximum of 10 hours per night). The service is open to all families, with no age limit, but recognition of disability or Alzheimer's disease is required.

If the person is hospitalised, the educator takes over from the family at the hospital. They provide a familiar and reassuring presence so that care can be provided in the best possible conditions.

Telephone hotline

Our service is available by telephone from Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

For emergencies only, our on-call service is available by telephone outside of our business hours, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Pricing

The price is 9.75 euros per hour.

If travel is undertaken with the person receiving assistance, mileage expenses will be charged at the current rate.

The cost of admission to outside activities is the responsibility of the family (costs for the person being cared for and for the educator).

The service is limited to 375 hours per year for disability respite care, 12 hours per month for Alzheimer's respite care, and 20 hours per week of hospitalisation for hospital support.
