At Leisure Options, we truly believe that a great respite program should offer more than just rest.
Respite supports people with disabilities and their informal supports by giving them short breaks from their caring responsibilities. It also gives participants time away from their families or usual living situation.
Leisure Options respite care supports you to enjoy ‘me’ time in a safe and nurturing environment, while your loved ones get a break as well. We believe that respite should be a positive experience for both you and your carer, providing beneficial and meaningful experiences that leave you both refreshed and invigorated.
Whether you come for a night or a week our team work to diligently prepare daily activity plans that meet your needs, interests, and desires. Activities are tailored to each individual and may include a mix of gardening, cooking, arts, and crafts, games, puzzles, nature walks, attractions, and any other interests you may have. Let us know what you love doing and our tour leaders will support you to achieve your goals.
Respite care can be included as part of your NDIS plan as time away is a powerful tool in strengthening your independence, life skills, and community access experiences.
