You or your loved one may need to use a care home for a short-term break. At The Portland Group we offer overnight, weekends, mid week, weekly or longer periods of stay for people with various dependencies.

Choosing a respite unit is one of the most important decisions anyone of us may have to make. At Portland we will help you in your choice of appropriate unit and the type of care required.

The burden of living alone for vulnerable people is a daunting one. Respite offers the primary carer or family the support needed during holiday periods or short breaks and also provides the service user a positive independent way of living. Carers and families alike can be reassured their loved one is in a safe and comfortable environment.

Anyone can purchase respite care. Whether living alone, with a spouse or family.

All our care homes are located in accessible areas, decorated to a high standard, with beautiful gardened areas. Service users are cared for within a relaxed environment by staff who respect privacy and dignity at all times.

If you are worried about what life is like in a care home, you could arrange a trial stay as a temporary resident.
