Respite Care

At Angusfield House Care Home in Aberdeen, we offer comprehensive respite care designed to give both carers and their loved ones the chance to rest, recharge and enjoy high-quality support in safe surroundings. Whether you need a short break after illness, recovery following hospital treatment, or time away so a family carer can tend to their responsibilities, our experienced team provides the same professional attention and comfort that every resident enjoys.

Set in the peaceful West End, Angusfield House features modern en-suite bedrooms, beautiful gardens and a vibrant activities programme. Our respite care guests are treated as part of our family and will equally benefit from freshly prepared meals, social events and companionship throughout their stay.

What is Respite Care?

Respite care is a form of temporary support that offers relief to family members or carers who usually provide full-time care. It allows carers to take a necessary break, knowing their loved one is in good hands and receiving the help they need with daily routines, rehabilitation, or social interaction. Respite care can last from just a few weeks to several months, with personalised care plans tailored to individual needs.

The benefits of respite care go beyond providing time off. It helps reduce stress for carers and their families, strengthens relationships and brings new faces and experiences to the person being cared for. For the resident, it can mean a refreshing change of scenery, the chance to join group activities and the reassurance of professional support in a welcoming environment.

It is also a great opportunity for those considering a care home for the long-term future. Enjoying a few weeks of respite care can help you decide if it is the best place to care for yourself or a loved one during their next chapter.
