What is “respite care”?
Respite care is a specialised service in which a disabled person is cared for while the caregiver and/or family take a break in order to be able to recharge their batteries and continue with the demanding task of care giving. This is vital as the stress of constant caring for a disabled person is extremely draining and physically demanding.
How is Shalom Respite Care Centre managed?
It is managed by a committee of professional people who are parents and friends of Shalom. The staff comprises of two registered Staff Nurses and well trained compassionate care workers who have been with us for many years.
