Respite Care

Renewal

There are many reasons people take advantage of short-term respite care at The Edgewood Centre.

Some are recovering from a hospital stay and need extra help to ease the transition from hospital to home. Others are interested in Edgewood for long-term or dementia care and want to fully experience the lifestyle before making a decision. Still others are caregivers, those champions of the most all-encompassing job on earth, who need a break or have other obligations that must temporarily take precedence.

Whatever the reason for the respite, our short stay residents tell us how quickly they feel right at home.

Peace of Mind

At The Edgewood Centre, our respite services are administered by staff who know that transitions, even temporary ones, are best handled with tender, loving attention. Because care at Edgewood is resident-driven, maintaining comfortable routines and preferences from home is easy.

Families can rest assured knowing that medical needs and dietary requirements will be handled by a highly qualified team of nurses, doctors, caregivers, dieticians, therapists and support staff.

Resort Amenities

Residents who come for respite care enjoy all the amenities available to Edgewood’s full time residents including dining services, housekeeping, laundry and an extensive activities program.

Respite residents may enjoy bus trips, live entertainment, parties, exercise classes, and Edgewood’s unique wellness program. 

Daily Tours

The most valuable amenity we offer at Edgewood, by far, is the respect and love with which we shower our residents. We would feel deeply honored to know and care for your loved one in that same fashion.
