Caring Support for You, Peace of Mind for Loved Ones
At Transition Life Care, we understand that everyone needs a break sometimes — whether you’re a carer who needs time to rest and recharge, or an individual seeking a change of scenery, new experiences, or extra support.
Our Respite Services are here to provide safe, high-quality care when you or your loved ones need it most.
What is Respite?
Respite care is short-term, temporary support that allows primary carers to take a break while ensuring the person they care for continues to receive the support they need in a safe and comfortable environment.
For NDIS participants, respite may also be referred to as Short-Term Accommodation (STA) and is designed to provide:
- New opportunities for social connection
- A break from the regular routine
- Increased independence and confidence
- Relief and rest for families and carers
What We Offer
At Transition Life Care, our respite services are flexible and person-centred. We tailor our support to your goals, preferences, and care requirements.
Our respite options include:
- In-home respite: Our trained support workers come to your home, allowing you to remain in familiar surroundings while receiving quality care.
- Community-based respite: We support outings, day activities, and skill-building opportunities while giving your carer a break.
- Referrals to trusted STA providers: If you’re seeking overnight or multi-day respite outside the home, we can connect you with reliable Short-Term Accommodation partners across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW.
