Time to Recharge. Reassurance While You Do.
Caring for someone you love can be rewarding, but everyone needs time to rest, attend to other responsibilities or simply have a little time for themselves.
VivoLuxe Family Respite Support provides trusted companionship and practical home support while a family carer takes a break. Your loved one receives friendly, familiar company in the comfort of their own home, giving you reassurance while you step away.


Family Respite Support
Is This Service Right For You?
Whether you need occasional support or a regular respite arrangement, we'll work with your family to understand your routines, preferences and what would make your time apart feel comfortable for everyone.
📅
Have appointments or commitments
and would feel reassured knowing your loved one has company while you're away.
Family Respite Support may be helpful if you:
👨👩👧
Regularly support a loved one
and would benefit from some planned time for yourself.
🤝
Need occasional additional support
alongside the help you already provide as a family.
☕️
Need time to rest and recharge
while knowing someone trusted is spending time with your loved one.
🏡
Want your loved one to remain at home
in familiar, comfortable surroundings while you take a break.
💬
Would like them to have companionship
rather than simply having someone present in the house.
The aim isn't simply to have somebody sitting in the house. We want the time together to feel
comfortable, meaningful and enjoyable.

Frequently asked questions
What is Family Respite Support?
It provides companionship and practical, non-medical home support for your loved one while you take some time away. This might allow you to rest, attend appointments, see friends or simply have some uninterrupted time for yourself.
What will they do during the visit?
That depends on what your loved one enjoys. Visits might include conversation, games, hobbies, preparing a light meal, going for a walk or simply enjoying relaxed company together.
Can respite support be arranged regularly?
Yes. Support can be arranged on a regular basis or according to your family's needs and our availability. We'll discuss the most suitable arrangement during your consultation.
Can you provide personal care while I'm away?
No. VivoLuxe currently provides non-regulated companionship and practical home support. We do not provide regulated personal care such as bathing, dressing, toileting or medication administration.
Will my loved one have the same support worker?
Wherever possible, yes. Consistency is an important part of the VivoLuxe approach because seeing a familiar person can help build trust, comfort and a genuine relationship.
Can you keep me updated while I'm away?
Where appropriate and with the person receiving support's agreement, we can arrange a simple update so you know how the visit has gone. We'll agree communication preferences when creating the support plan.
