CONTINUUM OF CARE
Retirement home living is all about supporting people in living their lives to the fullest. After all, the retirement years are meant to be fun, fulfilling and memorable; it’s also a time filled with purpose and meaning.
Care for
Every Need

Short Term &
Respite Care
Want a trial stay to see whether a retirement home is right without any pressure to make a long-term decision? Or a respite when looking for a comfortable place to stay and receive support temporarily.
What is the difference between short-term and respite care?
Short-term and respite care are a wonderful opportunity to actively participate in all the benefits retirement living has to offer in an inviting environment with no pressure to make a long-term decision. Lasting anywhere from a few weeks to a few months, a short-term stay, also known as a trial stay, is the perfect way to get a glimpse at everyday life and decide if retirement living is right for you. Try it out for yourself.
When you or your loved one wishes to visit a retirement home for a short-term reason, we call it a short-term stay. Maybe you would like to get a feel for what retirement living is all about. Maybe your home is being renovated and you need a place to stay in the meantime. Or perhaps you are in town for a week visiting a loved one living in one of our retirement residences and wish to be close to them.
When you or a loved one is looking for a comfortable place to stay and receive support while a caregiver is away, perhaps on vacation, ill, in need of a short break, or you need some extra assistance after your own illness or surgery we call it respite care.
Both are classified officially as temporary stays – and no matter the circumstance, we are here to help you.
