Seniors Respite
Flexible respite care tailored to your needs, supporting both you and your carer with services designed for you.
Because everyone deserves a break
Do you have a carer who’s always there for you? Even the most amazing carers need a day off from time to time. That’s where genU’s respite care steps in!
Respite care provides both you and your carer with a well-earned break while ensuring you receive the support you need. Our services are designed to fit your lifestyle and can include home-based care, day programs, residential care and companionship.
We currently offer seniors respite at The Lodge in Ocean Grove.
