To us it's personal

Taking care of your own needs and wellbeing can help you maintain a healthier balance when supporting a loved one has become a big part of your daily routine. Studies have found that at least 1 in 8 people throughout the UK provide some form of unpaid care, with carers experiencing a greater risk of anxiety or depression, so finding pockets of time to focus on yourself is crucial to avoid these issues. Home Instead’s Romsey team provides trusted respite care that gives you the breathing space to rest, manage other commitments, or simply enjoy some time that belongs only to you. Support can be arranged around your lifestyle, whether you would benefit from a regular weekly break or occasional help during especially busy periods. Everything we do meets Care Quality Commission regulations, and your Care Professional can provide personalised assistance and companionship while respecting your loved one’s usual choices and routines. With our help, you can step away with confidence knowing their safety, dignity and comfort will always be our top priorities.

Choosing Home Instead Romsey for personalised home care

We always want to make sure your loved one has an enjoyable day even when you aren't around to share it with them, so when arranging respite care, we aim to find a dedicated Care Professional who can engage with the things they like while respecting when they prefer their own space. We match them according to things like their interests, personality and communication style as well as their specific health and care requirements so everything feels comfortable for them while you're gone. Whether it’s a one-off visit or an ongoing respite arrangement, your loved one's Care Professional will take the time to learn which routines matter most to them, how they prefer to receive assistance at home, and what helps them feel most comfortable throughout the day. With support, they might like to take a walk around War Memorial Park, join an activity hosted by Age Concern Romsey & District, or just stay home doing a little painting or preparing a favourite meal while they have an extra pair of hands around to help. Whatever they would like to do with their time, our highly trained Care Professionals can provide the services they need to feel safe and comfortable at home, such as personal care, dementia care, diabetes monitoring or home help. With your loved one free to enjoy their day as they want to, you can give yourself permission to rest, recharge and return when you are ready.

Our Romsey Team is With You Through Every Step

Respite has a lot of benefits for your loved one too, including the freedom to experience the day differently when they are so used to their regular routine. They might enjoy talking to someone with another perspective, spending time doing an activity that interests them, or having support to go out in their community without relying solely on you. These experiences can bring something new and exciting to their day while strengthening their confidence and ability to make independent choices. Becoming comfortable with another Care Professional can also give your loved one a wider network of support, so they can feel secure knowing there are other people available to help them when family members need time away. Our experienced local team in Romsey helps behind the scenes by organising visits, overseeing arrangements, and keeping in touch with you throughout so you always know what's happening with your loved one back at home. When they are able to enjoy the freedom of making their own plans for the day and you can enjoy stepping away for a while, regular respite can create a balance that allows you both to feel more supported and capable in the long run.
