Please tell me if there are Respite facilities for short stays who have the staff trained to care for my dear husband who has CAA Aged 70.

2 ResponsesHe cannot speak, feed himself or move independently at all and he is incontinent . He is totally dependant, very high care. Aged Care is not an option for him. He is aware and alert and enjoys being spoken to normally, and his showers, etc etc which is very rare in Aged Care. Is there anywhere suitable with trained staff for him to stay short term. Don't need Chandeliers! Very unsatisfactory care for people in his condition in these facilities. As his Fulltime Carer I have a couple of medical issues needing attention but without family to help fill the void if I leave him to go into hospital, my needs are constantly postponed. I cannot subject him to Aged Care Treatment as it is.
