At our nursing home we also provide respite care, a short-term care option for individuals who require a break from providing care or who need time to recover after a recent sickness, accident or hospital procedure.

We recognise that burnout can occasionally affect both caregivers and individuals who need assistance. A period of respite guarantees that care is provided around-the-clock and that residents can take advantage of all the amenities and social opportunities on offer to them. At Struan Lodge Care Home, we are pleased to assist, no matter what.

We provide short-term respite care for anyone who requires it, with a minimum respite stay of 3 weeks.
