Our
Short-Stay Respite program provides a
break for caregivers.
SHORT-STAY RESPITE
It's okay to need a break from your caregiving role. This program temporarily provides care and a room at the Oakville Senior Citizens Residence while you're away.
A HOME AWAY FROM HOME
Our Central Registry staff, including a Respite Advisor and Care Coordinators, help you access the respite care you need to maintain a healthy balance between caring and recharging.
