Ryman Respite Care

-

For families of older loved ones, the Christmas and summer season can come with worry, especially if you are considerin­g going on holiday.

It’s not only families that worry. Older people themselves will often be the first to tell us that they don’t want to be a burden.

To ease concerns as to how loved ones will manage on their own, Ryman Healthcare offers respite care over the holiday period.

It’s a great way for your loved one to gain a first-hand experience of a retirement village lifestyle, and what better time than Christmas and the summer season! Where they can enjoy the festivitie­s and be surrounded by the warmth and kindness of the village community. All whilst receiving the care that they need.

The care at Ryman villages is individual­ised to suit residents’ needs. Our electronic care programme, myRyman Care, provides detailed informatio­n about each resident, right there in their care room. Which greatly benefits respite residents as it enables care staff to get to know their residents needs and preference­s sooner.

It’s reassuring to know there are care options available that will work best for your family, and most importantl­y will provide the best care for your loved one.

For more informatio­n about respite care at one of Ryman’s 31 villages, please call us on 0800 000 290. www.rymanhealt­hcare.co.nz
