Supporting carers to rest, recharge, and sustain their important role — while your loved one receives safe, compassionate care from our qualified team.
Get Started — Free ConsultationRespite care provides temporary relief for family members and informal carers who support a person with disability. Caring for someone you love is rewarding — but it can also be exhausting. Respite gives carers the time and space to rest, attend to their own needs, or simply recharge.
FollowCare provides flexible respite options — in your home, in the community, or as part of a planned activity. Our support workers are warm, professional, and experienced in providing consistent, reliable care that families can trust.
Respite is not just for carers. It also gives the person receiving support an opportunity to develop relationships, build independence, and enjoy new activities.

In-home and community respite is funded under Assistance with Daily Life. Overnight or multi-day respite may be funded under STA (also called respite accommodation) — check your plan or speak to your Support Coordinator.
