Respite Care
Relax, recharge, and enjoy new experiences
At Sunshine Community Support Services, we know that both participants and their families sometimes need a break. Our NDIS Respite Care at our brand new beautiful Imbil house in the Mary Valley offers a safe, supportive, and welcoming environment where participants can relax, try new activities, and enjoy a change of scenery.
With personalised support and plenty of opportunities for fun and relaxation, our respite stays are designed to give participants a positive experience while offering families and carers peace of mind.
What is Respite Care?
Respite care gives participants short term accommodation and support, allowing families and carers time to rest while ensuring their loved one is cared for in a safe and supportive environment. It’s also a chance for participants to develop independence, social skills, and friendships.
