Respite care for adults

Carers - What help is available?

We can offer a range of services to carers who are assessed as needing them. Any help provided will be subject to an assessment of need. Depending on the service, this may require an assessment of the needs of the carer or an assessment of the needs of the person the carer looks after, or both. Some services may also require the consent of both the carer and the person being looked after. Services that may be available include.

Cumbria County Council provide respite care as part of their Adult Social Care.
