Stay as long as you need
Short stays can often be extended, or become a permanent move if your family decides it’s right.
Stays can be as short as a few days or as long as several weeks, depending on availability and your family’s needs.
Clothing for the length of the stay, current medications in their original packaging, toiletries, any mobility aids, and a few personal items such as photos or a favourite blanket.
Yes. Many families use a short stay to see how their loved one settles in. If it feels right, we’ll help you plan a permanent move.
