Caring for our loved ones can make it difficult for a Carer to have a holiday too. This may be due to the high level of care that our loved ones require or the anxiety of leaving them in the hands of “strangers”.

However, regardless of the job we do, we all need some time to ourselves to recharge our batteries and be in a better state of mind to make a difference. Therefore as you take a deserved break and our staff step into your shoes, you will have the assurance that the high quality of care accustomed to your loved ones will not be compromised. You will be actively involved in the induction of our staff members be it a healthcare Assistant or a Support Worker to ensure their full understanding of your loved one’s needs. This will give you the opportunity to meet with your potential Carers before commencement of our service.

In addition, by giving your all to those whom you love dearly may mean giving up on your hobbies, meeting up with friends or some quiet time to yourself. That is why our holiday package also covers short periods, for example an afternoon in the week or weekends, a day out shopping with friends or an evening out to watch a favourite movie
Rest assured that in your absence Leymar will uphold and maintain the high standards of care that you have set.

Whether the role of being a Carer is taken on by necessity or choice, all carers are special people who are to be admired for their selfless dedication to another’s well-being. The very nature of being a Carer demands that someone else’s needs are often put first and the job can be both physically and emotionally draining. Although often overlooked, Carers need to consider their health and support too.
