Care service
Short-term, dependable cover at home so the person who does the caring can stop for a while.
Respite care is support arranged so that a family carer can have a break. Crucially, this is respite at home — we come to the person being cared for, in their own house. Nobody has to be moved into a residential setting for a week.
Most family carers we speak to have not had a proper break in a very long time, and have usually been told to 'look after themselves' by someone who did not offer a practical way to do it. Respite is that practical way.
For you and your family
The difference this makes for the person receiving care — and for the family around them.
Respite through Luxuricare is delivered as care visits at home, using the same visit lengths and rates as our other services. It is not residential respite in a care home — nobody moves anywhere.
Our usual daytime visits run between 6:00am and 9:00pm. Where respite needs to extend beyond that, overnight cover can be arranged according to assessed needs and staffing — a planned night visit, a sitting service, a sleeping night or a waking night. Our overnight care and live-in care pages explain how each works.
If you need cover urgently, please call us on 07720 829727 and we will tell you honestly what we can and cannot do at that moment.

Local to you
We deliver this service from our base at Bretby Business Park, which sits between Burton upon Trent and Swadlincote. In practice that means short journeys, a team that knows the local roads, and an office you could actually visit.
Coverage across the surrounding villages depends on where our team is working on a given day, so please ask us about your specific address rather than assuming either way.
Neighbourhoods we cover
Respite Care at Home is charged at our standard published visit rates — the same clear prices as every other visiting service we provide.

Reviews
David HorneBurton upon Trent
“Lyndsey formed a lovely relationship with my Dad and was kind and supportive with my Mum despite Mums mood swings and increasing aggressive behaviour. She was always reassuring and kept me well informed, appreciating my difficulties following surgery and not living locally. Her professional manner helped me make difficult decisions when it became apparent my parents needs couldn’t be met in their home.
JoannaBurton upon Trent
“I cant thank my dads amazing carers enough for all they do for him and my mum & the massive help they are to me. Today they have taken my dad on his birthday trip to Twycross zoo. he’s been so excited and is having the best time with them these ladies didn’t have to do this they wanted to because they care.”

“The gentleman pictured is my uncle. It’s been a rough 12 months, diagnosed with Parkinson’s and lost his wife of 52 years in January. Lyndsey was introduced to myself and my uncle around 10 months ago and it’s difficult to put into words how positive her impact has been. It isn’t just ‘care’ but ‘caring’.
Most people we support use more than one of these, often in the same visit.
Familiar surroundings, steady routines and patient support for people living with dementia.
Respectful help with washing, dressing and daily routines, at the pace that suits you.
Conversation, company and a reliable friendly face that keeps life connected.
More notice always helps us schedule properly, but please ask whatever the timescale. Rather than quote a fixed notice period we cannot guarantee, we would rather you call and get a straight answer about that week.
Yes, and for most families a regular weekly or twice-weekly visit is far more useful than an occasional block. It is easier to keep going when you know a break is coming.
Yes. At the assessment we write down how things are currently done — meals, timings, preferences, the little rules that matter — and that becomes the care plan.
Yes, subject to assessment and staffing. Daytime respite is delivered as visiting care calls — the shortest we offer on its own is 30 minutes, and our usual rounds run between 6:00am and 9:00pm. Beyond that we can arrange a planned night visit, a sitting service, a sleeping night, a waking night or a live-in package. What is possible depends on the assessment and on who is available, so please call and we will give you a straight answer about your dates rather than a promise we cannot keep.

Tell us what is happening and we will tell you honestly whether we can help.
A free care assessment is a conversation in your own home, not a sales visit. You are under no obligation to arrange anything afterwards.
