What respite involves

Respite is time apart from your usual care arrangements: support somewhere that feels like a change of pace for you, and a genuine rest for the people who support you day to day. It isn't a sign anything has gone wrong — it's how good arrangements stay good.

Respite can be support at home or a short stay somewhere suited to you. Under the NDIS it's commonly funded as Short Term Accommodation and Assistance, or as in-home support; the NDIA decides what your plan includes.

What's included

  • Your usual support needs still met
  • Your routine, preferences and pace respected
  • Support at home, or a short stay
  • A planned break for families and carers

Respite around Baulkham Hills

Baulkham Hills is a mainly residential suburb in the Hills District, about 28 km north-west of the Sydney CBD, largely within The Hills Shire with a small section in the City of Parramatta. Baulkham Hills Junction, where Windsor Road, Old Northern Road and Seven Hills Road meet, sits in the suburb, which is bounded to the south by Junction Road near the Hills Motorway.

For families in Baulkham Hills, respite often starts at home: support in your own home while a carer has a break, keeping your routine and your suburb the same.

A short stay is the other option. It won't necessarily be in Baulkham Hills itself — we'll talk with you about what's suitable and available for your dates.

Respite can also cover a gap when a carer needs time for their own health, such as a planned stay at Westmead Hospital (Westmead).

Is there a respite house in Baulkham Hills?

Not necessarily, and we won't suggest otherwise. Respite can happen in your own home in Baulkham Hills, or as a short stay somewhere suited to you, which may be in another suburb. Ask us what's available for your dates.

Do you provide in-home respite in Baulkham Hills?

Yes. We support people in Baulkham Hills 2153 and nearby suburbs such as Northmead. Which worker can help, and when, depends on the days and times you need, so tell us your suburb and routine when you enquire and we'll confirm what we can arrange.

No. It's a change of pace for the participant and a rest for the family or carers who usually provide support.
