Getting Respite Care Through Disability Providers in Newcastle

Providing care for a loved one with a disability can be incredibly rewarding—but it can also be physically and emotionally demanding. Respite care allows primary carers to rest, attend to personal needs, or take a short break, while knowing their loved one is in safe, professional hands.

EnableU offers flexible, reliable respite care services across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland, and nearby areas. Our trained support workers are available for short-term in-home care or community-based activities, helping participants stay comfortable and engaged while their regular carers recharge.

What Is Respite Care?

Respite care is a short-term support arrangement that temporarily replaces the primary caregiver. It can be planned in advance or arranged urgently, depending on the family’s needs.

With EnableU, respite can be delivered:

  • In the person’s own home (daytime, overnight or weekends)
  • At a respite house or facility (through our partnered providers)
  • Through supervised outings and community access

Why Families Choose Respite

Respite is not a luxury—it’s a necessity for long-term sustainability in caregiving. Common reasons families request respite include:

  • Carer exhaustion or burnout prevention
  • Work or personal commitments
  • Emergency situations (hospitalisation, travel, etc.)
  • Time to attend to other children or family matters

It’s also an opportunity for participants to experience greater independence, meet new support workers, and try new routines or activities.

Is Respite Covered by the NDIS?

Yes. The NDIS funds respite care under several categories, including:

  • Short-Term Accommodation (STA)
  • Assistance with Daily Living (in-home respite)
  • Support Coordination (to arrange respite plans)

Our team can help you identify which funding options are available in your plan—and if you don’t yet have respite included, we’ll help you prepare for your next plan reassessment.

Our Approach to Respite Care

We provide personalised support for both the participant and their family:

  • Thorough matching with experienced support workers
  • Respectful, consistent care routines and communication
  • Safety-first planning and emergency protocols
  • Cultural awareness and language-matching if requested

Respite should feel like a smooth, respectful extension of your regular care environment—not a disruption.
