Short breaks / respite care services

Respite care is a short break which could mean either a couple of hours, overnight, a weekend, a week, or longer, which provides a break for the person and their carer.

We provide the following short break/respite care services to older people in the Falkirk area:

  • Summerford House, Camelon (older people)
  • Grahamston House, Falkirk (dementia care)

We also use other independent resources in the area.

For more information please refer to the short breaks bureau|, or contact the Community Care team at your local social work office| for more details.
