Respite care at Winchester Gardens provides short-term stays in our assisted living or skilled nursing residences. It’s designed to give caregivers a break while offering loved ones access to 24/7 support, wellness programs, chef-prepared meals, and all the amenities of our 37-acre community.

Respite care provides caregivers with a break from their caregiving duties so that they can attend to other matters or get some much-needed rest. This gives them the time they need to recharge and manage stress, which helps prevent burnout and leads to better overall health.

Respite care is ideal for seniors recovering from illness, injury, or surgery, or for those whose caregivers are temporarily unavailable. It also offers a great opportunity to try out life at Winchester Gardens before considering a permanent move.

Respite care stays are flexible. Whether you need support for a few days, a couple of weeks, or longer, we work with each family to create a plan that fits their needs.

Not at all. Guests enjoy the full Winchester Gardens experience, which includes gourmet dining, enriching activities, beautiful walking paths, and wellness programming, all with the peace of mind of professional care when needed. It feels more like a vacation in a supportive community than a traditional hospital or facility stay.
