Rowley's Rest is a nursing home specialising in neuro-trauma care and rehabilitation as well as respite care. If you are in a position to look after a loved one that suffers from traumatic brain injury, you know how exhausting it can be to care for them constantly. Although it is beneficial for these individuals to stay at home in a familiar environment, the physical, emotional and financial consequences for the family caregiver can be overwhelming without some support. Although the care the patient received at home might be of a good standard, there are additional benefits when it comes to respite care. With respite care the patient is able to interact with other patients with a similar condition and/or background and to participate in social workshops. The busy lifestyle and added stress can also have an adverse effect on the care giver. This can include below average health and lack of social interaction associated with continuous care giving. In turn this can have a negative effect on the patient in the long run.
