</table><h3>Who can access respite care?</h3><p>Anyone who undertakes a caring role for a friend or relative who is an older person or has a learning or physical disability or suffers a mental health problem may be able to access respite care services.</p><h3>Cost Implications</h3><p>We do have a charging policy for home care and residential care services. How much you will pay will depend on what benefits, savings, or income you have.</p><h3>Who decides if I/We are able to access these services?</h3><p>Respite needs should be identified via an assessment under the NHS and Community Care Act 1990, which includes assessments of carers' needs under the Carers Recognition and Services Act 1995. Your care manager will carry out this assessment. You should contact your allocated care manager and discuss your respite needs.</p><h3>What do I do if I don't have an allocated Care Manager? </h3><p>If you do not have an allocated care manager you should, in the first instance make a referral to us. We will record all your information and pass this to the appropriate community team who will then contact you to arrange an assessment.</p><p>If you require any further information, please use the contact details above.</p><span class="gen">email address here</span><span class="gen">phone number here</span><span class="gen">sms phone number here</span><span class="gen">fax number here</span><span class="gen">minicom number here</span><span class="gen">postal address here</span><h3>
