Frequently asked questions

Is respite subsidised?

Yes. Respite stays at MOH-licensed nursing homes use the same portable-subsidy framework as long-term placements.

How far in advance do I need to book respite?

It varies by home. Some accept walk-in bookings; others need 4–8 weeks' notice. Book early during festive periods.
