When you need a break, Masonic Care WA is there.
Respite care is a good choice for people who need additional support but are not yet ready or in the position to move into residential aged care. Respite care also provides a much-needed break for carers by offering temporary care services for an older adult.
Masonic Care WA offers overnight respite care, allowing carers to take an extended break while knowing that their loved one is being cared for overnight. The individual receiving care will stay in one of our Residential Care homes where all their needs, from meals to medical monitoring, are taken care of.
To ensure we provide the highest standard of care tailored to individual needs, we invite you to contact our friendly staff. By discussing your requirements, we can offer personalised guidance and update you on the latest respite care options available. Let us help you find the best care solution for your loved one.

How do I access MCWA's respite services?
It’s essential to have an assessment completed by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) to determine the type and level of care you or your loved one needs. Financial considerations may apply, including a potential co-payment depending on your financial situation. If you’re a carer, you may also need to meet certain criteria to qualify for respite services. The specifics can vary, so we highly recommend that you contact our friendly staff to explore the options that best fit your needs. We’re more than happy to guide you through the process and answer any questions you may have.
