Temporary stay
Professional care for a season
Not every stay is permanent. Sometimes your loved one needs professional care while recovering, or the family needs a break. At Casa Palmira the minimum stay is one month.
Who is it for?
When a temporary stay makes sense
Post-surgery recovery
Professional care and supervision while your loved one recovers from surgery or a hospital stay.
Caregiver respite
When the family caregiver needs rest, has their own health to attend to, or a personal matter to resolve.
Travel or absences
If the family has to be away for work or holidays, your older adult is not left alone or in improvised hands.
A trial period
Getting to know the residence from the inside before deciding on a permanent stay.
The minimum stay is one month
We work with stays of one month and up. That time allows for the initial assessment, adjusting medication and therapy, and letting your loved one genuinely settle into the routine and community of the house, rather than a passing visit. If you need a shorter period, message us and we'll gladly point you in the right direction.

Common questions
Questions about temporary stays
What is the minimum stay?
One month. We work with stays of one month and up, so your loved one has time to settle into a real care routine. If you need a shorter period, message us and we'll gladly point you in the right direction.

No. Your loved one joins the same routine: 24-hour nursing, weekly medical review, physical therapy, supervised meals and community activities.
How far in advance should I book?
As early as possible. Temporary stays depend on room availability, so contacting us early improves the chances of reserving the spot for the dates you need.
Does it work as a trial before a permanent stay?
Yes, and for many families it is the calmest way to decide: your loved one gets to know the team and the house before making a final decision.
Can I see the residence beforehand?
Yes. You can schedule a visit on WhatsApp and tour the facilities, see the rooms and meet the team before starting any paperwork. Visiting hours are from 10:00 to 16:00.
How much does a temporary stay cost?
The cost depends on each resident's care needs. The best step is to message us on WhatsApp or schedule a visit so we can give you personalised information, with no commitment.
