Caregiver Respite
What is Respite Services?
Respite services provides relief to primary Caregivers (e.g. a spouse, son, daughter, friend, or relative) a break from providing supportive and supervisory care to someone who is dependent on their presence or assistance. Respite can be for a few hours or a few days depending on the individual situation. It can be provided occasionally, or periodically on a regular basis.
Respite will enable Caregivers to:
deal with a crisis
take a planned, brief absence, such as a vacation
deal with their own medical issues (e.g., appointments, procedures)
have an opportunity to rest, relax and catch up on sleep
spend quality time with friends and family
take time for themselves to exercise, shop, do personal care, and run errands
Respite services, which we can provide to when Caregivers are absent include:
