Caring for a loved one can be a highly demanding and stressful responsibility, and no one is equipped to do it full-time without some help. Just like the loved ones they care for, family members need support and attention to maintain their own health and well-being. Respite care, which provides family members with the opportunity for a temporary rest from their caregiving duties, is designed to do just that.
Respite care for loved ones provides short-term breaks for family members. By receiving respite care, a family member can relieve their stress, renew their energy and restore a sense of balance to their lives. Respite care provides a period of relief from family care giving duties, while their loved ones continue to receive the care they require in a safe, caring and professional environment.
