Whether it's for a few hours, a day, or longer periods, respite care provides family caregivers with the opportunity to take time for themselves while their loved ones are cared for by trained professionals. At CareGivers of America, we understand that caregiving can be demanding and exhausting, both physically and emotionally. Respite care services are designed to provide temporary relief and support for family caregivers, allowing them to take a break and recharge while ensuring their loved ones receive the care they need.
Respite care services allow you to rest up and re-charge those batteries. By properly taking care of your own mental health and wellbeing you can continue to care for your loved one. Short term care is perfect for those who may only need periodic home care services, short-shift caregivers, or services during a specific time of the day or night. Caregivers can help with keeping the home clean and organized to provide a safe and comfortable environment. Most family caregivers eventually feel overworked and overwhelmed.
The tendency when that happens is to invest more and more time into their care. When not adequately addressed, caregiver burnout will eventually affect the health and well-being of both you and your care recipient. Respite care is a commonly used term that describes a temporary break for caregivers. Those caregiving breaks can be as long or short as needed, whether for a few hours, days, weeks, or longer.
CareGivers of America is the ideal solution for elderly or disabled individuals who want to maintain their independence and dignity by continuing to live in the comfort of their own homes. Getting everybody on the same page so your loved one receives the nurturing they deserve starts with a careful consultation. Based on that discussion, our care coordinators will help you customize a plan of care that best aligns with your needs, lifestyle, and budget.

Having a friendly and trusted companion around makes every day at home brighter. At CareGivers of America, the companion caregivers we refer enjoy spending time with seniors. While there, they can also perform services ranging from assistance with light housekeeping and routine exercise to facilitating socialization with peers. If your senior loved one needs help maintaining their household, light housekeeping services can keep their home environment clean, comfortable, safe, and healthy.
