RESPITE CARE
There are many families who have the resources within their own home to provide caregiving services for a loved one, but who need a break from time to time and respite care is a great service for these caregivers. Caregiving can take a physical and emotional toll on everyone involved, including the person who is getting the help. As such, it is important for the caregiver to find time to get away and recharge. It also gives the person receiving the care a break from feeling like a burden to those providing the care. This is where Living Care Home Services can help.
Our caregivers themselves are made to take time off, and understand the value of doing so. By doing so themselves, it allows them to more easily fill in for a family member who needs time off and identify why they need a break. Providing respite for a family caregiver allows everyone involved space to get re-energized and gain a fresh perspective on the situation at hand. Without taking time to step back and look at the situation as it is today, both the caregiver and the person receiving the care may lapse into a negative routine which is not healthy for anyone involved in the family.
Respite Care can be for a day, overnight, a week or a month. There is no set amount of time you must use this service. It is designed to assist you in your mission to help a loved one, not replace you in that role. We provide Respite Care on a regular basis for families who take vacations, attend weddings or graduations etc., go on business trips and for others who just need a break.
Taking a break benefits everyone. Let us, let you, take a break.
