Caring for a loved one is often a very rewarding experience. However, caregiving can also be intensely draining on both your emotional and physical energy. It’s important for family caregivers to fit in time for rest and rejuvenation whenever possible. At Visiting Angels^® Bensalem, our respite care services enable family caregivers to take time off when needed so that they can come back to their caregiving duties refreshed. These services are available for elderly adults and their family caregivers in Bensalem, Lower Bucks County, Langhorne, Bristol, and nearby communities in the NE Philadelphia area.

Why Choose Respite Care in Bensalem

Without outside support, family caregivers often encounter the consequences of caregiver burnout. Caregiver burnout typically takes the form of negative emotions and anxiety stemming from social isolation and emotional exhaustion. When family caregivers have the support of a respite care provider from Visiting Angels Bensalem, they can avoid debilitating burnout and have peace of mind that their loved one is receiving high-quality care, even when they are not personally there to administer to their care needs.

Types of Respite Care Offered in Bensalem

Our senior care options include a wide range of services that aim to assist seniors with aging in place, helping them do so for as long as possible. These services can include physical support with personal care routines, emotional support through compassionate companionship, and assistance with homemaking activities like meal preparation and light chores.

Your loved one’s personalized care plan can include care options such as the following:

• Temporary Care. Our professional care providers step in when family caregivers are unavailable, whether that’s because of an emergency situation or planned vacation.
• Part-Time Care. With part-time care, family caregivers can schedule a care provider to come by a few hours per week to take over their caregiving duties.
• Support Care. Support care offers ongoing assistance with caregiving by having a professional care provider work alongside the family caregiver to share the burden of day-to-day tasks.
