Family caregivers who do not have a helping hand with their responsibilities can experience physical and emotional difficulties that eventually lead to burnout. However, something as simple as time off from their role can make a major difference in how they feel. The respite care services delivered by our team at Visiting Angels^® Camarillo are designed to ensure family caregivers can avoid burnout and have a more fulfilling experience of caregiving.

What is Respite Care?`

Respite care can be thought of as a form of home care that is provided on a temporary basis or for a short-term period. The aim of this type of care is to give family caregivers a much-needed breather. For some, taking a break may simply mean having a few hours off from caregiving to visit friends or run errands. For others, this may take the form of a guilt-free out-of-town vacation. As our services are flexible, we can accommodate many different scheduling preferences and special requests in the Camarillo area.
