As you help a loved one maintain their independence at home, you may find you feel more exhausted than you expected. Caregiving requires physical, mental, and emotional energy, and it is important to replenish that energy on a regular basis through time off. When you set up respite care services from Visiting Angels^® , you can enjoy a guilt-free break from your duties with the knowledge that your loved one is in the compassionate hands of a senior care professional.

What is Respite Care?

At Visiting Angels, we understand many family caregivers are unaware that respite care is an option they can take advantage of, and we're here to help these individuals find balance in their busy lifestyles. Through these services, we provide short-term assistance for seniors while their family caregivers are away. These temporary care visits ensure all of the senior's needs are met so the family caregiver doesn't have to worry about their loved one as they enjoy their alone time. The goal is for family caregivers to have the opportunity to practice self-care, tend to other priorities in their lives, and create a more sustainable approach to caregiving.
