When to Seek Out Home Care at Visiting Angels Helena

Many families first come upon the concept of home care after trying to care for a loved one on their own. Although it’s normal to want to be by your loved one’s side as they cope with the challenges of aging, it’s not always possible to provide the level of support they need without external assistance.

Family caregivers often become completely overwhelmed by their long list of responsibilities, leading to burnout. Burnout not only has negative effects on the well-being of family caregivers, but can also affect the quality of care they’re able to provide.

It’s important to ask for help before you get to the point of burnout. By scheduling respite care visits for a few hours per week or while you go on vacation, you can ensure you have time to care for yourself and tend to other priorities in your life.

Not all families have the ability to plan for their loved ones’ care needs in advance. When life takes an unexpected turn and you need assistance with your loved one’s care, you can count on us to respond promptly to your request. We can step in during a family emergency, provide transitional care for a hospital discharge, or assist with relocations.
