What is Respite Care and what are the costs?
Respite care is designed to allow family caregivers to take short breaks from their important role. They can use this time to tend to their personal needs and spend quality time with other loved ones in their lives. These types of services give family caregivers space and time to manage other responsibilities without having to constantly worry about their loved one's well-being while they're away.

Respite care isn't only beneficial for family caregivers. It also gives elderly adults exceptional support with their day-to-day routines. Seniors have the opportunity to interact with someone who is ready to offer a listening ear and a shoulder to lean on, which can promote their quality of life and prevent social isolation.
The key is a caregiver must "take the oxygen first". Just as on an airplane you are instructed to take the oxygen first before you assist a loved one. Because if you are not breathing and healthy, you can't be a good caregiver. Take the oxygen. Get assistance for Visiting Angels Lake Norman.
