Respite care can be a lifeline for family caregivers and their loved ones in Lynchburg, VA. This type of home care typically involves short-term or temporary caregiving visits. These visits make it possible for family caregivers to take time away from unpaid caregiving duties—without compromising the quality of care received by their loved ones.

What is Respite Care?

Respite care is a support system for family caregivers. With other types of in-home care, professional caregivers perform the majority of caregiving duties. Respite services, meanwhile, are provided in cases where family caregivers are performing most of this work on their own. Our senior care services can help provide routine care for your loved one to avoid a family member’s caregiver burnout,
