Respite Care in the Comfort of Home in Medford

When an aging parent can no longer live independently without assistance, adult children are often quick to step in and provide the care they need. But many family caregivers are adding this responsibility on top of other commitments that can’t be put on hold, such as full-time jobs and caring for their own families.

When the stress and exhaustion of caregiving become too much to handle, you are at risk of experiencing caregiver burnout. Burnout can manifest itself in many ways, including anxiety, depression, and resentment of your loved one. It can even hinder your ability to properly care for your loved one.

If you are overwhelmed with the amount of home care a loved one needs, need scheduled time for yourself each week, or are worried about who will care for your loved one while you’re on vacation, Visiting Angels Medford can help. Our respite care services can provide compassionate care in the comfort of your loved one’s home when you need a helping hand or time for yourself, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day.

Respite Care from Visiting Angels Medford

At Visiting Angels Medford, our overall goal is to make aging in place possible for seniors in our area. This includes supporting local family caregivers and helping them provide exceptional care for their loved ones. To meet the individual needs of seniors, we offer a wide range of customizable home care services. These services make everyday life simpler and more comfortable for seniors who wish to age in place.

Here are some of the services included in our respite care program:

• Light housekeeping
• Mobility assistance
• Respectful aid with personal care tasks
• Memory care
• Care for chronic illness
• Running errands
• Companionship
• Meal preparation
• Transportation to appointments

When stepping in to provide respite for family caregivers, it is important that we provide seamless care. Your loved one deserves to receive the same high-quality care at all times. That's why we work closely with you to create a personalized care plan for them. By detailing how you help your loved one, we can combine our services to offer the same level of care while you are away.

The key to respite care is scheduling it when you need it most. Taking breaks from your caregiving duties is important, and we understand that those breaks need to be carefully scheduled. Our caregivers at Visiting Angels Medford are available around the clock, making it possible to take time off as needed.

Our care schedules include:

• Temporary Care. When you can’t be there due to an emergency situation, vacation, or other occasional situation, temporary care will ensure your loved one has the companionship and attention they need until you return.  
• Part-Time Care. Part-time care gives family caregivers regularly-scheduled respite, usually for a few hours each week.   
• Support Care. Support care brings in a professional caregiver to work alongside the family caregiver, providing assistance and support.

Another benefit of our care is its adaptability. As a team of caregivers ourselves, we understand the fragile nature of elderly care. Not only will your loved one's care needs change over time, but your respite needs may change as well. We make it easy to change your loved one's care plan and schedule. Simply give our team a call to make updates, and we will take care of the rest.
