When your duties as an unpaid caregiver for a loved one leave you feeling exhausted, it's time to reach out for help. Respite care from Visiting Angels^® Northeast Phoenix can help you get time back in your day for yourself. We strive to offer a lifeline for overwhelmed family caregivers who simply need a break but don't want to compromise the quality of their loved one's care.

What is Respite Care?

In contrast to many other forms of senior care, respite care does not replace family caregivers with a professional care provider in Northeast Phoenix. Instead, it ensures family caregivers are supported in their responsibilities. These individuals continue to perform the caregiving duties of their choosing but can have a helping hand with those that are more complicated or can request time off whenever it's needed.

This approach to care can dramatically reduce the risk of burnout and make the task of caregiving more manageable and sustainable. Whether you choose to have one of our care professionals support your loved one while you go on vacation or you request regular respite visits, we'll make sure you don't have to face your responsibilities alone.
