Visiting Angels knows how hard it is to care for a loved one. A lot of the time, respite care saves the lives of family caregivers and the people they love. In-home health care and caregiving visits that last only briefly are every day. While not lowering the level of care their loved ones receive, these visits give family caregivers a break from their unpaid duties.

Visiting Angels Provides Respite Care to Families in Temecula, Menifee, and Nearby Cities

If you're one of the 40+ million Americans who act as a family caregiver, this type of care can make a difference. Family caregivers are at such a high risk of physical and mental exhaustion that the term "caregiver burnout" is now commonplace.

 

Respite care programs can help family caregivers take a break from caring for a loved one and keep them from getting burned out. Most of the work is done by trained experts for other types of in-home care. There are relief services for family caregivers when they can do most of the work independently.

Let's say that giving care daily or every week has become too much for you, and you need some time to rest and recover. This is when Visiting Angels can help take care of your loved one while you take care of yourself.

 

In-Home Caregiver Services

Every worker has undergone a strict screening process at Visiting Angels in your area. We also go to great lengths to ensure every client gets the individualized care they need. That is always the case, no matter how long or kind of care we provide, even interim and short-term help.

Temporary or short-term care is often provided as a break. Regular relief visits can happen once a week, twice a month, or once a month. You can get the adult care services your loved one needs from us because we have open hours and plan care ahead of time.

Some of the most common tasks performed by our caregivers include:

• Light housekeeping
• Meal preparation
• Laundry
• Medication reminders
• Assistance with activities of daily living (such as dressing, grooming, and bathing)

Aside from basic services like personal care and partner care, our area agencies also provide a range of specialized services, such as care for people with Alzheimer's disease and dementia. If your loved one needs specialized care, skilled workers who are experienced in these areas can come to visit for a short time.
