Respite Care Services in Sacramento

When Is It Time?

If you are providing care for your aging loved one, there may come a time when you need assistance or a break. Our respite care services help family caregivers find balance and rest. Keep reading below to learn more about respite care and how Visiting Angels^® Sacramento can help.

Respite care involves a caregiver stepping in and providing care for your loved one. This allows you to take a much-needed break from time to time. For many caregivers, respite care can help prevent burnout.

You may be wondering when is the right time to enlist respite care services from Visiting Angels Sacramento. Here are four signs that indicate a need:

• Your loved one's needs are increasing. If your loved one's needs exceed your abilities or availability, respite care can help.
• You are feeling burnt out. Burnout affects many caregivers. If you feel exhausted or become negligent with your caregiving duties, respite care allows you to take a break and regroup.
• Your health is at risk. Frequent illness or injury can be a sign that you are overexerting yourself and need a break.
• You have other responsibilities or career aspirations. Caring for your loved one is an honor, but it can also take you away from other goals and aspirations. Seeking respite will give you time for both.
