JUMP TO: Respite Care | How it Helps Seniors | Get Started

If you're looking for respite care near you, we offer compassionate and professional support tailored to your needs. While you rest or address other priorities in your life, you can have confidence your loved one is receiving exceptional care that’s been customized to their needs.

What is Respite Care?

Respite care offers a support system that can make a huge difference for family caregivers in the Salem area. These individuals often find themselves at risk of physical, mental, and even emotional exhaustion. Lately, the term “caregiver burnout” has been used to reflect this phenomenon.

Our services, including elderly respite care, and companion care near you, make the routine of caring for a loved one more manageable by ensuring you have time off to spend caring for yourself. You can choose to utilize this opportunity for a short-term or temporary block of time, or on an ongoing basis to reduce your overall workload.

How Respite Care Helps Seniors in Salem

From standard services such as personal care and companion care to more specialized forms of in-home care, including dementia care and Alzheimer’s care, we can provide a wide range of care types for elderly adults. Respite care for seniors is another invaluable service we offer. We’ll make sure your loved one is matched with a professional care provider who is ready to address their needs through compassionate care.

Examples of how our care professionals assist seniors and their family caregivers include:

• Tidying up the house
• Cooking meals
• Running errands
• Providing emotional support
• Helping with personal care routines
• Offering medication reminders
