Family caregivers often need a lifeline. Our respite care services offer a reliable support system for those who feel overworked or overwhelmed by the responsibility of caring for a loved one. At Visiting Angels^® of Saratoga, we’ve seen our services make a difference for family caregivers who are on the brink of burnout. You can count on our professional care providers to go the extra mile to help both you and your loved one live your best lives.

What is Respite Care?

Respite care differs from other forms of home care in a number of ways. Rather than a professional caregiver conducting the majority of care tasks, family caregivers will continue to conduct these duties with professionals stepping in every now and then as needed. This type of care consists of short-term care visits and care plans for temporary needs.

As a family caregiver, you can have our care providers fill in for you when you want to go on vacation or set aside a few hours away from your role on a weekly basis. You can also use these services to reduce your overall workload, meaning you’ll continue to care for your loved one but won’t have to manage their full range of needs.

How Respite Care in Saratoga Helps

Our care providers offer a number of specialized services including personal care, companion care, Alzheimer’s care, and dementia care. Whether your loved one has advanced caregiving requirements or simply needs supervision and social interaction, you can trust us to accommodate their needs.

Tasks our care providers often perform include:

• Offering prompt reminders for seniors to take medications
• Cooking meals and going to the grocery store
• Assisting with activities of daily living such as bathing or showering
• Conversing with seniors and providing emotional support
• Doing light chores and helping keep the house tidy
