When caregiving for a loved one becomes as much of a challenge as it is a reward, you may be looking for a support system to help you feel less overwhelmed. Respite care is an excellent option for unpaid family caregivers in Seymour who want to enjoy time off from their responsibilities without constantly worrying about their loved one's safety or well-being while they are away.

At Visiting Angels^® Seymour, we know firsthand that caring for a loved one comes with many challenges. Family caregivers often encounter emotions that are difficult to grapple with, physical challenges, and a sense of complete exhaustion. Unfortunately, ongoing exposure to the demands of caregiving can lead to burnout. Only by taking the time to invest in self-care can family caregivers protect their own well-being and their ability to provide reliable support for their loved ones.

What is Respite Care?

With respite care services from Visiting Angels Seymour, you can arrange to have a care professional take over your duties for a temporary period. Our clients often request our services when they want to go on vacation or need to handle an urgent situation in another area of their lives. We are also available to schedule regular visits that give family caregivers frequent breaks from their caregiving responsibilities.
