In–Home Respite

In-Home Respite offers temporary relief to primary caregivers to have personal time away from the everyday stresses and duties of being a caregiver. The caregiver may use respite time to enjoy leisure activities, take an overnight trip and have “me time” with the knowledge that their care recipient is well cared for by a compassionate and caring attendant. Arrangements for limited 24 hour and overnight care may be provided for caregivers when planned in advance.

Services for the care recipient may include:

  • Companionship
  • Supervision
  • Services noted in Personal Care, Housekeeping and Attendant Care
  • Other routine duties normally provided by the caregiver
