In-Home Adult Respite
Trained personal support workers and/or volunteers are available to meet the needs of the client and offer the caregiver some relief from the stresses of caregiving for a few hours or shifts of care. Respite may include homemaking services, recreation and stimulation activities.
Why it Matters:
Caregivers of family members with dementia or other chronic illnesses frequently shoulder the responsibility of care 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We can help caregivers by providing a temporary rest from their caregiving responsibilities, giving them time for themselves.
