Respite Care: Support for Family Caregivers
When a loved one requires care, the instinct to shoulder all responsibilities is common. However, caring for a parent, sibling, spouse, or another loved one is a significant challenge. Balancing their care alongside your other life responsibilities can be physically and mentally taxing. We understand this strain, and that’s why we provide respite care for you and your family.
What Is Respite Care?
Through our respite care services at CEDAR GROVE PRIVATE HOME CARE, our professionally trained and bonded/insured caregivers can seamlessly assume the responsibility of caring for your loved one temporarily. This affords you the opportunity to enjoy a coffee date with a friend, watch a movie with your children, or take a well-deserved nap. During your break, you can have peace of mind knowing that your loved one is receiving attentive and respectful care.
If you find yourself overwhelmed by the responsibilities of caring for a loved one, know that you’re not alone. A report from the National Alliance for Caregiving and the AARP reveals that approximately 53 million American adults serve as unpaid caregivers, with the majority tending to relatives. When you’re ready for relief from caregiving duties, CEDAR GROVE PRIVATE HOME CARE is here to provide assistance.
