Caring for an aging parent or spouse in a town as small and tight-knit as Rest Haven often means doing it largely on your own. With just a few dozen residents tucked along Georgia State Route 13 near Interstate 985, there isn't a large network of nearby agencies or backup family down the street. That's exactly why respite care matters here: it gives you a reliable, local option when you need a few hours, a weekend, or a recurring break.
Cedar Grove Private Home Care is based in nearby Oglethorpe County and serves families throughout Northeast and Metro Georgia, including this corner of Gwinnett County near Buford and Flowery Branch. We send a caregiver to your loved one's home to cover the everyday needs, bathing, dressing, meals, mobility help, companionship, while you step away knowing someone dependable is there. Every visit is planned around your family's routine, not a generic schedule.

Respite care is simply a dedicated caregiver stepping in temporarily so you, the regular caregiver, can rest, run errands, travel, or attend to your own health. It can be a single afternoon, a recurring weekly visit, or coverage during a vacation. Our caregivers can assist with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, transfers, and general mobility, the same hands-on support you'd normally provide yourself.
Beyond physical care, respite visits include companionship, medication reminders, light housekeeping, and meal preparation, so your loved one's day continues as normal. We can also provide non-medical transportation to a doctor's appointment, the pharmacy, or errands in Buford or Lawrenceville if needed during the visit. Each plan is built after a free consultation, so the caregiver knows the household's habits before day one.
Rest Haven is a small community, and we understand that most daily life here actually runs through Buford, which handles the town's planning, zoning, and utilities. Families in the 30518 zip code, and nearby in Oakwood, Sugar Hill, and Suwanee, rely on Georgia State Route 13 and Interstate 985 to get around, and many turn to Buford Hospital for medical care. Our caregivers are comfortable navigating these same routes.
Because Rest Haven sits so close to Lake Lanier and the Rest Haven Municipal Building, it's a quiet, close-knit place where neighbors tend to know each other, which also means privacy and trust matter a great deal when inviting a caregiver into the home. We take that seriously, matching caregivers thoughtfully and keeping communication open with the family throughout every respite visit.
Respite care can be arranged through several payment paths, and we'll walk through what applies to your situation during the free consultation. Many families choose private pay for its flexibility, scheduling occasional or recurring breaks without added paperwork. Others use long-term care insurance policies, and we're glad to help you understand what documentation your policy may require for reimbursement.
For veterans or their spouses, VA benefits may help offset the cost of in-home respite support. Georgia Medicaid waiver programs, including CCSP and SOURCE, can also apply for those who qualify, particularly when respite is part of a broader care plan for an aging or disabled loved one. We're happy to discuss which option fits your family's circumstances and budget.
Some families start with respite care and later realize ongoing support makes more sense, while others only ever need occasional coverage around holidays, medical appointments, or caregiver burnout. Either way, Cedar Grove can adjust the plan as needs change, adding personal care, companion visits, or specialty care without starting the process over.
If your loved one is recovering from an illness, injury, or surgery, respite care can also bridge the gap between hospital discharge and full independence, giving you support while you coordinate follow-up care. We build every plan around the client's actual routine, not a one-size-fits-all schedule, so transitions feel natural rather than disruptive.
Families may pay privately or explore veteran benefits to help cover respite care, depending on their circumstances.
Private pay can offer a straightforward path when family caregivers need time to work, rest, or handle errands. Long-term care insurance may also help with eligible respite services.
Cedar Grove accepts VA benefits for respite care. We can help veterans and surviving spouses understand options such as Aid & Attendance.
I am very grateful for Cedar Grove Private Home Care and am satisfied with how staff go above and beyond.

Yes, non-medical transportation is part of our respite services. A caregiver can drive your loved one to appointments at Buford Hospital, pick up prescriptions, or handle errands in Buford or surrounding areas while covering their regular care needs during the visit.
We aim for consistency and try to match your loved one with a familiar caregiver for recurring respite visits, since routine and comfort matter, especially in a close-knit community like Rest Haven. We'll discuss scheduling preferences during your consultation.
Georgia's CCSP and SOURCE Medicaid waiver programs may help cover respite care costs for those who qualify. Eligibility depends on individual circumstances, so we recommend discussing your situation with us during a free consultation to explore whether these programs apply.
