Being a family caregiver is a huge responsibility, and there are times it is right to step back and ask for help. That is where HomeHealth24x7® can help with respite care.
Making sure that the needs of your loved one are taken care of can leave you no time to look after yourself, and other family members. We often have our own children to care for, work commitments, and your own health to consider.
Respite for family care givers is an important tool to allow you to get your energy back, have some time off from the stress of care giving, and to put balance back into your life.
Even a few hours can be the difference from being able to go on, and having to forgo the care entirely.
Our Respite Care Services include the following, as well as other services:
Assistance with daily activities
Assistance wtih personal care and hygiene
Performing Housekeeping and Meal Preparation
Laundry
Providing companionship
Incontinence care
Assistance with ambulation
Providing transfer assistance
Ensuring medication compliance
HomeHealth24x7® can provide family caregivers the respite needed from the daily responsibilites and an experienced and trained carer can step into that role.
You can reach out to your local HomeHealth24x7® coordinator with any questions you have about how respite care may help your loved one. We will compare your needs to the qualifications, experience, and personality of our carers, to find the ideal person to assist.
