Respite Care
Many caregivers dedicate much or most of their free time to taking care of
their elder family member. In an increasingly mobile society where some
family members have an increased burden and very little chance to go
anywhere, do anything, or even have a family vacation.
Respite care allows caretakers to allow temporary or occasional time off to
recoup emotionally, handle other family tasks or get away for awhile.
Respite strengthens the ability of families and primary caregivers to continue
to provide care in the home. Occasional relief supports family stability and
well-being. Respite is often referred to as a gift of time.
