Respite care services offer a lifeline for family caregivers who are overwhelmed by their responsibilities. With this type of home care, Visiting Angels^® Bowling Green makes it possible for seniors and their family caregivers to benefit from short-term care based on a temporary schedule of caregiving visits. That way, family caregivers can take time off as needed without worrying their loved ones’ care will be compromised.

We know how difficult it can be when you’re the only source of support a loved one has. We have also witnessed the immense difference our services can make in the lives of both elderly adults and their family caregivers. If you’re providing ongoing care for a parent, grandparent, or spouse and feel you could use some support, our care providers are ready to give you the helping hand you need.

What is Respite Care?

Respite care offers a reliable support system for family caregivers in the Bowling Green area. With other forms of home care, professional care providers manage the majority of seniors’ needs. In contrast, this type of care keeps family caregivers in charge but offers professional support with certain duties or during certain periods of time.

If you’re one of the 40 million Americans who provide unpaid care for a loved one, you know how exhausting this work can be. Family caregivers are often at risk of experiencing burnout, which can impact all aspects of their well-being, including their physical, mental, and emotional health.

Our professional caregiving services can make your caregiving duties more manageable by giving you time to rest and recuperate. Whether you require regular care visits on a weekly basis or want to take a vacation, our professionals can reduce your workload and give you the chance to spend time caring for yourself.
