We know how difficult it can be to balance your own life with your loved one's needs, and we are here to help give your loved one the high-quality care they need as they age in place.

If you are one of the many millions of unpaid family caregivers across the country, don't hesitate to turn to our care agency for assistance. We are committed to acting as the support system you need to maintain your own well-being while helping your loved one stay safe at home.

What is Respite Care?

Respite care is often delivered through short-term or temporary care visits for seniors who are aging in place. When they have the assistance of a care professional, their family caregiver can step away from their duties for a stretch of time. Having guilt-free time off makes it possible for family caregivers to go on vacation, run errands, or invest in self-care. When they return to their role, they can do so with more energy in the tank and a greater capacity to be an excellent caregiver. 

How Respite Care Helps Seniors in Chula Vista

One of the main goals of our services is to help family caregivers in the Chula Vista area avoid feeling burned out. Burnout is common among caregivers, and only by taking a step back from a hectic schedule to focus on your own needs can you ensure you escape its negative effects. 

While you are taking time off, we will support your loved one through personalized services such as:

• Respectful help with personal care routines
• Medication reminders and accompaniment to appointments
• Meal preparation and light chores around the house
• Assistance with engaging in hobbies and social activities
• Running errands to the grocery store or pharmacy
