Respite care is a type of home care designed to relieve family caregivers of their overwhelming responsibilities, ensuring they are well-rested and able to maintain a balanced lifestyle. With visits from our professional care providers in Houston, you can create a schedule of care that allows you to continue supporting your loved one without running the risk of caregiver burnout.

At Visiting Angels^® Houston, we realize what a challenging situation it can be when family caregivers are the only source of support their loved ones have to turn to. Our services make a positive difference by lending assistance as needed to these hardworking individuals and enabling them to have confidence their loved ones are always receiving high-quality care.

What is Respite Care?

Respite care is so much more than a helping hand for family caregivers and their loved ones in the Houston area. We aim for our services to act as a support system for families in need. While other types of home care have care professionals taking on the vast majority of caregiving duties, respite care keeps family caregivers in control but gives them the option to easily take time off.

How Respite Care Helps Seniors in Houston

Our full range of services covers a wide range of caregiving duties, meaning we can help you out no matter what kinds of age-related issues your loved one is dealing with. Companion care, personal care, dementia care, and Alzheimer’s care are all types of home care our professional team can offer.

Here are some of the most common tasks our caregivers provide support with:

• Doing laundry, making beds, vacuuming, and other light chores
• Cooking healthy meals according to dietary guidelines
• Providing prompt medication and appointment reminders
• Offering a helping hand with bathing and grooming
• Conversing with seniors and lending emotional support
