Respite Care in Rochester
If you are a primary caregiver for an aging family member and feeling overwhelmed by your duties, you may want to consider respite care services from Visiting Angels® Rochester.

Why Choose Respite Care from Visiting Angels Rochester
Supporting an aging loved one can take an enormous toll on your mental and physical health. It's easy to neglect your own care in favor of your loved one, and that can result in stress and caregiver burnout. Burnout occurs when you become extremely overwhelmed or exhausted. It can lead to anxiety, depression, and even resentment of your loved one. Burnout can also make it difficult to properly care for your loved one, and they may feel guilty or unhappy seeing you in this state.
With professional care from Visiting Angels Rochester, your family member can get the care they need while you get some much-needed time for yourself. As a team of local caregivers, we understand the sacrifices you make each day. Providing care for a loved one can leave little time to maintain friendships, spend time with your family, and pursue a career. Our services can help you achieve a more balanced lifestyle.
Types of Respite Care for Rochester
At Visiting Angels Rochester, we know that a one-size-fits-all solution simply doesn't work. That's why we customize our care to each senior we serve. With input from you and your loved one, we can create a care plan that incorporates the types of assistance they need when they need it. If their needs change, we can simply update their care.
Here are some of the in-home services we can provide for local seniors:
- Assistance with light housekeeping duties
- Medication reminders
- Friendly companionship
- Meal planning and preparation
- Running errands and grocery shopping
- Providing safe transportation for appointments
- Fall prevention and mobility assistance
- Respectful aid with personal care tasks
Once we have discerned what type of assistance your loved one requires, we will work with you to finalize a care schedule. Respite care can act as a one-time solution or as ongoing support. Our caregivers are available around the clock, making it possible for your loved one to receive care at any time. This includes evenings, weekends, and holidays.
At Visiting Angels Rochester, we offer the following respite care schedules:
- Temporary Care. If you need to be away for an extended period of time, one of our professional caregivers can take care of your loved one.
- Part-Time Care. If you require ongoing help every week, we can set up regular care for your family member. Our flexible schedules are easy to update.
- Support Care. If you need more intensive support with daily care duties, this cooperative model allows a caregiver to work alongside you to meet your loved one's needs.
The benefit of enlisting our customizable care is having the ability to change it as needed. Your loved one's care needs are likely to change as they age. Your respite needs may change and develop as well. Our team can easily alter the care plan and schedule of caregiver visits accordingly. Whether this means increasing or decreasing services and visits, we are happy to help.
Choosing Visiting Angels Rochester for your respite care needs will bring you peace of mind. Our approach to in-home care ensures your loved one will receive seamless care from our caregivers while you are away.
