When caring for a loved one, you don't only spend your time helping them get through their day. You also spend your mental, emotional, and physical energy. The only way to replenish that energy is to take time off from your duties. Respite care services from Visiting Angels^® Scottsburg can help make sure your loved one is properly cared for while you rest and recharge.

What is Respite Care?

You may not even be aware that respite care is an option for family caregivers like yourself. Many family caregivers struggle through a demanding schedule and overwhelming responsibilities without ever realizing they can reach out for help from a professional.

With respite care from Visiting Angels Scottsburg, you get to determine how often a care provider visits your loved one. You may want the care provider to step in while you run errands, meet with friends, or even go on vacation. Most importantly, you can have confidence the care provider we pair your loved one with can accommodate their needs and will be compatible with their personality and lifestyle.
