Respite Care in Weldon Spring: 3 Benefits For Seniors

When a family member is looking after a loved one, a robust support network can make this far more sustainable in the long term. That's where Visiting Angels® Greater St. Charles comes in. Through respite care services, we offer assistance to family caregivers across Weldon Spring and the surrounding region. We make it simpler to take time away on a temporary or part-time basis, or simply to get assistance with a care workload. 

It may come as a surprise, but this type of service isn't just beneficial to family caregivers—it can also help seniors, too. Let's take a look at how.

3 Respite Care Benefits For Weldon Spring Area Seniors

Having professional care can bring a world of benefits for seniors and family caregivers alike. Here are a few ways that seniors can benefit:

  • Social connection. For seniors, loneliness and social isolation is sadly an increasing risk. It doesn't just affect overall mental health—it can even cause physical health problems, too. One of the wonderful benefits of home care is having companionship, emotional support, and social connection for your loved one. The same caregiver can be expected with every visit, so seniors can benefit from meaningful relationships with their care professional.
  • Easing guilt. Lots of seniors grapple with enormous guilt and stress when a family member is looking after them. They may feel like they're a burden, or they may be self-conscious about asking for help when you're already doing so much. By bringing in respite care services, you can ease their minds while making sure they have trusted and reliable support. You can also take time away to rest, so they can see that you've had an opportunity to recharge.
  • Sensitive support. As your loved one's needs evolve, they may become more self-conscious about asking for help. Tasks like bathing and toileting can be highly sensitive. Often, seniors feel embarrassed to turn to family members for assistance. Fortunately, in-home care in Weldon Spring offers an easy solution. Our caregivers can offer empathetic support for these types of personal care tasks and more.
