When your duty to care for a loved one begins to negatively affect your own well-being, it's time to take a step back and reassess the situation. One way to ensure you have time for self-care while continuing to assist your loved one is to get started with respite care. This type of home care is available from the trusted care providers at Visiting Angels^® View Park, and it gives family caregivers a much-needed lifeline when they feel exhausted or overwhelmed.

What is Respite Care?

At our local care agency, we believe respite care is so much more than a distinct type of senior home care. It is also a support system for unpaid family caregivers who may not realize they don't have to carry the burden of caring for a loved one alone.

Through these services, we can give you time off to tend to your other priorities or get the rest, relaxation, and alone time you've been craving. You'll never have to worry that you're compromising the quality of your loved one's care as they will be supported by one of our compassionate team members.

You can determine how often you want to benefit from professional care visits. Some family caregivers prefer to have care visits at regular intervals that enable them to enjoy frequent breaks from a particularly grueling schedule. Others choose to set up care when they need to go out of town or want to plan a long-awaited vacation.
