Companion Care in Wall: How We Help Manage Caregiver Stress
When dad started needing help with groceries, laundry, and other tasks around the house, you were happy to step in. After all, he’s supported you throughout your life, and you saw helping him as a chance to return the care he's provided you. Only now his needs are growing. Where you used to stop in once a week, now you’re at his house more than your own, and you’re having a hard time keeping up. You’re starting to wonder whether the companion care services available from Visiting Angels® Wall, NJ can help.
Accepting You Need Companion Care in Wall
At Visiting Angels Wall, we understand it can be difficult for family caregivers to accept they might need help from companion care services. Family caregivers may see it as their duty to care for their aging loved ones, and they may see relying on a caregiver as a failure of their own abilities.
While you may have a strong desire to provide care and support to your loved one as they age, offering this type of care all on your own is not always possible. Family caregivers are often left to balance providing care with work, family time, and social commitments. They may be putting their loved one’s needs before their own, skipping meals, exercise, and sleep in order to keep up. These sacrifices are not sustainable.
Caring for a loved one without respite can leave family caregivers stressed, exhausted, and unable to provide the care their loved ones need. Relying on companion care services is a way for caregivers in Wall, Manasquan, and the surrounding areas to receive respite and support while ensuring their loved ones always receive the care they need to thrive.
