You cannot pour from an empty cup

Most family caregivers go years without a real break. Respite care is professional coverage so you can rest, travel, work, or handle your own appointments.
 

• Coverage for a few hours, a full day, overnight, or a week

• Planned relief on a regular schedule

• Short notice coverage when something comes up

• Full personal care while you are away: bathing, dressing, meals, medication reminders

• Companionship and supervision so your loved one is never alone

• A detailed handoff when you return, so you know how the time went
   

Rest is not a luxury
Caregiver burnout is the most common reason families move a loved one out of the home. Taking breaks is part of keeping them there.​
