Respite Care

Respite care is a type of temporary care that provides relief to the primary caregiver of an elderly or disabled person. In the context of in-home care, respite care can be provided by a trained professional who comes to the client’s home to take care of them while their regular caregiver takes a break.

Respite care in home care can be particularly beneficial for caregivers who need time off to attend to their own personal needs or to avoid caregiver burnout. It can also be helpful for the client, as it provides them with an opportunity to interact with someone new and receive care from a fresh perspective.
