Respite Care

caregiver assisting her patients in walkingEveryone needs a break

It’s easy for primary caregivers to experience burnout while caring for a loved one. Everyone needs a break. On Call Care Services recognizes that and offers respite care, a special maintenance and supervisory service that temporarily relieve the primary caregiver from the emotional and physical burden of daily tasks.

As Wikipedia points out, “caregivers themselves may face serious health and social risks as a result of stress associated with continuous caregiving. Three fifths of family caregivers age 19-64 surveyed recently by the Commonwealth Fund reported fair or poor health, one or more chronic conditions, or a disability, compared with only one-third of non-caregivers. Respite has been shown to help sustain family caregiver health and wellbeing, avoid or delay out-of-home placements, and reduce the likelihood of abuse and neglect.”

Rest and Recharge

The role you’ve taken as a family caregiver is an important one. Your loved one and other family members depend on you. As the primary caregiver, not only do you deserve an occasional break, but also it’s really necessary so you can recharge your physical, spiritual and emotional batteries. It’s critical that you take the time to care for yourself — doctor’s appointments, regular physical exams, counseling sessions or support group meetings — to ensure you’re not getting rundown and that you’ll be up to the challenges of this daunting responsibility.

A Vacation from Worries

The caregivers of On Call Care Services® are ready to step in with the same considerate care and concern for your loved one’s needs so you can get away for any reason. Whether you need to shop, attend a child’s school event, go to church, get some much needed exercise or just have lunch with a friend, our respite care services allow you to relax and enjoy, knowing your family member is well cared for in your absence. Our respite care program is also a wonderful solution when you go on vacation, travel for the holidays, or attend an out-of-town event such as a wedding or reunion.

Tailored to Meet Your Needs

On Call Care Services can provide respite care daily, weekly or as needed. We are happy to arrange care for just a few hours, overnight or 24-hour care while you’re away.

Find Time for Yourself

Our service gives you time to relax, pursue activities that give you joy and rediscover yourself. While respite care can’t change your loved one’s situation, it can help you maintain your sense of being and significantly improve your ability to deal with the situation and handle challenges in a positive way.
