Alzheimer's Care
Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s disease can be an overwhelmingly time-consuming, physically-demanding, and emotionally-draining undertaking, and time off is frequently needed to prevent burnout and relieve stress. Alzheimer's respite services provide the primary caregiver with a break from care-giving duties.
ResCare HomeCare understands that caregivers occasionally need a little time for themselves to address their own personal responsibilities, pursue their own interests and relationships, take vacations or business trips, or simply have the opportunity to rest and renew the spirit. If you are caring for someone with Alzheimer's disease, Alzheimer's respite can be an indispensable service for you and your family.
Depending on the level of need, ResCare HomeCare offers certified nursing aides or direct support professionals who will come to your home to provide oversight, care, and support to the dependent person so that you may leave the home for a specified period of time to attend to your own needs.
ResCare HomeCare caregivers and direct support professionals are trained in accordance with state licensing rules and regulations, undergo criminal background checks, have provided satisfactory references prior to employment, and are fully insured.
Depending upon your needs, ResCare HomeCare can provide Alzheimer’s respite services on a regularly scheduled or an as-needed basis. We can provide anything from a one-hour visit to full 24-hour support, with many options in between. Visit minimums vary by location. Contact the branch office nearest you for more information about Alzheimer's respite services available in your area.
