Respite Care

What is Respite Care?

Respite care enables family caregivers to take much-needed breaks and focus on their personal lives while ensuring their loved ones continue to receive compassionate personal care.

Our Respite Care Services

When our caregivers visit, they will quickly put your loved one at ease by engaging in friendly conversation and providing assistance with a wide variety of home care needs. Our caregivers can help your loved one with dressing, bathing and other personal care needs. They can also help around the house performing simple chores and preparing healthy meals.

Our services provide temporary support whenever and however you need it. As a result, you’ll have time to step away for a few hours, run errands, or even just go have fun. Not only will your emotional health benefit from respite care assistance, but your overall relationship with your elderly or disabled loved one can improve as well with our Avon home care services. The care we provide makes it easy for your loved one and can help relieve the anxiety or guilt you may feel.

It’s important for every caregiver to balance both the needs of the individual and their own. If this delicate dance is not performed correctly, it’s all too easy for a caregiver to “burn out,” leading to lack of sleep, imbalance in lifestyle, or overall decreased happiness.  Help at home in Avon, CT and nearby communities offers a flexible solution that is both effective and affordable.
