It is common for senior citizens to receive care from a family member when it is possible for a relative to step in and provide care. Family caregivers spend their time in the home of their loved ones, providing the care they need to remain in their homes as they age. Caring for a family member is a demanding job, however, and the long hours that family caregivers put in can have a detrimental affect on their health and personal lives.
The long hours and high levels of stress that are common among family caregivers can lead to a lack of sleep which makes family caregivers vulnerable to physical and mental health issues. Family caregivers may not have time to spend with their children or focus on their careers and it is common for informal caregivers to experience depression. Having a family member care for an aging loved one has its benefits, but it is important for the caregiver to have some time off to rest and deal with personal matters.

We will establish a schedule and care plan so our licensed caregivers can relieve the family caregiver and allow them to take some time off.
