Respite Care Services

Assisting Hands Schaumburg

Providing unofficial caregiver services to a loved one can oftentimes be more physically and emotionally taxing than it is rewarding. While many experience guilt for holding these feelings, they are perfectly natural. We all have our own lives and it can be difficult to adjust to the needs of an aging parent or loved one. This is why our experts here at Assisting Hands provide respite care for elderly services to those in the Schaumburg, IL area.

Respite care services offer informal caregivers a much needed break from taking care of their parents or loved one. Although it is not discussed often, there are striking benefits to taking these breaks. This is in large part due to the following statistics:

  • Over 65 million people in the United States provide informal care to a loved one
  • Nearly 2/3 of the more than 65 million caregivers mentioned above are women
  • Roughly 25% of these caregivers report fair or poor health conditions

The reason for this reportedly poor health is the increased stress that informal caregiving places on an individual. First, the caregiver is attached on a level that a professional caregiver would never be (since the vast majority of informal caregivers are family members). Secondly, they often have their own lives, careers, and children to worry about in addition to these new tasks. Thirdly, the stress and responsibility induced by these factors, and more, can result in lack of sleep and a hectic mind. Now put this cycle on repeat, and you can see where problems develop.

Here at Assisting Hands Schaumburg, we understand what you and your family are going through. This is why we always approach home care services in a kind and personable manner. When you choose us for senior respite care, you can expect the following:

We would also like to note that education and support groups for caregivers are a growing trend. We recommend that you check with AARP and your local chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association.
