At Assisting Hands Home Care, we provide respite care services to provide relief for family caregivers who care for a loved one in North Olmsted, OH. We can give family caregivers time off to rest and handle personal matters while our licensed caregivers take over providing care.
Many seniors are choosing to age in their homes instead of leaving to get care at a facility, but they may need care to stay in their homes. In some cases, families may have a relative that can provide the care they need. Family caregivers benefit those receiving care because they already have a close relationship with them and a good understanding of their condition and care needs. However, it is common for family caregivers to be overworked and susceptible to burn out, stress, depression, and health issues.
Assisting Hand Home Care provides respite care services in North Olmsted, OH to provide relief for family caregivers. We will create a respite care plan and schedule so that our caregivers arrive at regular times to take over the care for your loved one and give the family caregiver some time off. Our caregivers will provide quality senior care that accommodates the needs of your loved ones.
Family caregivers may have difficulty caring for themselves and managing their personal matters because of the amount of time they spend caregiving. Many family caregivers experience a lack of sleep, stress, and burn out and are at high risk for health problems and depression. The family caregiver will get time away from caregiving to take care of themselves and their personal businesses with help from our respite caregivers.
Importance of Respite Care
People who provide informal care for a loved one need to get enough time off to care for their own health and manage personal affairs involving their immediate families and careers. However, many family caregivers have difficulty finding time to take off and may have feelings of guilt for leaving their loved ones. When you work with Assisting Hands, our respite caregivers will provide effective elderly care for your loved ones so that family caregivers can feel more comfortable about taking time off.
The following statistics show why family caregivers need the help of respite caregivers:
- There are 65 million family caregivers
- Women make up two-thirds of family caregivers
- One-fourth of family caregivers report fair to poor health and many struggle with stress, burn out, and depression
