Respite Care Service has various meanings and interpretations. It helps provide some relief to family caregivers or spouses. Hopefully, giving them time to do errands or go to appointments. Also, a chance to re charge from the draining experience of being a full-time caregiver.
This service can occur in many forms. Adult day care, hiring a paid Personal Care Agency or hiring another home care assistant. Because respite care is typically partial and incomplete in nature, they often leave the bulk of the care & coordination for the full-time caregiver or spouse to handle.
