Respite Care – Why You Need It & How To Get It

If you're caring for a loved one with memory loss, respite care is vital to your well-being. Tune in to hear why it's important and how to make it happen. Caring for yourself is one of the most important things you can do as a caregiver. When your needs are taken care of, the person you care for will benefit too. Respite care provides family caregivers with temporary relief from day-to-day caregiving tasks, varying from a few hours to several weeks. Respite services can be provided through in-home care agencies, adult day services, facilities that allow short-term stays, and individuals you hire directly or from friends and relatives willing to volunteer. Tune in to this episode to learn who you can access for many respite care options. Help! I need a break!
