Respite Care Services

Many families take on the duty of caring for their elders when they reach their golden years. There are a number of benefits of having a family caregiver for the senior loved one, but this can have a big effect on their stress levels and time spent for other activities. Family caregivers in this situation are left with little time to address their own needs as long hours spent caring for their senior loved one can take a toll on their physical and mental health. When family caregivers are consumed in caring for their senior relatives, they are left with little time to attend to their own needs, including sleep and focusing on their careers. This is why it’s important for them to have time off to rest and take care of their own matters. Assisting Hands Home Care is available in Illinois & Wisconsin to provide professional respite care services to relieve family caregivers of their duties. We will create a detailed schedule for our caregiver to arrive and take over before sending one of our trained professionals. This will help the family caregiver rest and catch up with other responsibilities.

Long and Short-Term Respite Care

Family caregivers can improve their well-being by taking time off from their duties. Even for these individuals, it’s important for them to rest knowing their senior loved one is receiving proper care. Here are some proven facts on respite care:
  • Two-thirds of informal caregivers are women
  • 65 million Americans provide informal care for a loved one
  • About 25 percent of family caregivers are affected by lack of sleep, stress, depression and/or other health issues.
Family caregivers without respite caregivers face a higher risk of health issues if they work long hours to meet a demanding schedule. This schedule will contribute to a lack of sleep and make them vulnerable to a number of mental and physical problems. This can be even worse if the caregiver doesn’t have time for their careers or their own children.

How to Help Elderly Parents When They Have No Money

The average life expectancy stands at just over 77 in the U.S., meaning people are living longer than ever before. While some seniors have saved enough to enjoy their “golden years,” others face significant financial challenges. This can place a heavy burden on both aging individuals and their families, especially if health issues limit their ability to work or manage expenses.
