Respite care provides family members breaks from the daily routine of care giving. It can relieve stress, restore energy and promote the necessary balance in one’s life. Whether it’s for a few hours or a long vacation, Interim can provide the support and relief needed.
We will often arrange for a free in-home evaluation to discuss the type and length of respite care needed, and a plan of service will be developed. There are a number of options for additional support.

Respite Care Services: A Gift to Yourself and Your Loved One
Coping with the declining health and quality of life of someone you love brings with it a host of challenges.

Don’t feel guilty if your role as a caregiver has taken its toll on you, and you think you need some time for yourself. In reality, a tired and stressed-out caregiver who’s neglecting his or her own health to look after someone else is really putting everyone in danger.
