Respite care
Respite care that provides peace of mind
Respite care at home provides a much-needed break for caregivers who are dedicated to taking care of their loved ones. Whether it’s caring for an elderly family member, a child with special needs, or someone with a chronic illness, being a caregiver can be physically and emotionally demanding. Respite care offers temporary relief by providing professional assistance and support in the comfort of the individual’s own home.
Our respite care services are designed to give caregivers time to recharge and attend to their own needs. This break is crucial for maintaining the overall well-being of caregivers. Many caregivers experience high levels of stress, exhaustion, and burnout due to the demanding nature of their responsibilities. Respite care helps alleviate that burden and allows them to take care of their own physical and mental health.
One of the significant advantages of respite care at home is that it offers personalised care tailored to the individual’s specific needs. The caregiver’s duties can be transferred temporarily to a My Horizon Care professional caregiver who is trained to handle the unique requirements of the person being cared for. This ensures that the individual receives high-quality care and attention, even when their primary caregiver is away.
