Respite Care in Sacramento, CA

Short-term respite care gives caregivers in Sacramento, Lincoln, Rocklin, and the surrounding areas a break from providing care so you can rest, recharge, or focus on other important matters.

Caregiving can be a rewarding and bonding experience within a family, yet in even the best situations, the responsibility and ongoing routine can be stressful and tiresome—especially when balanced with a job or caring for children. 

When family caregivers are emotionally drained, they are likely less effective at playing this critical role. Comfort Keepers Home Care® can provide respite care or temporary relief to those who care for family members who might otherwise require permanent placement in a facility outside the home.

The reality of this, though, can be damaging to the family caregiver and senior's relationship. When a family caretaker becomes too overworked and exhausted, they can end up with compassion fatigue. According to the Compassion Fatigue Awareness Project, "compassion fatigue is an extreme state of tension and preoccupation at the expense of the person being helped, which results in secondary traumatic stress for the helper." Your relationship can become strained and your senior can end up feeling like a burden. Depending on the level of in-home care you provide for your loved one, this could be a reality. Luckily, Comfort Keepers Home Care is here to help.

What is Respite Care?

Known in some countries as “short break” care, respite services provide planned short-term breaks for families and other unpaid caregivers who need time outside the home or to simply take a rest. Our senior care plans help support and maintain the primary caregiving relationship.

How Comfort Keepers Can Help

Respite care services give you time to leave the home for a few hours or even a few days, knowing the one you care for is in good hands. This creates time to

  • take care of the errands you never seem to have time for.
  • Catch up on your shopping.
  • Attend a support group meeting.
  • Visit the doctor or dentist for routine care.
  • Give yourself a much-needed rest.

Comfort Keepers in home care services can be scheduled for as little as a few hours a week. Additionally, around-the-clock care can be arranged so you can take a longer break to attend a wedding out of town, take a child to college, or go on a much-needed vacation. Reach us at (916) 260-0654 to learn more today.
