Support This Isn't Just for Your Loved One

Providing the many care services your elderly loved one needs can bring with it a certain amount of satisfaction. At the same time, the sheer amount of work this requires can sometimes become a little too much to handle. Rather than succumbing to the stress, there is nothing wrong with reaching out for a little help.

Comfort Keepers of Durham, NC, can help with our at-home respite care program and services. Our professional caregivers are available to help without making it look like they are trying to take over. They offer a range of personal care and homemaking services designed to give you a little "respite" from all the hard work.

Making Time to Talk About a Caregiver

Given that most seniors don't want anyone outside of their immediate family to see that they are struggling and need help and difficulty sharing their privacy with a "stranger," it's no surprise that they are hesitant to talk about care in the home. Here are a few tips we've found that make getting started a little easier:

  • Make your questions as directly as possible.
  • You must realize you aren't likely to succeed after the first conversation
  • Be sure you emphasize that you will not abandon them and will continue being their primary family caregiver.
  • Focus your conversations on the many benefits for you and your loved one.
  • Be sure you listen to the concerns and points of view
  • Do your homework and be ready to offer several options and any potential care services

No Need to Worry

If you are worried that our at-home respite care services and caregivers will not be able to "fill your shoes," our goal is to prove that you have nothing to worry about. We know you are doing your best to be there for your loved one. From here, the next step is to find a way to step back for a few minutes and take care of yourself.
