Respite Care Services from Comfort Keepers in Hickory, NC, and Surrounding Areas

Our trained caregivers can provide your loved one with quality respite care while you take a well-deserved break

Providing at-home care for a loved one – helping around the house and ensuring mom or dad has everything they need – is a beautiful, rewarding experience. At the same time, it can be stressful and tiresome in certain situations. Most primary caregivers are adult children with their own families, and when caring for a loved one paired with raising kids and working a full-time job, it can be simply too much for one person to handle on their own. After all, you have to take good care of yourself to be able to care for someone else, right? Comfort Keepers can offer support if you singlehandedly care for an aging parent who lives independently at home. Our respite care services can provide temporary relief whenever you need to take some time off from your caregiving responsibilities. Call us at (828) 202-3009.

What is Respite Care?

Respite services, also known as “short break” care in some countries, provide short-term breaks for family members and other unpaid caregivers while their loved ones receive high-quality assistance at home. It is a service designed to nurture and support the primary caregiving relationship within the family.
