SERVICES - RESPITE CARE

Smiling woman in chair Caregivers play a special role in our lives. Most give up untold and uncounted portions of time and energy and even sacrifice their personal lives in an effort to provide what is needed. They do all this because they care and because they are, in many instances, the only ones available to do so.

Caregivers need care too, however, and respite services exist to give a little back to those who give the most. EduCare understands all that caregivers give up, and that occasionally caregivers need a little time for themselves, too. Respite services allow caregivers the time to pursue their own interests and relationships, and the time to address personal responsibilities and maybe just a chance to renew the spirit and get some rest! Respite care is beneficial not just for the primary caregiver but also for the person receiving care who, with respite, has the opportunity to establish new relationships, improve social skills and work towards a higher level of independence. For a day or for longer periods, as needed, respite care can be an indispensable service for families and caregivers.
