Explore respite care before the need becomes more urgent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working a full-time job, managing children, and caring for an older or disabled loved one doesn\u2019t leave much time for you. It\u2019s easy to burn out or neglect your own wellbeing without noticing, which in turn makes it harder to look after everyone else. The good news is that help is often closer than you think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group blog-key-takeaways\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<style>\n.blog-key-takeaways{\nborder-radius: 10px;\n    padding: 20px 60px 10px 50px;\nbox-shadow: 0px 0px 15px -3px #00000029;\n}\n.blog-key-takeaways h3 {\ntext-color: #004976;\n   margin-bottom: 10px;\n    font-size: 24px;\nfont-weight:700;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_75 counter-flat ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/homewellcares.com\/in-home-care-mi-ann-arbor-mi265\/blogs\/what-is-respite-care-a-quick-guide-for-family-caregivers-2\/#Key_Takeaways\" >Key Takeaways<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-key-takeaways\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Takeaways\"><\/span>Key Takeaways<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Respite care is a flexible, short-term break for caregivers, typically provided by a local in-home care agency,&nbsp;an adult day center, or a healthcare facility.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Being proactive is key when it comes to preventing burnout, so start researching your respite care options now before the need is urgent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Although temporary, the switch to respite care can sometimes be stressful for the care recipient. Involving care recipients in the decision to find respite care can help ease the transition.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-respite-care\">What is respite care?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Respite care is a short-term break for caregivers, provided by a local in-home care agency,&nbsp;an adult day center, or a healthcare facility. They\u2019ll take over responsibility for your loved one, while you take a break to rest up or do things you need to do. Respite care is typically flexible. You can book a few hours a day, or several days at a time, often at short notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal is for you to recharge, or take care of your other needs, to be an even better caregiver when you return. Your loved one can benefit from a change in routine, and the variety of having someone else involved in their care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-when-should-i-consider-respite-care\">When should I consider respite care?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Be proactive and research your options now. It\u2019s better to recharge early and regularly than to wait until you feel burned out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even when things are going well, a sudden scheduling conflict, illness or work trip can derail your family\u2019s caregiving arrangements at short notice. By talking to your local care providers early, you\u2019ll be prepared when these situations arise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-if-i-don-t-feel-okay-going-outside-my-family-for-help\">What if I don\u2019t feel okay going outside my family for help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest barriers to finding help is the worry that no one else can provide the level of support, care, and love that you do. Try reframing it this way: you\u2019re not replacing yourself; you\u2019re finding the best short-term alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, taking a break makes&nbsp;you&nbsp;a better caregiver. Taking care of yourself, or reconnecting with friends, gives you the recharge you need to provide better support and care in the long-term. It\u2019s essential for your wellbeing and for the person you\u2019re caring for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-will-my-loved-one-feel-about-respite-care\">How will my loved one feel about respite care?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For many care recipients, the idea of a professional caregiver feels like a loss of choice: another person to restrict their options and tell them what to do. To help put your loved one\u2019s mind at ease, involve them early in the decision, starting with a&nbsp;<mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-awb-color-custom-2-color\">family home care consultation<\/mark>&nbsp;focused on their concerns and goals. Your loved one may discover unexpected benefits to look forward to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, they may want to be more involved with daily activities like checking the mail, walking the dog, or preparing food. Many family caregivers, pressed for time, simply take care of these tasks for their loved ones. An agency caregiver has time to walk to the mailbox with them, help them fold laundry, or operate the oven and measure out ingredients for a cooking session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In talking through their goals, your loved one can see how a caregiver can be a welcome, friendly companion who is there to empower them, not restrict them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-i-choose-the-best-respite-care-provider\">How do I choose the best respite care provider?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on where you live, your options may include\u00a0<mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-awb-color-custom-2-color\">local home care experts like HomeWell&#8217;s<\/mark><a href=\"..\/..\/respite-care\/\"> <\/a><a href=\"..\/..\/respite-care\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">respite care services<\/a>, day centers, and other facilities.
