Respite care improves outcomes

Caregiving can take a toll on caregivers, both physically and mentally. At Caregiver Homes we understand how important it is that caregivers receive support to maintain their own wellbeing, so our care teams work to ensure that families have a plan in place to allow the caregiver to take breaks for rest and recuperation.

Three quarters of families in the Caregiver Homes program use services that provide temporary relief to a primary caregiver, known as respite care services. These include alternate caregivers and adult day health programs.

Despite having more complex health situations, care recipients in families who use respite care services remain in the community an average of 3x longer than those who don’t (900 days compared to 300 days).
