Respite Care in Durango, CO & Surrounding Areas

Rest, recharge, or focus on other important matters with respite care at home in Durango, CO, Farmington, NM, Aztec, NM and surrounding areas

Respite care is a temporary relief to those who care for family members who might otherwise require permanent placement in a nursing home or assisted living facility outside the home.

At Comfort Keepers of Durango, CO we fully understand that caregiving can be an extremely rewarding experience and an opportunity to strengthen bonds within a family. Yet we also know that in even the best scenarios, the responsibilities and ongoing routine can be stressful and tiring—especially when balanced with a job or caring for children.

Are you a family caregiver for a loved one? Could you benefit from taking a break from providing care, even for just a couple of hours? Respite care is a great solution; call us today at (970) 515-7055.

When family caregivers are emotionally drained, they are likely less effective at providing the attentive care their loved one deserves.

What is Respite Care? 

Known in some countries as “short break” care, respite services provide planned short-term breaks for families and other unpaid caregivers who need time outside the home or to simply take a rest. Respite care helps support and maintain the primary caregiving relationship.

How Comfort Keepers Respite Services Can Help

Respite services give you time to leave the home for a few hours or even a few days, knowing the one you care for is in the hands of professionals. This creates time to

• take care of the errands you never seem to have time for.
• catch up on your shopping.
• read a new book.
• attend a support group meeting.
• visit the doctor or dentist for routine care.
• give yourself a much-needed rest.
