Respite Care in Nashville, TN and Surrounding Areas

Respite care gives you a break to focus on other important matters

Caregiving can be a rewarding and bonding experience within a family. Yet in even the best situations, the responsibility and ongoing routine can be stressful and tiring—especially when balanced with a job or caring for children.

When family caregivers are emotionally drained, they are likely less effective at playing this critical role. Comfort Keepers ® can provide respite care or temporary relief to those who care for family members who might otherwise require permanent placement in a facility outside the home. To discover how we can help, call us at (615) 219-5126.

What Exactly is Respite Care?

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

How We Can Help

Respite care 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 good hands. This creates time to:

• Take care of the errands you never seem to have time for
• Catch up on your shopping
• Attend a support group meeting
• Visit doctor or dentist for routine care
• Give yourself a much-needed rest

Respite care can be scheduled for as little as a few hours a week. Additionally, around-the-clock in home care can be arranged so you can take a longer break to attend a wedding out of town, take a child to college, or go on a much-needed vacation.
