Respite Care in Philadelphia

In an ideal world, we would always care for our sick, elderly, or disabled family members by ourselves. However, this is not always possible, as most of us have work, children, and personal lives that are simultaneously vying for our time and attention. Respite care in Philadelphia can help fill in the gaps when we need to take a break from caring for our loved ones round the clock.

What Is Respite Care?

Respite care is a service that provides hard-working family caregivers with relief by taking over their caregiving duties temporarily. In this way, those same family caregivers get the time they so desperately need to fulfill other obligations or, at the very least, take a physical or mental break. 

Who Can Receive Care from a Respite Care Provider?

While older and disabled adults make up the bulk of individuals who receive respite care, they are certainly not the only ones. Many respite care providers are well-equipped to care for individuals who can’t care for themselves due to their struggles with the following health problems:

  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Vision problems
  • Dementia
  • Alzheimer’s disease

Respite care providers have received the training necessary to help individuals with nearly anything, from bathing and eating to rendering medical and exercise assistance. For these reasons, respite care providers are a godsend to individuals whose family members don’t have the time or capacity to care for them round the clock. And because most respite care providers, including Right Aid Home Care Agency, accept private insurance, Medicaid, and Medicare, the out-of-pocket cost associated with receiving this level of personal care is extremely low or zero.

Choosing the Best Respite Care Provider Possible

Allowing your loved one to be cared for by someone that isn’t you is not easy, but, at some point, it does become necessary. When that time comes, it is best to choose a respite care provider that can meet your needs and the needs of your loved one. Some of the things you should consider when deciding on a possible respite care provider include

  • Whether or not they are open to following specific instructions
  • The education, training, and skills a respite care provider possesses
  • Whether or not a respite care provider has experience caring for individuals with similar needs as your loved one
  • Whether or not the respite provider provides transportation services
  • Whether or not the respite provider has received the training necessary to handle emergencies, such as power outages, sudden choking, and slips and falls

Indeed, a lot of time and effort goes into choosing the best possible respite care provider for your sick, elderly, or disabled family members. But most would agree it is time and effort well spent when you find a provider who is passionate about their job and someone that you and your loved one can trust. For more information on respite care in Philadelphia and how to choose the best provider for your loved one, consider contacting Right Aid Home Care Agency today.

Care with Compassion

But when and how do you decide when to begin with the services of senior medical care? Usually, you as a caregiver or a family member are just coming to terms with the fact that you yourself are finding it difficult to take care of your elderly loved one and are unable or unwilling to send them to a nursing home. Displacing a senior from their home, a familiar and safe space that has been carefully tended to for years, can be troubling for them and can even be a traumatic experience that can impact them deeply. Research indicates that when seniors continue to live in a familiar place like a home or a neighborhood, their quality of life, from a psychological viewpoint, improves massively. A senior’s mental health is of the utmost importance, not only for you as a caregiver or a family member but for us as the professionals as well. In the long run, home care assistance for the elderly can be a better option and a home health aide can prove to be both a companion and confidante for your elderly loved one when visits from either end prove to be difficult.
