Senior Care In The Commonwealth Of Virginia
At Always Best Care of Richmond, we offer care to people who find it difficult to care for themselves. You might be surprised to learn, though, that some people offer our services for free. If you’re not one of these people who offers caregiving services for free, you might wonder who would do this.
If you are one of these people who offers free caregiving services, then you’re probably the family member or close friend of an elderly or disabled person. Many adult children care for their parents. Many neighbors care for their friend next door. Whatever your situation, caregiving for a loved one is something we at Always Best Care of Richmond respect tremendously.
We know how difficult caregiving can be. We share the same goal that all caregivers have: to help elderly Virginians live healthier and better lives. Unfortunately, it’s not possible or practical to care for a loved one all the time. That’s why we at Always Best Care of Richmond offer respite care.
What Is Respite Care?
A respite is a break. If you care for your loved one, you deserve—and will eventually need—a break. But respite care isn’t only for when family caregivers need to relax and go on vacation. You’re likely to have other obligations in life that might preclude you from caregiving for a period. For example, you might have a work trip, an exam, or you might be moving homes. These situations might require your attention for extended periods of time.
There are also emergencies and health issues that may arise. For example, you can’t care for your elderly parent if you, your spouse, or your child has a significant health situation. Whether you want to do something fun, like a family holiday, or you have a health matter of your own, we can step in and provide the care your loved one requires.
