Services
Reliant Respite offers a variety of services to both improve the quality of life for the patient as well as provide some rest for the caregivers.
Often times it isn’t anything really big. It can be such a relief to just have some help, to shorten that to-do list, to get a break.
My Services
I’m here to help you. Let that sink in. Here are some of my most common services, if you need something else don’t hesitate to ask.
Basic Cares
Assist with showering, bathroom visits, and medication reminders. I’m knowledgeable in techniques to safely assist while maintaining dignity for the patient.
Companionship
Aging and illness often is a lonely process, I’ll provide a listening ear for your loved one. Their stories will be new to me and I love engaging with my clients. It is my honor to listen.
Overnights
Ideal for those worried about leaving a loved one alone overnight, but desperate for a good night’s sleep themselves. I’ll keep watch during the night so you can relax.
Doctor Visits
Doctor visits can be difficult to fit in around work and activity schedules, I’ll get your loved one to their appointment and provide you with notes regarding their visit.
Errands
If your schedule doesn’t allow for extra trips to the library, going to the movies, or picking up groceries, let me save you time while also enriching your loved ones time.
Transportation
Life is busy. Driving is stressful. If you are struggling to get your loved one to appointments, treatments, or just out and about, I’m happy to get them where they need to be.
Housekeeping
It is hard to keep up with housekeeping when you’re well and able-bodied, it is especially challenging when you’re not. I can keep your loved ones space clean and tidy.
Cooking
Sometimes cooking feels overwhelming. I provide grocery shopping, meal prep, and cooking services to take that off your plate. Nutritional needs and preferences incorporated.
My Process
1. Reach Out!
There’s no shame in asking for help. Send me a message or give me a call to start the process.
2. Schedule a Consultation
We’ll spend a minimum of an hour discussing your needs. This is a free consultation and a crucial step in determining if I’m a good fit for your needs. If I’m not, I will do my best to provide you with other resources.
3. Schedule Services
If my services fit your needs, we’ll put together a schedule. For some that is daily visits, for others, it is weekly. I do my best to be flexible.
If it has been a while since you’ve had a minute to breathe, I hope you’ll schedule a consultation.
Self-care takes many forms but they all require a bit of time to actually happen and be beneficially. Caregiver burnout is a real thing. Caring for a child with special needs, an aging parent, or an ill spouse is very demanding.
Reliant Respite can provide professional care that will provide you with the peace of mind and the time to relax for even an hour, so you can fill your cup and catch your breath.
A little respite goes a long way.
