Respite services provide short-term assistance with the duties of family caregiving. You’ll improve your personal well-being and improve your relationship with the person you’re caring for by taking a break from your regular routine and taking some time to unwind, recharge, and refresh.
What is respite care for family caregivers?
Respite care’s main goal is to temporarily relieve primary family caregivers so they can take a much-needed break from their everyday caregiving responsibilities.
Friends, other family members, volunteers, or professional caregivers can offer support. Care can be given in a private home or in a variety of healthcare settings.
Saba Home Health Care of Toms River, New Jersey offer respite care services that give you a short break so you can concentrate on yourself. We’re here to make sure your loved one is taken care of and receives the high-quality care and attention they require while you take a break from your caring duties. We recognize the significance of your loved one. That is why Saba Home Health Care goes above and above.
Our respite care services include respite services:
- Companionship
- Help with basic household tasks, light housekeeping and laundry
- Meal preparation
- Transportation assistance
- Medication reminders
- Help with walking and mobility
- Bathing, dressing and personal hygiene assistance
- Home and community-based services
For us, companion care and respite care go hand in hand. Your kind, competent caregiver will involve you or your loved one in activities that will challenge their mind and body while offering respite care.
Activities can include visiting, reflecting, scrapbooking, puzzles, board games, cards, taking a walk, enjoying sitting outside, reading, using social media, and more. They are adapted to the preferences and abilities of each client.
Our caregivers are the most compassionate and well-trained in the Ocean and Monmouth County area, having worked for a premier organization that has been providing care for seniors and people with disabilities here at the Jersey Shore for decades. We are devoted to assisting you or a loved one to continue living safely and comfortably at home.
Who Pays For Respite Care for caregiving responsibilities?
The majority of respite care is private pay. While some Medicare Advantage plans, government programs like Medicaid (which varies by state), and veterans benefits may cover some home care services, many insurance plans do not. Specific Medicaid programs, such as New Jersey’s Personal Preference Program (PPP) and Jersey Assistance for Community Caregiving (JACC), provide financial assistance, in-home and community-based services, and care management to seniors and people with disabilities. Saba Home Health Care of Toms River, New Jersey can offer assistance in determining what services are required and which payment choices are available to you because certain payment methods have specific eligibility requirements and service limitations.
