Reliable Respite Care in Dunedin and Surrounding Areas
At ameriCARE of Pinellas, we recognize the difficulties that can come with being a loved one’s part-time or full-time caregiver. It requires a lot of dedication and planning, and at times, it may feel impossible to pass these responsibilities on to anyone else. But self-care is extremely important, too, and that’s where our expert respite care in Dunedin can help. You can hire an in-home respite caregiver to take over care as needed, helping to alleviate your responsibilities while ensuring your loved one is receiving the best care possible at all times.
our respite CARE services include
helping manage complex needs
Whether managing a temporary health condition or caring for someone through chronic illness or hospice, we have plans in place to help bring our in-home caregivers up to date quickly so you can take the time you need to rest and recover. During our discovery process, we will review your loved one’s needs and what you’re doing now to manage the situation and explore ways we can help to improve care while finding ways for you to get the breaks you deserve.
one-time support when you need it
We understand that needs can change quickly, and sometimes, clients require one-time or short-term support, which is why we don’t ask you to book a minimum number of hours to take advantage of our respite care. Based on our experience, however, shifts under 4 hours can be more difficult to fill. Given this, and in order to secure the best caregiving help possible, we offer a premium short-shift-rate approach to encourage fulfillment.
Our respite CARE provides much-needed RELIEF
It is important as a caregiver to take breaks when needed so you can rest and recharge. ameriCARE employs highly qualified and compassionate caregivers to provide flexible respite care relief for those all-important breaks.
Our caregivers can step in to offer the necessary specialized care to your loved one and allow you to take time for yourself to rest, go to work, or spend time with your family and friends. Our respite care services provide family caregivers the time necessary to restore, reset, and relax while putting themselves first.
It’s always better to prepare ahead of time to ensure you give yourself adequate breaks while providing care for a loved one. Work with our care team to create a respite schedule that works for you.
Meal Preparation
Our caregivers can prepare meals, shop for groceries, monitor dietary restrictions, and provide assistance in promoting the health of your loved one while you take a break.
Recreation
Our dedicated team can provide important emotional and social support for your loved one so you can feel confident in stepping away to take care of your own needs.
Transportation
If you don’t have the extra time to help the person in your care make certain appointments or run errands, that’s okay! Our caregivers can be there for transportation while you manage other tasks.
Medical Appointment Support
Our caregivers can accompany your loved one to their appointment and help them and you understand any information or instructions their doctor may give them.
Light Housekeeping
Routine chores can feel overwhelming if you are providing care for a loved one on top of your other responsibilities. Our caregivers can offer much-needed assistance with laundry, dishes, and clean-up, so you don’t have to manage these tasks yourself.
Reading Aid
Our caregivers can help your family member read books, open or read mail, organize paperwork, or mail bills and letters to keep their administrative tasks on track while you attend to your own.
Exercise
Our trained caregivers can jump in and help your loved one with their exercise or physical therapy regimen to help keep them active and engaged while you take care of yourself.
Pet Care
Our respite CARE includes numerous pet services, like dog walking, feeding, transportation, assistance with vet appointments, pet hygiene, and other pet services to keep you, your loved one, and their pet happy and healthy.
