Respite care can be a great option if you're having trouble managing the role of caregiver by yourself. Respite care is a short-term service provided by a health care agency that gives a primary caregiver a break from providing care. This service comes in many forms, but the true intention is to give the caregiver a break and/or prevent burnout. This service will allow you some much-needed "me time" so you can recharge.
