Family & Respite CareAged care respite services provided by HCA
HCA provides access to professional family and in-home respite care. Whether you need extra support for a few hours or a longer break, we can help you with a variety of respite services with or without the presence of the primary caregiver.
In-Home Respite Care
Sometimes you may need some time to visit friends, run errands, or rest a bit. We’ll keep your loved ones comfortable at home and take them out to their social events such as bowling clubs or family gatherings on your behalf and give you peace-of-mind knowing they’re well looked after.
We provide overnight in-home respite care in cases where you need to travel or be away from your loved one for longer durations. Overnight respite is also a way of giving yourself a break from caregiving so you are able to catch up on sleep and get some rest while being assured that we are taking care of your loved one.
We know that pets are an important part of the family. From help with feeding and washing to taking them for walks, we want to make sure they’re as happy as you are.
