Oregon Respite Care: We Will Help You Take Care of Your Loved One

For many, the challenges of caring for a loved one are part of daily life. Care giving is a demanding, difficult job and no one is equipped to do it alone. Getting help is essential for your health, and your resilience is critical for your loved one.

Seeking support and maintaining one's own health are key to managing the care giving years. Using respite care before you become exhausted, isolated, or overwhelmed is ideal, but just anticipating regular relief can become a lifesaver.

Planning your Relief

Oregon respite care provides short term breaks that relieve stress, restore energy, and promote balance in your life. Working with family members or friends may be difficult, but there are many respite care options and strategies that you may not be aware of.

Planning starts with analyzing needs... both yours and your loved one's. As a caregiver, is support what you need most? Some free time? Help with transportation? Keep track of your daily activities then make a list of the areas and times when you most need help. Identifying your loved one's requirements, abilities, and preferences will also help you find the right match. Are social activities primary? Assistance with walking, eating or medications? Mental stimulation? Exercise?

At Avamere Rehab of Junction City we'll encourage your loved one to socialize and take part in daily activities and outings with other residents. In fact, many Oregon respite care residents thoroughly enjoy their stay with us, as though it were a holiday, and look forward to returning to our community.

So rest assured that your loved one will return home as refreshed as you do. Contact us today to check availability for Oregon respite care in a respite care facility for seniors.
