Caregiver Relief and Respite Services
Caring for a loved one is an act of love—but it can also be physically, emotionally, and mentally exhausting. At Palma Home Care Services, our Caregiver Relief services are designed to support family caregivers by providing trusted, short-term care for their loved ones, so they can rest, recharge, and attend to their own needs with confidence.
What Is Caregiver Relief?
Caregiver relief (also known as respite care) is temporary, non-medical in-home support that allows family caregivers to take a break while ensuring their loved one continues to receive compassionate, attentive care. Whether you need a few hours of support or extended relief over several days, our caregivers step in seamlessly to maintain routines, safety, and comfort.
Caregiver relief is not about replacing family care—it’s about strengthening it.
