Caring for a loved one at home is rewarding but can also be physically and emotionally demanding. Respite care provides family caregivers with the chance to step back, recharge, and trust that their loved one is still receiving compassionate attention. Allowing caregivers to take a break helps maintain balance, prevents burnout, and ensures quality care continues at home.
