Respite care is getting a short break from caregiving duties, and it allows the caregiver an opportunity to rest, refresh, and recharge.

Even though many families take great joy in providing care to their loved ones so that they can remain at home, the physical, emotional and financial responsibilities for the family caregiver can be overwhelming without some support, such as respite. Respite provides a much needed temporary break from the challenges faced by the primary family caregiver. Respite can also benefit the Incredible Kid by providing social interaction, a break in their daily routine and an opportunity for new relationships.

Respite Companions provide planned short-term breaks for families and Caregivers. If you are looking for a part-time job or have free time and want to make a difference in an Incredible Kid's life, apply to become a Respite Companion today.
