Respite care by Comfort Keepers of Guelph, Ontario is there to assist the family caregiver
Being the only family caregiver for an older relative or friend can be rewarding, but it also has its challenges. The majority of people are unaware of how demanding and tedious caring for aging parents can be. These problems can worsen if you are trying to raise a family on your own while working. You may be surprised to learn that you are not alone; over 44 million persons in Canada are taking care of a loved one. When a family member depends on you for care, it’s important for you to look after yourself as well. Comfort Keepers® of Ontario offers respite care in this situation.
