Respite Care Services in Kitchener & Waterloo, ON

Easy-to-schedule respite care services for family caregivers throughout Kitchener, Waterloo, and the surrounding area

Caring for an elderly loved one, no matter how rewarding, is a lot of hard work – at times, it can be both physically and emotionally exhausting. Many family caregivers struggle to maintain a balance between their personal lives, career, raising children, and caregiving. All these responsibilities can easily become too much for one person to handle, which is why we offer respite care options for family caregivers.

At Comfort Keepers, our respite care is geared toward providing you with reliable interim visits whenever you need short-term support. Occasionally scheduling professional assistance allows you to take good care of yourself, prevent caregiver burnout, and ensure nothing unexpected happens to your loved one when you are away.  

What Are Respite Services?

Respite care, also known as short-break care in some countries, provides care recipients with planned, short-term visits so that family members and other unpaid caregivers can take time off. It also helps nurture the primary caregiving relationship.

How Comfort Keepers Can Help

We are here to step in and provide expert respite care for your aging loved one, regardless of whether you need to leave home for a few hours or are planning a two-week vacation. Our loving caregivers can provide the following services:

In Home Care 

• Companion Care – our caregivers are dedicated to building strong relationships with the clients in their care. Our care services include assisting with daily living, participating in their favorite activities, going to their favorite parks or restaurants, and more
• Senior Transportation – our care services include transportation assistance for seniors who want to go out and about. 
• Interactive Caregiving – our caregivers are there to uplift seniors’ lives and ensure they have the best quality of care for their entire health

Specialized Care 

• 24 Hour Care – this service is especially useful for older adults who have safety concerns, may be bedridden, or live with a chronic condition. Our caregivers work in shifts to provide safety and comfort for your loved ones during the night. Around-the-clock care not only helps the individual needing services but also provides concerned family members with peace of mind
• Dementia Care – our memory care services allow a person with dementia to remain where they are most familiar and comfortable: home. 
• Post-Hospital Care – this is our transitional care program that can help older or disabled adults who are about to be discharged from the hospital

The best thing about opting for respite care is that you can resume caring for your loved one refreshed, relaxed, and with determination to be the best caregiver you possibly can.
