Caring for an aging loved one is one of the most rewarding — and exhausting — roles anyone can take on. Whether you’re helping with daily routines, managing medications, or just providing companionship, it’s easy to forget that you need rest too. That’s where respite care from Visiting Angels Everett comes in.
We offer both hourly and overnight respite care to support family caregivers in Everett and surrounding communities. But which one is the right fit for your situation? Let’s explore both options to help you make an informed decision.
Understanding Hourly Respite Care
Hourly respite care is a flexible, short-term solution for family caregivers who need breaks during the day. It’s ideal for those who are juggling caregiving with work, errands, or simply need time for themselves.
Care visits can be as short as a couple of hours, and caregivers can help with:
-
Personal care tasks like bathing and dressing
-
Preparing meals
-
Light housekeeping
-
Medication reminders
-
Providing companionship
This type of care is perfect when you need a few hours to attend an appointment, meet a friend, or simply take a well-earned nap. It’s also cost-effective since you only pay for the time you use.
What Is Overnight Respite Care?
Overnight respite care provides peace of mind when your loved one needs monitoring and support during the nighttime hours. It’s an excellent solution if your family member has trouble sleeping, is prone to confusion at night, or if you simply need uninterrupted rest.
An overnight caregiver stays in the home throughout the night, remaining alert to respond to any needs that arise. This service is especially helpful for:
-
Individuals with Alzheimer’s or dementia, who may wander at night
-
Seniors recovering from surgery or illness
-
Families attending an out-of-town event
-
Caregivers who need deep, uninterrupted sleep to recharge
With overnight care, you can sleep soundly knowing your loved one is safe, secure, and cared for.
Choosing What’s Right for Your Family
Both hourly and overnight respite care offer tremendous value, but the best option depends on your unique circumstances.
Choose hourly care if you need:
-
Daytime flexibility
-
A break for work, errands, or personal time
-
Help with daily routines or light tasks
Go with overnight care if:
-
Your loved one wakes often or needs help during the night
-
You’re caring for someone with memory loss or mobility issues
-
You’re feeling sleep-deprived or planning to be away overnight
