If you care for a loved one, you’ve probably experienced one of life’s highest honors and simultaneously greatest challenges. An estimated 53 million adults in the United States are caregivers. Of those, 26% have experienced difficulty coordinating care. One in four caregivers find it difficult to care for their own health. Remember, you’re not alone. You may have more options than you realize.
A personal care respite stay can benefit both the caregiver and the person receiving care in many ways.
While staying at home with a caregiver may be the ideal long-term option, with personal care respite, loved ones gain:
You are important, too! Caregivers also benefit from respite:
Asking for help when you need it (and better yet, before you need it) is an act of love that benefits everyone in the long run.
Chapel Pointe is a faith-based continuing care retirement community. We commit each day to serving and enhancing the quality of life for people aged 62+ in Central Pennsylvania. We’re honored that our greater community sees the servant-heart of our nonprofit organization and consistently selects Chapel Pointe as “The Best of Cumberland County.”
Sometimes, everyone needs a little extra help. During a four-week respite stay at Chapel Pointe, experience quality care, delicious meals, and every benefit of living in the personal care Homestead. Bird-watch from the gazebo, take a quiet moment in the chapel, join a friend for games in the sunroom, meet up for lunch in the dining room, feed the outdoor turtle, or play some tunes on the living room piano.
