Respite – Care for the Caregiver

Whether it’s for other obligations or simply to take a much needed break, there are any number of reasons at-home caregivers need “time off” from the intensive demands of caring for a loved one. Ohio Valley Manor's Respite Care Program provides the temporary support and relief you need, and gives you peace of mind knowing that your loved one is well cared for while you are away.

Respite care services include 24-hour nursing care, dietary, social activities, laundry and housekeeping services. Enjoying nutritious meals, meeting new friends, scheduling some time at the in-house beauty salon and many other activities keep short-term residents involved and their spirits high, and Respite care enables caregivers to return with renewed energy and a fresher outlook. 

If you're a caregiver for a loved one, perhaps you have already learned that taking care of yourself is very important.  If you're exhausted, you aren't able to be as responsible as you want to be.  We can help.
