Caregiver Benefits

Respite

Providing respite, periods of rest, and relief, from caregiving duties is an essential component to enhancing the health and wellbeing of caregivers. Enrollment at ElderHouse reduces the daily physical and sometimes emotional strain of caring for an aging relative. Respite can be offered 2 to 5 days per week.

Reduced Stress

ElderHouse is open Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 3:30pm helping working caregivers retain employment. Knowing your loved one is safe at ElderHouse while you are at work can increase job productivity, reduce daily stress, and provide peace of mind.

Counseling and Referral

Private counseling is available at no charge to family members by phone or by appointment. Our staff social worker can assistant families in addressing day-to-day issues, connecting families to outside services, and planning future care options.
