Our Respite Care Services

Respite care can mean many things. Respite care can take the form of a friend or family member watching a loved one for a couple hours while the primary caregiver runs errands, or it could mean hiring professional caregivers to provide care for periods of time throughout your week. Elite Home Care typically offers the latter, providing primary caregivers with a break at their convenience, each week. Our team of DHEC caregivers take on respite clients who are looking for weekly or monthly routine short-term care, which includes watching a loved one while the primary caregiver works every day or watching a loved one at our day centers so the primary caregiver can have time to themselves.

Benefits of Respite Care

There are many benefits of respite care, particularly for the primary caregiver, but also for the person receiving care. Primary caregivers feel guilty for asking for help, however, its usually the best thing they can do for their mental, emotional, and physical health. Primary caregivers are oftentimes family members, which is taxing on familial relationships and on their minds and bodies. Respite care can benefit a primary caregiver by giving them a moment to rest and regain the emotional capacity needed to continue providing exceptional care.


Respite care is also a good thing for the people receiving care as it allows them more social connection and allows them to utilize a different person for help running errands, cleaning and more.
