Happy National Caregivers Day!
Caregivers, you give so much every day—today, give yourself the best gift: a break! The most powerful way to recharge is to plan for respite care. Whether you need a few hours or a few days, respite lets you rest, restore, and return refreshed. NO GUILT!
Here are some tips on how to find respite care in your state & county:
Visit the National Respite Locator: Go to https://archrespite.org/caregiver-resources/respitelocator/and enter your state and county to see verified providers near you.
Contact Your Local Area Agency on Aging: They can connect you with trusted respite care options and funding programs.
Ask About Funding: Medicaid waivers, state grants, veterans’ benefits, and private insurance may cover respite- ASK!
You deserve rest. Make today the day you plan your respite. Share this post to help another caregiver find support!
