What Is Respite Care?

Respite care offers short-term relief for family caregivers who need time to rest, recharge, or attend to other responsibilities. Whether it’s a few hours during the week, overnight care, or occasional full-day coverage, respite support ensures your loved one continues receiving the care they need — while you take care of yourself.

Our in-home respite services are non-medical and personalized to meet the unique needs of your family. We step in when you need a break, with compassionate caregivers who deliver the same respectful support you would provide yourself.

Why Caregivers Need Respite

Providing daily care for a senior parent, spouse, or loved one is no small task. Over time, it can lead to physical fatigue, emotional stress, and even burnout — especially when you’re juggling work, parenting, or your own health challenges.

Taking time away isn’t selfish — it’s essential. Respite care gives caregivers permission to rest, knowing that their loved one is in capable, caring hands.

At Kindred Care, we believe you can’t pour from an empty cup. We’re here to support the supporters.

Benefits of In-Home Respite Care

Respite care isn’t just about stepping away — it’s about restoring balance, preserving health, and maintaining a sustainable caregiving routine. Here’s how Kindred Care’s services can help:

Peace of Mind for Families

Our caregivers are trained, trustworthy, and committed to delivering consistent support. You can leave the house or rest without worry, knowing your loved one is in safe hands.

Reduced Caregiver Burnout

Regular breaks prevent physical and emotional exhaustion. Respite care helps you stay energized, focused, and emotionally available to your loved one.

Flexible, Local Support

Whether you need a few hours a week or a full day every month, we work around your schedule. We proudly serve families in Beaumont, Drayton Valley, Wetaskiwin, Leduc, and nearby areas.

Better Quality of Care

Caregivers who take time to rest often return with greater patience, focus, and emotional capacity — improving the long-term care experience for both you and your loved one.

Support for Life’s Other Responsibilities

Sometimes you need time to work, attend appointments, care for your children, or simply go for a walk. Respite care helps you live your life while still supporting your loved one’s needs.

What Respite Care Looks Like

Our respite care services are designed to fit your schedule, your routines, and your loved one’s preferences. Depending on your needs, we can assist with:

  • Companionship and supervision while you’re away

  • Personal care support, including bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting

  • Meal preparation, light housekeeping, and medication reminders

  • Routine check-ins and mobility assistance

  • Engagement in conversation, games, or hobbies

  • Overnight or weekend coverage, when available

Whether your loved one needs hands-on support or just someone to keep them company, we’ll match you with a caregiver who’s attentive, reliable, and experienced.
