Respite Care Services in Edmonton, AB & Surrounding Areas

Comfort Keepers of Edmonton, AB provides supportive respite care for family caregivers

Serving as the sole caregiver for a loved one can be a rewarding experience, but it can also be a stressful, demanding responsibility, particularly respite care. Family caregivers are not alone, though. It is estimated that nearly 44 million Americans (predominately Baby Boomers) regularly care for an elderly relative.

With so many people depending on them, it is crucial that caregivers take the time to care for themselves. No matter how much they love the people they are caring for, caregivers require regular breaks to perform at their best. That is where Comfort Keepers’ respite care, referred to as “short break care” in some countries, can help. We provide professional in home care for seniors and other adults who require assistance to temporarily relieve caregivers so they can see to other matters such as the following:
