he Carle Arbours respite care program
offers short-term, 24-hour care to people who are normally cared for at home by a family
member or friend. Respite care can be used for a variety of reasons - vacations, business
travel, a weekend getaway, or a family emergency. Respite care can also allow a patient
and family a short-term stay to "try out" the nursing care offered at the
Arbours before making a commitment to long-term placement Respite care stays can be
from two days to two weeks or more. This type of care allows the care giver needed time
away, with the peace of mind knowing that a loved one is being cared for as a guest of The
Carle Arbours. |
