Service Description:
|
Short-term in-home respite for caregivers in need of support and relief from caring for a senior (55+) living with dementia. A trained PSW recreationist will provide in-home recreation activities to boost their physical and mental well-being while the caregiver receives a much need break to attend to their own self-care needs.
