Debunking Caregiving and Respite Care Myths

Myth: Respite care is only for when the care recipient is over 65.

Truth: Respite care is for people caring for people with disabilities or extended needs across the lifespan, including childhood, young adulthood, and the aging process. We often don’t realize how many caregivers we have in our midst, because they are also parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, siblings, and spouses.

Myth: “There are no respite programs in my area.”

Truth: Even if formal health care or respite care organizations are not available in your area, there are many other forms of respite care available. Family, friends and neighbors can help out. Even some faith-based groups or civic organizations have informal or volunteer-based respite programs.

Respite is a short break for caregivers. It is the opportunity for a caregiver to step away, knowing their loved one is well cared for, by bringing in substitute care. Finding respite is possible; it sometimes just takes a little creativity.
