Affordable Caregiver Relief/Respite Care
Looking after a sick loved one is a full-time role for family caregivers. And it's okay to ask for help or take a welcome break now and again. In fact, it may be essential to your own health.

Our respite services are designed to support your wellbeing and strengthen the bond with your loved one when you get back.

Are you a family caregiver who needs a break from caring for your loved one?
Did you know that family caregivers and unpaid carers are twice as likely to experience stress than professional caregivers?
Juggling family caregiving with other responsibilities like a full-time job or caring for children and other family members can have an emotional and physical cost you’ll eventually have to pay. As a family caregiver, sometimes it’s important to take a step back and ensure your own needs are being met. If you’re struggling to find time for yourself while caring for a loved one with health problems, respite care can help.
Respite care providers you can trust
Our respite care services provide you and other families with a much-needed break right when you need it most. We go the extra mile to find the perfect caregiver match to ensure both you and the person you care for are supported. From basic personal care requirements to more specialized care solutions, our trained staff and respite care providers are fully vetted and qualified to support a range of in home care services for your loved one.
Types of respite care can vary. Your respite care provider can assist your loved one with many forms of care from household chores, medical support, companionship care, transportation needs, and more.
GentiCare® respite care philosophy
We believe Happier Aging should include more than basic respite care. Our caregivers can bring your loved one or family member back into the community, allow them to meet up with friends, and provide assistance with their favourite hobbies, faith based services, and planned activities.
