Caring for a loved one is a labor of love, but even the most dedicated caregivers need a break. Compassionate Arms provides respite care services that give you time to rest, recharge, and take care of yourself—while your loved one receives quality care from our trained professionals.
Respite care is short-term relief care that allows family caregivers to take a break from their caregiving responsibilities. Whether you need a few hours, a day, or longer, our caregivers step in to provide the same quality care your loved one deserves.
Whether you need a few hours for an appointment, a day for errands, or a week for vacation—we work around your schedule to provide care when you need it most.
Our respite caregivers provide the same personal care services you normally provide—bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, and mobility assistance.
Light housekeeping, meal preparation, and other homemaking tasks to keep your loved one's environment comfortable and well-maintained.
Meaningful social interaction, conversation, and companionship to prevent loneliness and keep your loved one engaged and content.
Ensuring your loved one takes their medications on schedule while you're away, maintaining their health routine without interruption.
Take your break knowing your loved one is in capable, caring hands. We communicate with you and follow your care instructions carefully.
Studies show that family caregivers often experience burnout, depression, and health problems. Taking regular breaks isn't selfish—it's essential for providing the best care long-term.
Caregiving is physically and emotionally demanding. Regular respite care helps prevent exhaustion and allows you to maintain your own health and well-being.
Respite care gives you time to nurture other important relationships—with your spouse, children, friends—that may have taken a backseat to caregiving duties.
Medical appointments, work obligations, errands, or simply time alone—respite care gives you the freedom to take care of your own needs.
We're knowledgeable about the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services respite care grant—and we can help you use it.
Michigan offers respite care grants to help family caregivers afford short-term relief care. These grants can cover the cost of professional respite services, giving you a much-needed break without the financial burden.
Many agencies are unfamiliar with this grant, but we're not. Our team can guide you through the process and help you use your grant funds before they expire. Just ask—we're here to help.
"I had a difficult time finding an agency that was familiar with the respite care grant from MDHHS. After contacting nearly 10 different agencies—many of which didn't return my calls or had no knowledge of the grant—I finally reached out to Compassionate Arms Inc. Reeven was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the grant process. He guided me through what was needed so that I could start using the grant funds before they expired."- Priya N.
"Ashley, our Compassionate Arms representative, went above and beyond to assist us. She not only helped us but also supported our caregiver. Her exceptional communication skills and follow-through were truly appreciated."- Carolyn
"I was provided a list of home help agencies by MDHHS. Reeven is SO friendly and SO helpful. He immediately took action, communicated through the entire process and got us exactly what we needed incredibly fast. I can't say enough good about Reeven and his company."- Janis H.
