What is respite care? Respite care is different from the services normally provided by senior living communities by virtue of them being of a shorter duration. At Rittenhouse Village At Valparaiso, we offer quality respite care for your loved one as and when they require it. For instance, if a caregiver is going to be away from home for a period of time, they can place their loved ones in respite care until their return. Also, your loved ones might also opt for respite care while they are recovering from a surgery or other medical procedures which require close monitoring.

The Respite Care Program

Oftentimes, a caregiver often feels guilty about sending their loved one to respite care. However, doing so can be particularly important to a caregiver’s health, and subsequently, their ability to continue to care for their loved one. At Rittenhouse Village At Valparaiso, we understand that as a caregiver, it can be very difficult to take some time off for yourself. However, doing so is encouraged as it allows you time to rest and recharge, which can in the long run actually improve your caregiving capabilities.

With our Respite Care program, you can be assured that your loved one is in good hands. Our professional and experienced Respite Care team members will do their utmost to care for them, allowing you to take a break without having to worry. All our Respite Care residents have access to the resort-style amenities as the rest of the Rittenhouse Village senior living community, including assisted living services, delicious and healthy meals and exciting activities and events. Apart from our Respite Care program, we also offer assisted living apartments and a safe and secure SHINE® Memory Care neighborhood.
