Respite Stays for Memory Care in South Setauket, NY

The Gift of Time.

The National Alliance for Caregiving reports that some 63 million Americans provide care for an older family member. They average over 24 hours a week providing assistance, with roughly 22% providing high-intensity care requiring 41 or more hours each week.  

Being a caregiver is rewarding, but the physical and emotional stress from these ongoing demands can strain even the most resilient person. Sometimes you need extra help, or even some time to take care of yourself.
