		==Supports for Caregivers==

		Caring for a loved one can be rewarding, but it is also exhausting and isolating. It is important for caregivers to take breaks and look after their own health and well-being.

		===Respite Services ===

		[https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/health/accessing-health-care/home-community-care/care-options-and-cost/caregiver-respite-relief Respite services] give caregivers temporary relief from the emotional and physical demands of caring for a family member or friend. Respite care can provide opportunities for caregivers and the older adult to participate in community activities.

		Respite services may be provided at home through home support services, in community through adult day services, or through short-term stays in a long-term care home, hospice or other community care setting.

		The criteria to be eligible for respite services is the same as the criteria for being eligible for home care services. Additionally, the need and potential benefit to the caregiver is also assessed.

		There is a cost for respite services. The cost will depend on what respite services a person uses.

		To apply for respite care, contact your local [https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/health/accessing-health-care/home-community-care/how-to-arrange-for-care Home and Community Care office] or ask a healthcare professional to make a referral.
