Respite Care
Let us help you! One of the greatest challenges a family can face is trying to
make a home for a family member who has physical and/or cognitive disabilities or who suffers from the frailties of aging. The constant daily stresses of caring for a loved one with special needs is overwhelming. Caregivers often sacrifice their own health and well being as they provide a home and try to enhance the quality of life for their loved one. For this reason overnight respite care is the most requested and needed family support service. At St. Ann Center we provide comfort, care and companionship for adults with special needs age 18 and up in a safe home-like setting. We care for a variety of individuals and needs. We are able to care for guests that require a Hoyer lift for transfer, those that may need help with feeding and many other care needs determined through our thorough assessment.
