Expert Skilled Nursing Respite Care: Providing short-term compassionate, supportive and professional care to those in need.
Skilled nursing Respite care is a short-term, temporary stay at a Covenant Living skilled care community. This level of care allows customers family or loved ones who are often primary caregivers to take a break from providing daily care. Respite care is provided by licensed clinical and healthcare professionals. Skilled nursing respite care ensures that the care recipient continues to receive high-quality assistance, medical attention, and specialized support during a caregiver’s absence.
Benefits for Caregivers
Skilled nursing respite offer caregivers a vital opportunity to recharge and attend to their own wellbeing. By entrusting their loved ones to trained professionals, caregivers can temporarily step back from the demands of caregiving, reducing stress and preventing burnout.
This break allows caregivers to focus on their physical and mental health, engage in activities they enjoy and maintain important social connections. This essential support not only enhances the overall caregiving experience but also strengthens the caregiver’s ability to provide sustained and compassionate care in the long run.
Skilled Nursing Respite includes:
- 24-hour skilled nursing care
- Three daily meals, snacks, specialized diets, and dietician support
- Social Services consults and support
- Room and board
- Out-patient therapies (with a doctor’s order)
- Daily scheduled activities and spiritual ministries
- Complimentary Wi-Fi
- Laundry and linen service
- Daily housekeeping
- Semi-private or private room (pending availability)
- Pharmaceutical services
- Beauty and barber services
We are here to help.
Keep in mind that you do not have to be a current resident of a Covenant community to benefit from a Skilled Nursing respite stay. Even though respite care is temporary, it can make a big difference in your healthcare journey. Please call our Healthcare Navigator (877) 525-8036 to learn more.
Working at Covenant Living is more than just a job—it’s a passion shared by our staff, and giving back is at the heart of what we do.
Here’s what an employee at Covenant Living of the Great Lakes has to say about why he donates:
“Every day at work, I hear incredible stories from our residents about the amazing things they’ve accomplished throughout their lives. It’s inspiring to learn about all the extraordinary experiences they’ve had. These stories remind me just how important it is for our residents to feel comfortable and worry-free as they enjoy their twilight years. That’s why I believe it’s essential to ensure they never have to worry about whether they can afford to stay here, whether it’s 5, 10, or even 20 years down the road. They’re all like grandparents to me—I can’t imagine any of them having to leave because of financial concerns outside of their control.”
