Is It Time for a Break? What Caregivers Need to Know About Respite Care

In this heartfelt episode of the Daily Senior Safety Advice Podcast, host Esther Kane — a retired Occupational Therapist, Certified Aging in Place Specialist, and Dementia Care Specialist — speaks directly to family caregivers who may be running on empty. Esther walks listeners through what respite care really means, why so many caregivers resist asking for help (and why that resistance is costing them), and what the signs of caregiver burnout actually look like. She also offers practical guidance on exploring respite options in your community and shares a compassionate message for older adults who may be reluctant to accept additional support.
