Our Faith-Based Approach to Short-Term or Respite Care

Our Approach to Respite Care

Bethesda Gardens’ short-term or respite care stays provide temporary care and housing in a furnished assisted living apartment. We offer caregivers a safe place for their loved ones while they are away for business or vacation—or just need a break from the physical demands, stress and challenges of caregiving.

All the Benefits of Assisted Living

Respite care is ideal for individuals who want to try out our community without a long-term commitment—but who may want to transition to permanent assisted living. Our respite services are a great option for seniors recuperating from a recent hospital stay or illness who need temporary care from a qualified staff.

Physical Care, Social Connections

Our goal is to provide as much independence as possible while still maintaining a strong safety net and supervision to meet the needs and preferences of each resident. Assistance ranges from personal care, such as help with dressing and bathing, to medication management or arrangement of medical appointments.

In addition to physical care, our residents enjoy a great deal of social interaction. Whether it’s shared meals at our restaurant-style dining hall, games to keep their minds sharp or one of our many extracurricular activities, Bethesda Gardens residents maintain an active social life to nourish them body and soul.

Nurturing Environment

We provide personal care services, enriching activities and wellness programs to promote senior independence and quality of life. We focus on an active lifestyle, and our team serves as caregivers and advocates for seniors by providing an environment that allows our residents to thrive.
