Caregiving for a loved one who is receiving hospice care can be physically and emotionally demanding. It is important for caregivers to take care of themselves in order to be able to provide the best possible care for their loved ones.

Here are a few tips for self-care for caregivers:

  • Get enough sleep.
  • Eat healthy foods.
  • Exercise regularly.
  • Ask for help when you need it.
  • Take breaks.
  • Do things that you enjoy.
  • Join a support group for caregivers.

It is also important to remember that you are not alone. There are many resources available to help caregivers, including support groups, counseling, and respite care.

Testimonials

I am more than happy with the amount of support I received with Vantage. My aunt who recently passed from cancer on Monday was sent to hospice three weeks prior to her passing. I was left in charge of all her care and I decided to choose Vantage based on reviews. I cannot thank you guys enough for allowing my aunt to live her last days comfortable and without pain. Thank you all for your help. Special thank you to the nurses who took care of her during her last weeks "Raynata, Sequana and Angelica." I also want to point out their Chaplin Fr Raphael as he went several times as requested and made my aunt feel at peace.

This is our first time to use a hospice care facility and we are more than pleased with the wonderful care we are receiving from Vantage Hospice. We have a great care unit that we rely on...and they are extremely professional, caring, and loving. It is with profound love from my family that we highlight two employees, Chantelle and Monica. Monica is the main caretaker with my husband. He relates to her exceptional humor, uplifting and caring comments. You can tell she loves her job...the love she gives to him and us. She is definitely an asset to Vantage Hospice.

Love Vantage. I used them as a resource during my time in elder care, and everyone from their physicians to their social workers to their chaplain to their nurses were outstanding with great bedside manner. They genuinely loved the people that we love most. Can't ask for more than that. I can't recommend them highly enough.
