Although caring for a loved one can be rewarding, it can also be demanding and exhausting. Our on-site Respite Care Program provides short-term relief for primary caregivers, while ensuring that your loved one is cared for by a team of health care professionals. Our skilled nursing facility is equipped with compassionate staff available 24/7 to help ensure that individuals receive appropriate care, including medication management, wound care, and other skilled nursing services in a comfortable and homelike environment. St. Camillus offers a convenient, valuable support system for caregivers in a safe, secure and structured environment – offering peace of mind and a much-needed break.
In addition to the St. Camillus’s Respite program, we’ve partnered with Nascentia Health to offer the Caregiver Respite Program. This program is supported by the NYS Office for the Aging and provides temporary relief to family caregivers in Onondaga County based on eligibility requirements.
