Respite Care at Whittier Health Network

The daily care and medical needs of a family member can be overwhelming and
exhausting, especially during the holiday season. If you are a caregiver and
in need of a much deserved break, please contact one of our nursing homes to
inquire about our Respite Care Services. We provide 24 hour a day nursing
care to address a variety of medical needs. Semi-private and private
accommodations are available on a bed availability basis. Meals, laundry
services and activities are included. Most importantly, you can be assured
your loved one is receiving compassionate care backed by Whittier's
reputation for delivering quality healthcare throughout New England for over
26 years.

Please feel free to contact one of our nursing homes for more detailed
information regarding respite care.
