Home Respite Care, Inc. is a nonprofit organization started in June of 1993.

We are a non-medical program. We provide relief for caregivers and family members who are assisting someone who is frail, ill or incapacitated, lives alone, or may be suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. This is a confidential and supportive program for persons in all of Oconto County.

The program compliments services provided by our client’s health care team, to help them to remain in the home for longer periods of time. We work closely with Oconto County, home health agencies, the Alzheimer’s Association, hospice, Wisconsin Adult Day Services Association, and many other agencies and organizations to keep us informed of new and changing ideas and programs may better serve our clients.

Our programs are provided by trained volunteers, trained staff and caring individuals. We are dedicated to providing the caregiver with emotional support, physical relief, peace of mind, practical information, and to preserve the dignity and well being of our senior citizens. We believe in serving all individuals regardless of the ability to pay.
