What is Flathead Respite Care?
Flathead Respite Care is a respite ministry designed to provide a place of love and community for people living with all types of memory loss, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, stroke, age-related and other dementias. Along with a trained group of generous, caring and capable volunteers, we experience the deep joy of creating a community where people living with memory loss are valued for who they are today.
A Safe Haven
We operate every Monday and Wednesday from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at Bethlehem Lutheran Church where we offer a safe, nurturing environment filled with a variety of thoughtfully chosen activities including brain games, memory stimulation, socialization opportunities, gentle exercise/movement/dance activities, art, music, community service projects and a nutritious lunch.
Care for the caregivers
Many people are choosing to help their loved ones live at home for as long as possible, but caring for someone who is living with dementia can be challenging. Flathead Respite Care is designed to provide “respite”, or relief, for the caregivers and afford them free time so they can run errands, take care of business, or engage in self-care.
