SERVICES FOR THE DEVELOPMENTALLY DISABLED

Our in-home respite program is designed to provide families with capable temporary relief from the on-going responsibility of caring for a person with developmental disabilities.

Cambrian's respite caregivers are well trained and duly experienced. Each caregiver is required to have the following, at a minimum:

• Verifiable work references
• Previous caregiving experience
• Clear all criminal background checks
• Completion of our twenty (20) hour respite training course
• CPR/First Aid Certification

All caregivers are bonded and insured. Cambrian is responsible for all state and federal taxes.

When in partnership with the local Regional Centers, the program provides a monthly authorization of hours for respite in the home.

Scheduling is done to meet the family and client’s needs. These needs may include personal care, fun play times/leisure activities, behavior management and other diagnosis specific activities. Cambrian caregivers wear photo ID tags for your security and their proper identification.

Many of our caregivers are bi- or multi-lingual. By matching client and caregiver culturally, a bond of trust develops which helps the client and family communicate with ease. Cambrian also has a unique "tell a friend" program that may suit your needs. Be sure to ask when you call for services.
