Respite Support for Caregivers

You’ve Been There for Them, Now We’re Here for You

Caring for a loved one can be deeply meaningful, but it can also be physically and emotionally demanding. Our palliative care in Winnipeg includes respite support that helps protect your presence, giving you time to rest, recharge, and focus on being family rather than only a caregiver.

Whether you need a few hours of relief or ongoing assistance, our caregivers can step in with compassionate palliative care that supports both you and your loved one.

Their compassionate team helped with daily activities, medication reminders, mobility support, and companionship so he could stay safe and comfortable in his own home.

My Dad fractured his ankle, had surgery- and he couldn’t put any weight on it for 6 weeks., he is single no one close to help (I live in Saskatchewan) the Grace Hospital failed to set my Dad up with the proper homecare from being in the hospital, so when I came down to Winnipeg I knew I had to find someone for him right away- I googled “homecare in Winnipeg” and Partners in Homecare” was the first one that popped up., I’m SO thankful I picked them., I called later on a Friday- they listened to me & were there to help immediately no problem at all, Ama came out the very next day, assessed my Dad., and they started right away. I felt so much better knowing my dad was in good hands, he has loved having Neelam come check on him daily. It has been so great. I highly recommend them 100%, if anyone is in need.

My husband was recovering from a sudden illness,surgery and hospitalization . I had an out-of-country trip planned. Partners for Home Care responded quickly to my request and put a plan in place to cover the care needed while I was away. All of the health care aides who came to provide the assistance needed were reliable, caring , capable and conscientious. We were both super-pleased with the service .

We had an excellent experience with Partners for Home during a really stressful time for our family. We were trying to arrange home care in Winnipeg for my parents after a hospital stay, and their team made the process clear and manageable from the first conversation. The caregivers were professional, kind, and reliable, and they took the time to understand our situation rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution. Communication was strong throughout, and we always felt informed and supported. What stood out most was the genuine care and respect shown to my parents. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were safe and well cared for at home. I would confidently recommend Partners for Home to anyone looking for in-home care services in Winnipeg.

We live in Winnipeg and have used Partners for Home Care for two different family members. Coming back to them the second time gave us immediate peace of mind, because we already knew we could trust their caregivers. They were compassionate, reliable, and communicated clearly, which helped reduce a lot of stress during a very emotional time. Knowing our loved ones were safe and genuinely cared for made all the difference for our family.

My husband has Alzheimer's and fell, breaking 2 toes, requiring him to wear a boot for 6 weeks. I hired Partners for Home to assist in looking after him while I was away from our home. Their service was outstanding, anticipating our every need and making sure my husband was very well looked after. I can't recommend them enough!

Why People Trust Partners for Home Care?

FAQ

What is palliative care?

Palliative care provides physical, emotional, and practical support for individuals living with serious or life-limiting conditions. The goal is to enhance comfort, maintain quality of life, and help people remain safely at home while receiving the support they need.
No. It can support individuals living with cancer, heart failure, COPD, dementia, ALS, Parkinson’s disease, and many other life-limiting conditions. It focuses on comfort, symptom management, and quality of life, regardless of diagnosis.
Yes, it can be provided in the comfort of home, including 24/7 support when needed. We can also coordinate alongside healthcare providers and publicly funded programs such as the WRHA Palliative Care Program. Every family begins with a no-cost in-home assessment and has the opportunity to meet their caregiver before services begin.
Palliative care can begin at any stage of a serious illness and may be provided alongside treatment, while hospice care is typically focused on comfort and support during the final weeks or months of life when curative treatment is no longer the priority.
Some services may be available through Manitoba Health and the WRHA Palliative Care Program. Partners for Home Care provides private home support that can complement publicly funded programs and help address needs that may not be covered. We offer a free in-home assessment to help families understand their options.
We understand that needs can change quickly. In many cases, assessments can be arranged within the same week, and urgent situations may be accommodated sooner when possible. Following your assessment, you’ll have the opportunity to meet your caregiver and begin services as soon as a personalized plan is in place.
