Adult and Senior Care Services
LAP Respite Center provides In-Home care services to families who live in Clinton, Eaton, and Ingham Counties, who care for adult or senior family members who have disabilities or age related conditions. Saundra Fitzpatrick-Fryer, the LAP Adult Program Manager works with each family to develop an individualized care plan for this person. This unique plan is used to utilize a variety of creative methods to encourage, stimulate, and focus on the challenges facing each family household.
LAP realizes that as people age they may have the need for extra help, yet it may also be very important to them to stay in their own home. At times this daily care requirement may be difficult for family members to handle when they must go to work every day, frequently travel, or if they live out of town. LAP Respite Center offers a service that can provide the needed daily care for the adult person by our trained Respite Care Providers who come to your own home. With the flexibility of our programs, LAP staff can work with family members to develop a plan that fits your family needs.
LAP sets high expectations of our Respite Care Providers to deliver quality care and to offer the needed support of daily living to your family member with respect and dignity.
