EP 161 :: Dementia Care & Respite for All :: Daphne Johnston

Sometimes caregivers just need a break. Daphne Johnson started Respite for All to help them and the ones they care for. RFA’s volunteers are helping improve quality of life for people with dementia while offering peace of mind and respite to their caregivers. It’s a great way to help offset growing social isolation for both patient and caregiver as the disease advances. Plus, the organization's volunteer model provides patients with variety, stimulation, and a welcome change of routine while reducing burnout among caregivers.
